"I've done car sharing and fractional ownership before and the only way I'd go back is if you could guarantee car availability and it cost less than owning your own car. Those were the two big road blocks in my experience and I don't see them going away in the future. \n\nMany people want cars at the same time, whether you're talking about time of year (summer and holidays) or time of week (weekends) or time of day (rush hour commuting times). So availability will still be an issue. \n\nAnd with car subscriptions, you'll probably end up spending as much if not more than you would if you bought it outright. Cars have very little maintenance these days and electric cars require even less. So that's a decreasing advantage for car subscriptions. And the $199 lease special will almost definitely be cheaper than a car subscription."
