Revolutionising sustainable mobility in Luxembourg 

CARLOH is Luxembourg’s pioneering car-sharing service, designed to reduce reliance on private car ownership and offer an eco-friendly alternative for urban mobility. The service aims to make sustainable transportation accessible while maintaining the convenience of having a car when needed. With a fleet of low-emission and electric vehicles, CARLOH is transforming how citizens approach urban transport. 

Simple, flexible, and accessible 
The CARLOH service is easy to use: users subscribe online, book cars through the app or website, and drive away using a card access system. The fleet includes city cars, electric vehicles, and minivans, providing options for all needs. Available 24/7, CARLOH offers a flexible and cost-effective way to access cars without the hassle of ownership. 

Reaching more people every year 
Since its launch in 2015, CARLOH has seen significant growth. From its humble beginnings with five stations and ten cars, the service now boasts an expanding fleet and increasing subscriber numbers. By 2019, CARLOH had over 670 subscribers and continues to attract more users, particularly in urban areas and among expatriates, contributing to the shift towards shared mobility. 

Environmental and economic benefits 
CARLOH is making a real difference to both the environment and citizens’ wallets. Each car in the fleet replaces 8 to 12 private vehicles, reducing traffic congestion and lowering emissions. Additionally, it offers users a cost-effective alternative to car ownership, saving money on insurance, maintenance, and parking while promoting a more sustainable way of getting around.
