Zipcar, which is a subsidiary of Avis, has seen a rise in competition lately, both from other car-sharing services like Car2Go (owned by Daimler) and traditional car manufacturers like GM’s Maven. Zipcar has joined forces with universities to introduce a bike - sharing programme , which will roll out on ten UK university campuses in January , with plans to expand to 15 campuses by 2017 . The programme , called Link , will offer members discounts on Zipcar ’s main car - sharing service and hopes to introduce young people to cycling , while they are still at university .
