SocialCar: Ridesharing Platform

Connects drivers with empty seats to people needing a ride, facilitates carpooling and reduces traffic and emissions, matches riders and drivers based on routes and preferences

What is SocialCar?

SocialCar is a ridesharing and carpooling platform launched in 2018. The app and website connect drivers with empty seats in their cars to individuals looking for transportation along similar routes.

How SocialCar works is drivers open the app and input their destination and route details, number of empty seats, and preferences such as non-smoking or females only. Riders log into the app, enter their start point, destination and route preferences and are matched with suitable drivers from there.

Some key benefits of SocialCar include reducing traffic congestion through carpooling, lowering transportation expenses for both riders and drivers, promoting sustainable transportation and reducing carbon emissions. The app provides ratings and reviews for safety and also conducts background checks on all drivers.

As of 2022, SocialCar operates in over 50 major cities across the United States and Canada. Key competitors in the ridesharing space include UberPOOL and Lyft Shared rides. But SocialCar differentiates itself by being focused specifically on carpooling rather than commercial ride-hailing.
