Amsterdam, 5 November 2026 – MyWheels is adding 450 new electric shared cars to its fleet: 300 Renault 4s and 150 Ford Pumas. As a result, 80% of the MyWheels fleet now consists of fully electric vehicles, making it the largest electric car-sharing fleet in the Netherlands.
The new electric shared cars will be deployed across various Dutch cities before the end of the year, including Amsterdam, Utrecht, Eindhoven, Rotterdam and The Hague. With 300 additional Renault 4s, MyWheels is further expanding its existing fleet of this model while preparing to scale up its Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) fleet. The introduction of 150 electric Ford Pumas also adds a new model to the MyWheels fleet.
“The fact that more than 80% of our shared cars are now electric is an important milestone for MyWheels,” says Laurens van de Vijver, CEO of MyWheels. “Over the past few years, we have deliberately invested in electrifying our fleet. This requires substantial investment, but it reflects our belief that electric shared cars have an important role to play in the sustainable and smart mobility and energy systems of the future.”
With the addition of 450 electric shared cars, MyWheels' nationwide fleet now exceeds 3,000 vehicles. The fleet includes a variety of electric models to suit different mobility needs, from a premium Tesla and a spacious Hyundai Kona or Kia e-Niro to a compact Renault 5. For transporting larger items, users can also choose the electric Kia PV5 van. By expanding its fleet in locations where demand is high, MyWheels aims to optimise vehicle utilisation and make more efficient use of its available cars.
Electric shared cars also play a role in the energy transition. Together with We Drive Solar and Renault Group, MyWheels is already operating 350 vehicles in Utrecht and Eindhoven that can feed electricity back into the power grid using Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) technology. These ‘mobile neighbourhood batteries’ can help manage peaks in electricity demand and reduce pressure on the power grid.
