Zimbl revolutionises urban mobility in Oxfordshire with our sustainable, electric car rental service. Offering convenient hourly and daily hire options, we provide an eco-friendly solution for your transportation needs.
Download and register on the app today. All you need is your driving licence and a selfie.
Once you’ve registered and gone through our Drivers Licence verification process (this can take up to 24 hours) you can book a Zimbl at anytime. You use the app to book your Zimbl’s starting address and finishing address by the hour, day or even longer.
Download the app now, then you are ready to book and drive at any time.
If you live in or around Banbury, we will deliver the car to you for free or you can collect your car or van from any Zimbl Hub at your convenience. We do not deliver to Oxford residents YET, unless you book a vehicle for more than ten hours.
We also have several collection hubs with major local employers, local authorities, residential developments, housing associations and keyworker sites; but these are only available to participants of those schemes. If you think your employer or local authority would welcome the benefits of a Zimbl Hub in your location, please contact vip@zimbl.co.uk and we will see if we can help improve your mobility experience and save you money.
No, Zimbl does not require a deposit to rent a car. When you verify your Drivers Licence on your Zimbl app, you register a payment card and when you book a Zimbl, a single pending charge is put on your card for the hours you have booked for. At the end of your booking, a single transaction is made against your chosen payment method.
Once you’ve booked a car through the app, the app will provide instructions on how to unlock the car using your smartphone.
If you return the car fully charged, you will not be charged anything extra. However, if the car is not returned fully charged, there will be a charge of 30p per kilowatt-hour (kWh) consumed during your rental period. The first 5 kWh are free with each booking.
