Le auto di Elettra sono disponibili in tutta la città e le puoi noleggiare via App in qualsiasi momento. Per qualche minuto, un’ora o per più giorni, hai sempre un’auto a tua disposizione per spostarti agilmente in città e puoi: • Usare le corsie dei bus • Entrare liberamente in ZTL e ZSL • Parcheggiare gratis in Aree Blu e Isole Azzurre Scarica la App, è gratuita!

Trovi le chiavi all'interno del veicolo. - Adesso sei pronto a partire. LA NOSTRA FLOTTA Con Elettra viaggi 100% elettrico: la nostra flotta va verso le emissioni zero con le Volkswagen E-Up!, iD3 e iD4. Puoi scegliere la classe di auto migliore, a seconda delle tue necessità, in modalità Station Based o Free Floating. Free Floating Compatta, accogliente, agile e scattante, perfetta per la città, ma con la tranquillità di fare tanta strada, grazie alla sua autonomia che oggi raggiunge i 260km. Può essere guidata anche dai neopatentati e trova spazio per essere parcheggiata ovunque, grazie ai suoi sensori e alla telecamera di serie, tutto senza rinunciare a un bagagliaio capiente e a 4 posti per i passeggeri. Station Based La formula Station Based di Elettra ti mette a disposizione auto diverse, per darti il supporto che ti serve in ogni possibile scenario. La E-Up! è la soluzione che coniuga agilità e comfort: 4 posti, un bagagliaio spazioso e un’autonomia che ti permette di andare lontano. Brillante e razionale per i tuoi spostamenti rapidi. La iD.3 è perfetta per chi deve andare fuori città, con una batteria ad alta capacità e un’ottima potenza. Compatta ma con un grande spazio interno, la ID.3 accoglie un bagagliaio super capiente e 5 posti. La iD.4 è l’auto più grande e potente della flotta, per i tuoi viaggi in famiglia. Massimo comfort, interno abitabile, totale affidabilità e un’autonomia fino a 500km. Un concentrato di tecnologia, semplice e su misura. IGIENIZZAZIONE Tutte le nostre auto rispettano le normative e gli standard più severi in materia di sicurezza anticovid: le vetture Elettra hanno un sistema di igienizzazione che consente di purificare e sanificare l'aria dell’abitacolo utilizzando l'ossidazione fotocatalitica AFLPCO® e si attiva a seguito di ogni utilizzo delle vetture garantendo ai clienti di viaggiare in massima sicurezza. Oltre alla pulizia e sanificazione delle macchine, abbiamo scelto di installare pellicole antibatteriche e antivirali su tutti gli schermi touchscreen. La tecnologia di questo film adesivo, certificata secondo le norme ISO 21702 e ISO 22196, è stata progettata per ridurre la trasmissione dei virus e ostacolare la proliferazione dei batteri più frequenti, mantenendo le sue proprietà inalterate, anche dopo uso e lavaggi frequenti. ABOUT US Elettra è un brand di Genova Car Sharing, azienda nata nel 2004 nell'ambito di ICS (Iniziativa Car Sharing) struttura di coordinamento delle realtà locali del Car Sharing, promossa e sostenuta dal Ministero dell'Ambiente e del Territorio. Da gennaio 2021 Genova Car Sharing è controllato al 100% da Duferco Energia SpA, società energetica del Gruppo Duferco.
