Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts war das Auto ein Luxus, der der Elite vorbehalten war, aber es interessierte alle und zog die Massen an: 1898 fand in Paris die erste Autoschau statt. Die Autovermietung wird einige Jahre später jenseits des Atlantiks das Licht der Welt erblicken, aber ihre Entwicklung wird durch den Ersten und dann durch den Zweiten Weltkrieg gestoppt. In der Nachkriegszeit greift ein Pariser Unternehmer die Idee wieder auf: \"Wenn man es sich nicht leisten kann, ein Auto zu kaufen, warum mietet man es nicht, wenn man es braucht?\". Sein Name war Raoul-Louis Mattei und 1949 gründete er \"L'Abonnement Automobile\": ein Unternehmen, aus dem später die Compagnie Internationale Europcars, dann Europcar, wurde. Der Hauptsitz in der Rue du Champ de Mars 11 umfasste auch eine Autovermietung. Der Erfolg des Unternehmens folgte schnell, da die Autovermietung einem echten Bedarf entsprach. 1951 war l'Abonnement Automobile das erste Unternehmen für Autovermietung ohne Fahrer und seine Flotte zählte 750 4 CV. Heute verfügt die Europcar Mobility Group durchschnittlich über 200.000 Fahrzeuge und bedient 5 Millionen Kunden in mehr als 140 Ländern. Aber die Vision, auf der unsere Gruppe gegründet wurde, ist dieselbe geblieben, während sie relevanter und vielversprechender denn je ist, da wir in das Zeitalter der Sharing Economy eintreten!
