VikingCars was founded in early 2014 with headquarters in Reykjavík, Iceland. It was founded by two young Icelandic entrepreneurs who strongly believe in the future of peer to peer services, one of them being car sharing. Apart from housing, a car is usually the most expensive investments families make. A car is costly to own and maintain and often it´s use is limited. That is why they have created a platform where people can share their cars in a safe way. This will help car owners to make some income to make it less costly to own a vehicle and it will help renters to rent a more personalized car at more affordable prices. Many families in Iceland have two cars so sharing is a great opportunity while the car is not in use, especially during the summer. This is great as during the summer travellers are looking for special vehicles to travel in. By connecting those two groups together they can reduce the numbers of cars on the road and increase the use per car. By using the VikingCars platform they will therefore reduce traffic congestion, parking scarcity, material waste and pollution. When travelling it is important to do something different and unique that you will remember. Icelanders have a unique car culture where Icelanders often modify their vehicles to better suit the Icelandic mountain environment. Some do drastic changes such as extra fuel tanks and special off-road equipment, while others only make minor changes like slightly larger tires. The VikingCars marketplace has unlimited opportunities for Icelanders to share their unique vehicles with travellers which want to try something different.
