GM's Maven car-sharing service coming to Kitchener

[MacBerry]

car2go would probably be better, yes. One doesn't preclude the other, and Maven opening up shop here might even make car2go consider KW in a future expansion. I don't see how Maven coming here can be anything but a good thing, and it's a good sign that their first experiment in the Canadian market is here.

Maven is offering normal cars today (Volt, Cruze, Malibu, Regal, ATS etc), but GM's intent is to get to driverless in the future, same as the other manufacturers.  That won't be for quite some time, though.

Here is an earlier GM Maven announcement. Remember this is really about branding and the future of automobile manufacturing. 

GM can't sit back and wait for the right time. They have to get into the sharing market now.

Here is the headline and the link I promised ...
