As 2025 reaches a close, we’re taking a moment to look back on another big year at DRIVESHARE. It’s been a year of growth, new ideas and, most importantly, plenty of memorable drives shared between owners and renters around the world.
From new features on the platform to the launch of entirely new ways to experience classic and iconic cars, 2025 has been about building more value, more choice and more reasons to get behind the wheel.
A growing global community
Our community continues to expand, with more classic cars listed and more bookings taking place across the US, as well as the UK and beyond with BookAclassic.
We're seeing more people both listing and renting memorable vehicles, not just in our busiest regions but in new locations too, as more people discover the joy of driving something truly special. At the heart of it all is the same thing it’s always been: owners who love their cars and renters who want an experience they’ll remember.
Improving the platform
Throughout the year, we’ve continued to invest in the platform itself. From behind-the-scenes improvements to smoother booking and messaging tools, everything has been focused on making DRIVESHARE easier, safer and more enjoyable to use. These updates help protect the community, and make sure every drive goes as smoothly as possible.
Introducing DRIVESHARE Experiences
One of our biggest milestones this year has been the launch of DRIVESHARE Experiences. This new part of the platform goes beyond car rental, giving guests the chance to book curated drives, tours and adventures hosted by owners who know their cars and their local roads best. We'll be sharing more updates on this in the next few days.
Reaching new audiences
This year also saw the continued growth of DRIVESHARE Events, our directory connecting car lovers with rallies, shows, and gatherings across the country. It’s becoming a useful way to discover what’s happening near you.
Alongside this, we launched DRIVESHARE Professional, making it easier for event planners, production companies and luxury concierges to source multiple classic cars for film shoots and special projects. It’s opening up new ways to use classic cars.
Telling classic car stories
Our blog has continued to grow, sharing practical tips, owner stories and inspiration from across the community. Whether it’s advice on caring for a classic, ideas for your next route or a closer look at the cars themselves, it’s been great to see so many of you reading, sharing and getting involved.
We’ve also started to expand our influencer marketing, working with creators who genuinely love classic cars and driving experiences, helping introduce DRIVESHARE to even more like-minded people.
Looking ahead to 2026
As we head into the new year, we’re excited about what’s next. More experiences, more cars, more events and more ways to enjoy driving something special, whether it’s for an afternoon or a once-in-a-lifetime trip.
Thank you for being part of DRIVESHARE, whether you’ve rented a car, shared your own, or simply followed along. From Kent, our CEO, and the whole DRIVESHARE team, we wish you a very happy holiday season and a brilliant year of driving ahead.
