More efficient use of your fleet
V-tron has developed the Carsharing business line software specifically for the business market to enable fleets to be deployed as efficiently as possible in a simple manner. After all, by making your vehicles available to all your employees, they have easy and quick access to temporary transport. This often allows you to reduce the size of your fleet, which saves on investments and fixed costs.
Easy booking
An employee reserves a vehicle via Carsharing, which can be picked up at the agreed time and place. The vehicle can be opened with the special reservation card (chip card) or a smartphone. After use, the vehicle is returned and logged out with the reservation card or smartphone.
Simple administration
V-tron’s Carsharing reservation and management system provides clear insight into vehicle usage. Who, when, where and how. The software provides clear answers to all these questions. Issues such as driving behaviour, consumption, fuel level and vehicle location can also be monitored in real time with the online software.

The functions of Carsharing:
Vehicle management system
With an RFID reader mounted on the windscreen, the car can be locked or unlocked when the customer holds an active reservation card in front of the reader.
All journey information, such as mileage, is sent in real time to the car sharing online management system.
Smartphone
In addition to the RFID reader, there is also the option of opening the car with a smartphone.
This works via a QR code on the vehicle’s windscreen. Due to the user density of smartphones, this option is very suitable for commercial vehicles and vehicles with a limited service life, in view of the installation and removal costs.
Non-communication functionality
Even in areas without mobile phone coverage, V-tron’s car sharing system can continue to identify customers.
This can be particularly important for companies that park their vehicles in underground car parks or in remote areas. Naturally, this feature simplifies usage.
Selfservice
Through the integrated web application, car sharing can be used for both pre-ordered reservations and spontaneous reservations.
Master keycard
In Carsharing, one or more Master Key Cards can be used for operational staff, for example to retrieve vehicles.
Realtime tracking
In the event of a security issue, car sharing can provide real-time tracking and report the vehicle’s up-to-date status.
Driver behaviour
Car sharing can provide a large number of real-time warnings about driving behaviour.
.
These are configurable functions and include:
- (Excessive) speed
- Warning (too) long idling
- Sudden acceleration/deceleration
- Sudden change of direction (sharp/dangerous turn)
Remote assignments
Carsharing can receive automatic or manual commands. Possible commands and notifications:
- Low battery warning
- Fuel level
- Door status (open/closed),
- lock/unlock door
- Activate/deactivate immobiliser
- Car horn
Security alerts
Carsharing can be easily programmed to provide various security alerts, such as:
- Main switch disconnected from unit
- Contact status
- Immobilisation status
- Tow detection
- Door status open/closed, locked/unlocked
Fuel level measurement
The fuel status of the vehicle can be measured using the Fuel Sensor. This option is available for any fuel cards, e.g. MTC, TC or Shell.
Hidden installation
Due to the small size of the built-in unit, it can be installed deep inside the vehicle’s interior. This prevents detection and sabotage.
Back-up battery
The built-in unit has an optional backup battery, which saves the status and life tracking reports even when the device is switched off. This is particularly useful in the event of theft.
Geofencing
In the event that the vehicle leaves a defined zone, an alarm is activated immediately.
Accident sensor
Impact Sensor, immediate alerts via text message or email of any impact greater than 8G (frontal) or 3G (side).
Driver verification
Carsharing is aware of its provisional status and may issue warnings in the event of unauthorised use.
Login memory
When mobile coverage is unreliable or absent, the system memory can store up to 2,256 messages (30 days of usage). This data will be transmitted immediately when coverage resumes. Logged events are stored indefinitely, even in the event of failure of both the primary and backup power sources.
