"Following significant interest from potential bidders for HyreCar's assets, I'm excited that the next chapter of HyreCar will be as a part of the Getaround family," said Eduardo Iniguez, CEO and CFO of HyreCar.

"This transaction unites two pioneering companies in the carsharing space. More than just sound economics for Getaround on our path to profitability, acquiring substantially all of the HyreCar assets will strengthen the business," said Sam Zaid, CEO and Founder of Getaround. "HyreCar's community of drivers will now benefit with greater earnings potential on the Getaround marketplace and the opportunity to take advantage of exciting improvements leveraging GETR technology and partnerships.
