Together, Free2move and DriveItAway are combining flexible vehicle access, subscription-to-ownership technology, connected-vehicle oversight, automated billing and dealer workflow integration into a scalable operating model for participating dealers. The model is designed to help franchised dealerships reach customers who may not fit traditional financing on day one, activate eligible inventory and create recurring revenue opportunities without relying solely on traditional vehicle financing. “At Free2move, we believe the future of mobility is not about replacing ownership, but expanding the ways customers can access it,” said Benjamin Maillard, Managing Director, Free2move North America. “Our partnership with DriveItAway gives dealers a practical, scalable way to serve customers who need reliable transportation today while creating a structured path toward ownership over time.” A Dealer-Native Mobility Operating Layer The Free2move and DriveItAway model is designed as a dealer-native operating layer that works within the existing automotive retail ecosystem. Rather than creating a standalone subscription pilot outside the dealership, the platform integrates into dealer workflows and helps convert eligible vehicles into flexible, revenue-generating assets. The solution combines: ● Vehicle sourcing and inventory activation ● Real-time telematics ● Automated billing ● Flexible-access and subscription administration ● Operational controls and payment oversight ● Pathway-to-ownership technology ● Dealer workflow
