The main consumers of the carsharing service were described: active users who use car sharing almost constantly, this type of transport is preferential for them, forced active users of car sharing who were forced to use the car sharing service, due to the fact that their own car was under repair due to an accident and passive car sharing users who use this service spontaneously and in rare cases, for example, for entertainment, in order to make purchases in the store, as well as in cases where they do not have access to their own car.
