BACKGROUND

Maven is car sharing, refined. A fully connected fleet of General Motors vehicles featuring the newest cars with the latest technology allows users to personalize the entire experience. Customers bring their digital lives into the vehicles through Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, including contacts, favorites and maps.

Maven advisor support is available through OnStar for questions, roadside assistance and emergency response, providing peace of mind for the journey. SiriusXM Satellite Radio and 4G LTE wireless connectivity allow for a more engaged experience.

Pricing is simple and transparent, and includes insurance and fuel. A gas card is provided, and users are asked to return the vehicle with at least one-quarter tank of fuel to avoid an additional charge.
