This is one of the consequences of the increase in the price of gasoline in France, which has reached more than 2 euros per liter in certain departments: the use of carpooling services has been skyrocketing in recent days.

If the applications suffered during the health crisis linked to Covid-19, they are now coming back in force, even breaking certain records, reports RMC on Wednesday.

Thus, the BlaBlaCar Daily platform, which makes it possible to share home-work journeys, gained 500,000 new subscribers in six months, an increase of 25% in the total number of users.

Today they are 2.5 million users.

Same observation at Bobicoop.fr, number two in the sector.

The increase is 22% at the national level, with + 30% users in Hauts-de-France and + 38% in the west of the country.

An increase in recent days

And these increases would be even more marked in recent days.

This is particularly the case at Mobicoop.fr, with a number of subscribers which has increased significantly in recent weeks.

In fifteen days, there were as many ads published on this site as in a full month, indicate our colleagues.

Same observation at BlaBlaCar Daily, where twice as many new members were registered on Tuesday March 8 compared to a usual Tuesday.

In total, the platform has seen the number of carpooling trips increase by 45% since the start of 2022.
