Volt is İstanbul’s smartest and most affordable transportation alternative. It connects passengers with verified car owners already in traffic and going in the same direction. Volt allows passengers to get to their destination in the comfort of a car for only the cost of the ride and car owners to reduce their driving expenses by sharing their ride. In addition to taxi, metro, IETT bus, and metrobus, Istanbul citizens now have a new transportation alternative, ridesharing with Volt.

By matching car owners and passengers in real-time, Volt is working to fill the empty seats in traffic. It aims to bring a solution to traffic in Istanbul with ridesharing.
