The driving force behind Elmo is technological innovation. We develop innovative solutions to solve people’s transportation needs using as little resource as possible. Today our focus is on bringing remotely controlled cars to the streets. We have reached many important milestones: 2013 Elmo creates a keyless and contactless short term car rental. 2018 The idea to develop remotely controlled cars is born. 2021 We drove our test car remotely for the first time! 2022 First remote controlled car driving on city streets. Why remote-operated vehicle? The technology enables us to deliver short term rental cars to our clients doorstep contactlessly and with incredible efficiency. The result is the ability to service a large client base with a small fleet of cars and drivers. This greatly optimizes personell costs, saves fuel and reduces CO2 emissions. In the summer of 2022 we will drive our car to the client remotely. Today we have over 16 000 clients and 140 environmentally friendly cars Tehnoloogiline innovatsioon on Elmo mootoriks. Arendame uuenduslikke lahendusi, et aina vähesema ressursikuluga rohkem inimesi liikumises hoida. Täna on meie põhifookus kaugjuhitavad autod tänavatele tuua. Oleme esimestena jõudnud mitmete oluliste tähisteni: 2013 Elmo loob võtmevaba elektriauto rentimislahenduse. 2018 Sünnib idee luua kaugjuhitava auto lahendus. 2021 Tegime esimese kaugjuhitava sõidu. 2022 Jõuavad esimesed kaugjuhitavad rendiautod linnatänavatele. Miks kaugjuhtimine? Tehnoloogia võimaldab meil seniolematu efektiivsusega rendiautosid tellimuse peale kontaktivabalt otse inimesteni toimetada. Tulemuseks on võimekus väikese autopargiga suurt kliendibaasi kiirelt teenindada, tööjõudu optimeerida, suurel hulgal kütust kokku hoida ja päriselt keskkonnasõbralikku tehnoloogiat kasutada. 2022. aasta suvel sõidame kaugjuhitava autoga esimese kliendini – täna on meil juba 16 000 klienti ning 140 sõidukiline autopark.
