I will really miss their automatic transmission vans with rear cameras… I wonder if their competitors are facing same issues?

  2. Nobody is making money in this sector, this is just an excuse so there are not fundamental concerns about the business model.

  3. It’s very unfortunate that such a great service has to shut down because of the high rate of vandalism and theft.

  6. Read between the lines: they have never turned a profit and they’re blaming others. While I’m sure that theft, vandalism and misuse are issues (the tragedy of the commons), Miles themselves are the ones that failed to find solutions. A stricter registration process, lobbying municipalities for safer or cleaner parking spaces, etc. Miles’ earnings: https://www.companyweb.be/nl/0786569931/miles-mobility-belgium#:~:text=Wat%20is%20de%20jaarlijkse%20omzet,%2D1.587.912%2C50.

  9. Heb ze overlaatst alle Miles deelvoertuigen zien opladen aan de Roderveldlaan in Berchem. Poolse opleggers

  11. Ik zag er af en toe een paar rijden. Tjah, car sharing in Brussel en Antwerpen…

  12. This is what happens when ‘young people’ vandalize and treat it like trash. I once saw a couple of ‘young people’ try to ride it down the stairs. It got stuck in the middle 🤦🏿‍♀️

  13. Just don’t operate in Brussels and you’d get rid of >90% of the problem

  14. When Half of your car are wrecked in 1 month, why stay in our city ?
    Zipcar, DriveNow, I think Miles has the record of time in Brussels for a foreign car sharing company

  15. A company I never heard of leaving the country? K bye then lol

  19. Just wondering: why vandalize shared cars? There’s nothing in there to steal, they’re not “hurting” anyone?

  20. Honestly, every time I saw a Miles vehicle, there was some asshole driving reckless in it. The cars hardly have any branding on them, so it looks like you own the car + Miles seems to have chosen the more ‘sporty’ models. Seems like that attracts a certain clientelle.

  21. Vandalism = people kept changing the E in the company name to an F … just for the laughs! 🙂

  23. Unfortunate. Only car sharing company where all the cars were automatic.

  24. All these companies are blitzscaling: selling their services at loss until all the competition is dead. This is one of the reasons we had a some point 7 different shared electric scooters brands in Brussels.

    In the end there will be only one company left and they will triple their prices once they won. More likely d’Ieteren with their Poppy. They’re the ones who whispered the company cars laws back then.
