Fred’s appointment represents an important investment in that belief.”<\/p>\n Autonomy provides a month-to-month, subscription-based solution to personal mobility that is like a flexible lease but without the long-term commitment and can be secured with a credit card. Autonomy is driven by a brand promise to make accessing mobility as easy as possible. Customers can choose a vehicle through the Autonomy app, pay by credit card, and access it through a month-to-month arrangement. The model is designed to offer the benefits of having a car with greater flexibility and a simpler digital experience.<\/p>\n “Autonomy is an amazing platform with a strong foundation and a compelling solution for customers who want access to a vehicle without being locked into the traditional ownership process,” said Weick. “We are making an assertive investment in Autonomy’s future. With a wonderful team and incredible partners our priority is to inspire our customers to experience what it truly means to enjoy the freedom of worry free mobility. We have listened to our customers and will grow our product offerings to provide our users with greater choice and more freedom to drive what they want, when they want, and how they want! As we welcome more fans into the Autonomy family, our vision of adding more value to our customers, our team, our partners and our shareholders will be fulfilled!”<\/p>\n With Weick’s appointment, Autonomy brings together a leadership team, each with decades of experience spanning vehicle subscriptions, fleet management, automotive finance and leasing, OEM operations and dealer relationships. Weick joins Bauer and Leopold Visser<\/a>, President and COO of Autonomy, in applying that experience to the continued development and expansion of Autonomy’s flexible vehicle access platform.<\/p>\n About Autonomy The Autonomy media kit can be found HERE<\/a>.
