Zipcar adding Yakima racks, carriers
Zipcar, the world’s leading car sharing network, and Yakima Products, Inc., the innovation leader in vehicle racks and cargo solutions, announced that the two companies are joining forces to bring Yakima bike, ski and surfboard carriers to Zipcars in North America.
This exclusive partnership enables Zipcar members to enjoy their favorite outdoor activities and adventures outside of the city without the cost and hassle of owning a car.
The Zipcar and Yakima partnership will bring Yakima’s new StreamLine base rack system, paired with FrontLoader bike mounts, FatCat 6 ski/snowboard mounts and SUPDawg stand up paddle/surf board mounts, to more than 150 Zipcars in 17 North American markets. Zipcar members will now be able to hit their favorite mountain bike trails, head to the snow, surf new waves, and more — without worrying about how to transport their gear.
The Yakima mounts can hold two bikes, six skis or four snowboards, or two surfboards or paddleboards, so it’s even easier to get out and take on the outdoors with friends.
