Agreement somewhat similar to Uber's arrangements with GM and Hertz.

Uber has teamed up with Getaround to provide its driver partners with cars for ride-sharing, the company said in a blog last week. The two partners started a pilot project in San Francisco, California (United States) where Uber drivers can use Getaround app to rent cars on-demand from pickup spots across the city. The cost of rental is covered for up to 14 hours. After that drivers will be charged USD5 per hour for use of the vehicle, which includes costs for gas, insurance and unlimited miles.
