A2B is Evolving
Smarter Zones. Same Great Hourly Rate.
A2B has grown quickly - and so have the costs of running it.
Some locations cost significantly more to maintain than others. Premium hubs require constant vehicle availability. Remote zones often require vehicles to be relocated back into service. Energy and parts costs continue to rise.
Rather than increase the hourly rate for everyone, we’ve taken a different approach.
We’ve evolved A2B into a simple zone model - keeping the flat hourly rate the same while introducing small location-based adjustments.
How It Works
⚡ Standard Zones
Most A2B stations remain Standard.
- £9.95 per hour
- No pick up or drop off charge
- Simple, affordable travel
This remains the backbone of A2B.
✨ Premium Zones
High-demand or high-cost locations.
- £9.95 per hour
- £1.49 pick up charge (if applicable)
- £1.49 drop off charge (if applicable)
Premium zones require more servicing and higher operating costs to maintain availability - particularly key arrival hubs.
🌱 Saver Zones
Lower-demand locations that help rebalance the fleet.
- £9.95 per hour
- Save up to £2 on your rental when collecting
These zones help move vehicles back into service and reward flexible travel.
What Stays the Same
✔ The flat hourly rate remains £9.95
✔ No seasonal pricing
✔ Clear pricing before you book
✔ Full zone list available on our website and via the app under each zone description
When selecting a location in the app, you’ll see whether it’s:
- Premium Pick Up / Drop Off
- Standard
- Saver
Daily Rate Update
To reflect increased energy, maintenance and operating costs, the A2B daily rate will adjust slightly to:
£33.95 per day
This ensures we can continue maintaining and expanding the fleet sustainably.
Why We’ve Evolved
A2B now supports thousands of trips, with some zones accounting for a significant proportion of usage.
Rather than increase prices across the board, we’ve introduced small location-based adjustments that:
- Keep everyday town travel affordable
- Recover higher costs at premium locations
- Encourage natural fleet balancing
- Reward flexible journeys
- Protect long-term sustainability
This is about fairness.
Charge a little more where it costs more.
Offer savings where it helps the network.
Keep the core rate low for everyone.
A2B. Still simple. Now smarter.
