Autodelen in België "kent zijn begin" in 1978...:

Taxistop is een systeem van kostendelend liften, in Vlaanderen ingevoerd door de vzw Centrum voor Positieve Aanwending (opgericht in 1978). Tegenwoordig heet het systeem Eurostop (kostendelend liften doorheen Europa).
Het werkingsprincipe van Taxistop is om reizigers (potentiële lifters) en chauffeurs (mensen die lifters willen meenemen) samen te brengen. Daartoe houdt de organisatie lijsten bij van vraag en aanbod:
aanbod: chauffeurs geven aan op welke datum ze naar een bepaalde bestemming rijden, en hoeveel mensen ze kunnen meenemen;
vraag: lifters vragen om op een bepaalde datum of in een bepaalde periode naar een bepaalde bestemming te rijden.
Het systeem is kostendelend, dit vooral om het aantrekkelijker te maken voor de "chauffeurs". Lifters die van dit systeem gebruik willen maken verbinden zich ertoe 3 euro per persoon en per 100 km te betalen aan de chauffeur.
De vereniging heeft nadien nog andere diensten opgestart, die op analoge wijze vraag en aanbod trachten te verzoenen, zoals:
carpoolservice (brengt mensen samen die kostendelend met de auto naar het werk kunnen rijden)
huisruil (gezin op vakantie woont in het huis van een ander gezin en vice versa; hiervoor is de organisatie aangesloten bij Homelink International)
bed & breakfast (logies & ontbijt bij gezinnen)
woningoppas (mensen gaan gedurende de vakantie van een gezin in hun huis wonen)
autodelen (in samenwerking met de Duitse groep Cambio)

The first reference to carsharing in print identifies the Selbstfahrergenossenschaft carshare program in a housing cooperative that got underway in Zürich in 1948,[26][27] but there was no known formal development of the concept in the next few years. By the 1960s, as innovators, industrialists, cities, and public authorities studied the possibility of high-technology transportation—mainly computer-based small vehicle systems (almost all of them on separate guideways)—it was possible to spot some early precursors to present-day service ideas and control technologies.
The early 1970s saw the first whole-system carshare projects. The ProcoTip system in France lasted only about two years. A much more ambitious project called the Witkar was launched in Amsterdam by the founders of the 1965 white bicycles project. A sophisticated project based on small electric vehicles, electronic controls for reservations and return, and plans for a large number of stations covering the entire city, the project endured into the mid-1980s before finally being abandoned.
In July, 1977, the first official British experiment in carsharing started in Suffolk. An office in Ipswich provided a Share-a-Car service for "putting motorists who are interested in sharing car journeys in touch with each other."[28] In 1978, the Agricultural Research Council granted the University of Leeds £16,577 "for an investigation and simulation of car sharing".[29] The scheme was not intended for different drivers of a single car but for a driver offering seats in his car (Real-time ridesharing).
The 1980s and first half of the 1990s was a "coming of age" period for carsharing, with continued slow growth, mainly of smaller non-profit systems, many in Switzerland and Germany, but also on a smaller scale in Canada, the Netherlands, Sweden, and the United States.[30]
Carsharing in NA was founded in Quebec City in 1994 by Benoît Robert, with a company called Communauto that is still a leader in car sharing globally. Cycling advocate and environmentalist Claire Morissette (1950–2007) played a major role in its evolution starting in 1995, when Communauto established itself in Montreal as a private company. The company goal is to provide a convenient and economical alternative to owning a car.
Zipcar, Flexcar (bought by Zipcar in 2007), and City Car Club were all started in 2000. Several car rental companies launched their own car sharing services beginning in 2008, including Avis On Location by Avis, Hertz on Demand (formerly known as Connect by Hertz[31]), operating in the U.S. and Europe; Uhaul Car Share owned by U-Haul, and WeCar by Enterprise Rent-A-Car.[32] By 2010, when various peer-to-peer carsharing systems were introduced. As of September 2012[33] Zipcar accounted for 80% of the U.S car sharing market[32][34] and half of all car-sharers worldwide[35] with 730,000 members sharing 11,000 vehicles.
Carsharing has also spread to the developing world (Brazil, China, India, Mexico, and Turkey) because population density is often a critical determinant of success for carsharing, and developing nations often have dense urban populations.[36]
Many building developers are now incorporating share-cars into their developments as an added value to tenants, and municipal government bodies around the world are starting to stipulate the implementation of a carsharing service in new buildings, as a sustainability initiative. These trends have created a demand for a new model of carsharing - residential, private-access share-cars that are typically underwritten by the Homeowner association.
