In the [sharing economy](/source/Sharing_economy), **transfer cars**, **relocation cars**, or **driveaways** are [rental cars](/source/Car_rental) that need to be transferred back to their original branch after a one-way rental.[1][2] Rental car companies have traditionally used truck and train transporters to re-position their fleet until this model was disrupted by websites which let travelers book those transfer cars for free or for a very small amount of money.[3]
