Electric car rentals should start in Chattanooga in about two to three weeks.
Gustave Occhiuzzo, CEO of GreenCommute, told members of the CARTA board that 20 electric vehicles have been secured.
Charging stations will be at CARTA's north and south parking garages as well as the one on Frazier Avenue. There will be two by Coolidge Park at the Chattanooga Theatre Centre, two on Station Street by the Chattanooga Choo Choo and one at the Incline Railway in St. Elmo.
Charging stations are also to be located at UTC and Southern Adventist University.
The rental rate will be $9 per hour.
Registrations for the program have begun.
