Ryde, a luxury-centric, peer-to-peer car rental marketplace, has acquired San Diego-based Vinty, a classic and vintage carsharing platform in the US.

Vinty offers a selection of more than 2,000 vintage cars in 14 destinations around the United States and has an established track record in the event and production industries. Combining the strengths of Ryde and Vinty will create an unparalleled offering for individuals and companies to instantly rent and drive any type of vehicle for private and business needs.

Vinty will continue to operate as a standalone entity. Over time, Vinty listings will be highlighted and integrated into the Ryde offering. The Vinty management team will join the Ryde family and continue to focus on bringing more high-quality listings and services to the Ryde platform and its customers.

The Vinty team provides high-level customer services and access to its support team, as well as dedicated account managers to help customers find the perfect vehicle. These services and support will be maintained as Vinty joins the Ryde platform. Examples of Vinty listings include this prize-winner 1941 Cadillac in Miami and this classic Ford Mustang in Los Angeles.
