The problem with subscription services is enshittification. They get users habitually using them and once the alternatives are dead they crank the levers to extract value.
I always thought be interesting for an app to organize an neighborhood to share its cars with themselves. This gets away from a lot of problems with rentals - the car always lives in the same place, you can get the same set of familiar cars, and you'd have more of a sense of ownership and personal liability. The problem is that people use their cars as storage plus non-linear spikey demand and everyone wanting to use cars at the same time.
