Car sharing service could be coming to Toronto condos

General Motors is planning to open a sprawling new facility south of Riverside in Toronto's Film District. The so-called Toronto GM Mobility Campus, as the Globe and Mail reports, will include Cadillac's Canadian head office, a sales office for a select number of brands as one for electric cars and bikes.

Most interestingly, it'll also be home to Maven , GM's emerging car sharing service.

According to the Globe, GM is looking to work with developers to give condo owners on-demand access to a fleet of cars through their maintenance fees. Think of it as a Car2Go or Zipcar program just for condo dwellers.

GM will eventually replace Cinespace Studios at 30 Booth Avenue near Lake Shore and the DVP. As the Globe notes, the film studio will lease out space from GM for one year before moving to the Port Lands.
