Park Now This is about connecting drivers with parking services, whether in garages or on the street. Companies like Parkmobile Group (owned by BMW) put parking payments into car infotainment systems and mobile apps.

Share NowA combination of car-sharing services, including Car2Go and DriveNow, to let other drivers use your car when it's not in use.

Charge NowThe companies want to connect electric vehicles to the Digital Charging Solutions network, which includes 143,000 charging stations around the world.

Free NowThis is BMW and Daimler's all-encompassing vision, which includes ride-hailing, taxis, private car rides, rentals, e-scooters -- basically anything that can get you where you want to go. Ride-hailing options include Daimler-owned mytaxi, Chauffeur Privé, Clever Taxi, and Beat -- all of which offer different ride options in different parts of the world, like mytaximatch, which pairs people in taxis going to a similar location. Mytaxi is changing its name to Free Now under the new partnership.

BMW and Daimler say their services under these five branches already include 60 million customers. Looks like Uber has some serious competition.
