Globally, the BlaBlaCar Group also includes Obilet, the leading online bus ticketing platform in Turkey.

In 2025, the BlaBlaCar community connected 2.7 million meeting points worldwide and enabled 138 million connections between travelers. Drivers saved 568 million euros by carpooling, and all of the BlaBlaCar Group’s mobility services contributed to avoiding 4 million tonnes of CO2 emissions.
