zipcar521.jpg Zipcar Inc., the Cambridge-based car sharing service, said it has expanded its partnership with the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority by adding six new on-site vehicles and one new location to various T stations in the Boston area.

Zipcar said it now has 31 vehicles at 14 different T stations, including the newly added Wollaston location, where there will be two Zipcars, the company said in a press release.

"The new cars increase Zipcar accessibility to outer suburb residents and make it easier for these individuals to save money by giving up their personal car and instead using public transit, car sharing, and biking or walking," Zipcar said. "The neighborhoods of Quincy, Jamaica Plain, and Dorchester will directly benefit from the additional vehicles."
