Keeping the key in the car doesn't void insurance. Every ZipCar already has a key in the ignition, and yet they don't get rampantly stolen (even in SoMa).
Fuel is under the responsibility of the renter - we've actually found that most renters bring the fuel back higher than where they took it out at. If renters repeatedly forget to refuel the vehicle, not only do they get bad ratings, but we actively remove them from the system.
Most of our owners make at least $300/month renting out their car a few hours a week, after commission. Popular cars like www.getaround.com/mini make well more.
As for how many people want to - we've had more than 2,000 cars sign up so far.
From the renter's side - we offer more choice and variety, as well as car's that are on average quite a bit cheaper. We can also penetrate markets that ZipCar cannot, and offer cars that are closer in proximity.
