WhizzGo was a United Kingdom car rental company that provided a pay-by-the-hour car rental service in cities across the UK.

Pay-by-the-hour cars were provided for an hourly price which included insurance, tax, fuel, maintenance and the Congestion Charge for London cars. In 2007, WhizzGo won Best Leasing/rental company of the year,[1] and Private Sector Fleet of the year,[2] in the GreenFleet awards.

On 28 August 2009, WhizzGo was acquired by City Car Club creating the UK's largest network of hourly rental cars.[3] The WhizzGo name was dropped soon after.
