Mobility
The mobility revolution is not only about switching to electric vehicles but also replacing private car ownership with shared mobility. According to research by the Transport Technology Forum, 50% of all new cars in the UK will be smart vehicles, connected to the internet. Soon, vehicle-access platforms driven by big data algorithms will be the quickest and cheapest way to move around the city. Manchester, following in the footsteps of Copenhagen, estimates that each electric car-sharing vehicle can replace 11 vehicles on the road. Less congestion, less pollution, less cost, less inconvenience and less carbon. What’s not to like?
