Shared Mobility: FlexiGO an Extraordinary Car Rental Company

 

Share mobility means any mode of transportation that is shared by users on an as-needed basis. We generally define shared mobility generally as transportation services and resources that are shared among users simultaneously or sequentially. Public transportation, micro mobility (bike sharing, scooter sharing), automobile-based modes (carsharing, rides on demand, and micro transit), and commute-based modes (ridesharing) are all examples of this (carpooling and vanpooling).

Types of shared mobility:

Public Transit

The cornerstone for much of shared mobility is public transit, which consists of publicly owned fleets of buses, trains, ferries, facilities, and rights of way with fixed-route local and express service. For transit agencies, there is a lot of untapped potential in integrating with, or offering, shared modes to enhance access to transportation and cut costs.

Micro mobility

Micro mobility refers to a fleet of small, low-speed vehicles (mostly bikes and scooters) that can be either human- or electric-powered for personal transportation. Micro mobility is most common in cities and is used for short travels in places with high connectivity and a dense population of destinations.

Automobile-based Mode - Carsharing

Carsharing makes a network of cars available to pre-screened users for short-term usage, with borrowing times measured in hours rather than days, as is the case with regular car rental. The service is best for mid-to-long-distance excursions (5 to 20 miles), especially when carrying groceries or other stuff.

Commute-based Mode - Ridesharing

The most well-known kinds of shared mobility—the original "ridesharing"—are designed to efficiently transport groups of individuals with comparable origins and destinations. Carpooling and vanpooling are noncommercial shared ride arrangements that convey two to ten passengers and in which the driver is already making the trip.

Advantages of using shared mobility:

1.       Traveling efficiently.

2.       Fuel usage is reduced.

3.       Transportation costs are reduced.

4.       Creates new employment opportunities.

5.       Emissions of greenhouse gases are reduced.
