Future travel trends

According to a recent report by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), the need to own a car and drive a car in developed countries is probably about to be saturated or ended, due to the day. more and more interested in operating costs or its impact on the environment.

Instead, many people tend to choose to travel by public transport, such as buses or subways. In Europe, for example, many households that own many vehicles cut one car down. This is very important for car manufacturers or car rental companies that need to grasp consumer tastes to adjust their production and business strategies effectively.

Currently, car, motorbike and bicycle sharing services (car rental by hour, day or month) are very popular in European countries, especially for young consumers, because it helps them to go more convenient in crowded cities, used many vehicles and has many different travel styles.

Smart phones play an important role in travel

The modern features of smartphones, tablets and diverse applications come together, travel also becomes more convenient. Accordingly, users can find a vehicle in the nearby car sharing service, sign up for a service, pay, change their destination, track and navigate. Smart phone applications also allow users to find a taxi in places with less traffic in the city or they can use handheld devices to find parking and streets reserved. for pedestrians.

Use electric vehicles to limit air pollution in cities

As the demand for private car ownership in Western countries declines, we will certainly see an increase in the demand for electric vehicles, including bicycles, motorcycles and cars. Circulation by electric vehicles plays a very important role in the goal of sustainable transport, contributing to reducing emissions of greenhouse gases CO2 (due to vehicles running by gasoline, oil discharge). Although the introduction of electric vehicles is quite slow because the infrastructure used for electricity charging network is still incomplete, this type of vehicle is expected to appear dense in the near future.

Among countries that have deployed electric car models, China is considered a good example. The country is focusing on a strategic plan to turn electric vehicle use as a sustainable and environmentally friendly transportation solution. Shenzhen City has so far deployed hundreds of electric taxis and electric buses along with a complete network of electric charging stations. Meanwhile, electric cars will be tested in Lon Don this year and are expected to help the British capital eliminate 20% of the emissions caused by 22,000 taxis. In Rome (Italy), passengers can travel with electric cars for 8 euros per hour and this model is now being replicated throughout Europe.
