  Driving Change: Cities as the new frontier of mobility

  Panel Transportation/Mobility Technology/Innovation

  Cities are the "New Frontier" where new power train and autonomous technologies are being tested and where new business models like ride hailing have quickly taken hold. But cities are responding to concerns about emissions, congestion, and equity with new policies that could determine the early development of "new mobility." How significant will be the effects of bans on gasoline and diesel vehicles in European cities? Which cities will follow New York’s lead to curb ride hailing registrations?

  The Future of Ride-hailing & Mobility as a Service

  Panel Transportation/Mobility

  Due to the globally increasing popularity of ride-hailing, this session will explore the emerging Mobility-as-a-Service (MaaS) sector and its impact on customers and on emerging business models. The substantial growth of urban mobility services is expected to shift a significant number of vehicle miles travelled (VMT) away from the private car, potentially signaling an energy/propulsion shift toward electrification. Will this possible move to EVs help accelerate consumer adoption of this new technology? Will mobility services help the consumer see the vehicle as a generic device that can be optimized for passenger transport? What are the advantages for owners of these fleets?
