Alternative mobility is coming: if you can’t stop it, understand it

Next year is poised to see considerable developments in alternative forms of mobility, driven by a more collaborative approach to consumption around the world. "There is definitely interest in all sorts of mobility services - car sharing, ride sharing - in young people and old people," observed Nick Gill Chairman of Global Automotive Sector at Capgemini. "The difference is that young people see it more as an option to make them more flexible, so that they can mix and match what they want and not be tied down. The older people see it more as a financial expedient, reducing the total cost of ownership. There are different reasons and you can see today that there are different groups of people wanting to use mobility services for different reasons."
