Three Revolutions in Urban Transportation: How To Achieve the Full Potential of Vehicle Electrification, Automation, and Shared Mobility in Urban Transportation Systems Around the World by 2050
The world is on the cusp of three revolutions in transportation: vehicle electrification, automation, and widespread shared mobility (sharing of vehicle trips). Separately or together, these revolutions will fundamentally change urban transportation around the world over the next three decades. Together, the positive and negative aspects of each revolution will interact in many complex and difficult to predict ways. This report may be the first to attempt to quantify how these major changes could evolve and interact on a global and regional basis out to 2050. It considers possible end states, as well as transitional pathways and policies needed to get there.
