KPI Name Shared Vehicles
KPI No. EC: I: T: 7A Type: Advanced Type: Sustainable

Definition / Number of shared vehicles per 100,000 inhabitants
Description

Rationale / Shared vehicles are defined as vehicles available for short term rentals (often by the
Interpretation / hour) through a commercial business, public agency or with a cooperative.
Benchmarking Shared vehicles provide an alternative form of transportation for those inhabitants
who do not need to have a personal vehicle (due to the limited number of travels
they engage in). This may reduce the number of personal vehicles within a city and,
may also mean that a city does not have to build as many parking facilities or that
road space can be better utilized for travel rather than parking.
An improving trend and higher values are considered positive.
Methodology Calculate as:
Numerator: Number of shared vehicles.
Denominator: One 100,000th of the city’s population.
Unit Number / 100,000 inhabitants
