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 own a personal vehicle (due to the limited number of trips they
take). 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.

Numerator: Number of shared vehicles.
Denominator: One 100 000th of the city’s population.
