{{Short description|Electric cars, alternatives to cars, rentals}} '''Smart mobility''' refers to many modes of transport.<ref>[https://www.geotab.com/blog/what-is-smart-mobility/ What is smart mobility ?]</ref><ref>[https://www.arcadis.com/en/united-states/our-perspectives/smart-mobility/ Smart mobility]</ref><ref>[https://www.globalfleet.com/en/smart-mobility/global/article/what-smart-mobility?

Some smart mobility services include:<ref>[https://ec.europa.eu/transparency/regexpert/index.cfm?do=groupDetail.groupDetailDoc&id=34596 Smart mobility and services]</ref> * Public transport (with real-time timetabling and route optimization, seamless travel and digital ticketing) * Carsharing * Mobility as a service (MaaS) * Mobility on demand (MOD)<ref>[https://www.transit.dot.gov/research-innovation/mobility-demand-mod-sandbox-program Mobility on Demand term]</ref> * Autonomous transport systems * Smart mobility services in freight and logistics * Drones and low-altitude aerial mobility
==Overview== === Mobility as a service === Mobility as a service enables multimodal mobility by providing user-centric information and travel services (navigation, location, booking, payment, ...) hence allowing mobility as a seamless service across all transport modes. Mobility on Demand also don't require ownership of private automobiles and gives convenient access to a range of travel modes while socialising the high initial costs of switching to electric-vehicle based mobility. Integrated mobility on demand services can contribute to modal shift to public transport and also addresses spatial inefficiencies of private transport.<ref>[http://ec.europa.eu/transparency/regexpert/index.cfm?do=groupDetail.groupDetailDoc&id=34596&no=1 Smart mobility and services]</ref> The car also has a small role to play within smart mobility (it is particularly useful in a context which does not require personal ownership of the car, see above). Cars can be made to use intelligent transportation systems.
