With Flinkster, Deutsche Bahn supplements its railway services by providing cars for DB customers in order to get to the final destination. With now more than 800 stations in 140 cities in Germany, Flinkster has widened its concept with the aim to bring a unique mobility solution to a broad user base. The Flinkster car sharing model addresses people between 24 and 45 years of age within large and mid-size cities (INTERVIEW 2012). With a fleet of 2.500 cars in urban areas all over the country and a wide range of car types and models available, Flinkster is the biggest car sharing network in Germany. Due to Flinkster`s cooperation with other car sharing service providers in Europe, the round about 190.000 Flinkster customers have access to 2.000 additional cars in Austria, Switzerland, and the Netherlands (DEUTSCHE BAHN 2012, STATTAUTO 2012, FLINKSTER 2012). Other- wise, users of smaller German car sharing services which are partnering with Flinkster e.g. “STATTAUTO”, “teilAuto”, “book-n-drive”, “einfach mobil carsharing”, and “grünes- auto” have access to cars of the Flinkster car fleet. Our approach facing the “4C`s” as part of the sustainability marketing mix in the case of the mobility service and car sharing provider Flinkster is based on intensive internet search, an interview conducted with the marketing manager of Flinkster, Mr. Oscar Péréz, an monthly cost calculation tool developed by ourselves and hand-on field research including test drives. 1 2 Processes of Flinkster In order to use the Flinkster car sharing network, you generally need to follow three steps. Before you can drive off with a car of your choice, you have to register and book a car online first. The requirement of becoming an eligible member of the Flinkster programm is to hold a valid driver`s license. Customers under 25 years of age have a restrictive choice concerning car categories meaning that they are only allowed to use small and van size cars. In the following, we will evaluate the registration and booking processes of Flinkster in more detail. STEPS TO USE THE FLINKSTER CAR SHARING • Registration process 1 • Booking 2 3 • Driving Before using the Flinkster service, you first need to get registered at Flinkster`s website www.flinkster.de. In order to register, you simply follow three steps. First, you have the choice between a national, local, or business tariff depending on your planned usage frequency and whether you are a private or a business user. Whereas the national tariff fits bestFigure for 1 Processpeople of who using occasionally Flinkster (own wantillustration) to use a car, the local tariff is best for frequent car sharing users leading to a monthly fee and a lower rate per hour used compared to the national tariff, which does not include a monthly subscription fee. For some people, the decision for a specific tariff might rather be difficult as they don`t know right away how frequent they will be using the service. Due to a minimal contract duration of 12 months for the local tariff switching from one tariff to another is difficult or may even have a deterrent effect which may influence customers to turn towards the national tariff right from the 2 beginning. On the other hand, customers can switch into the local tariff if they feel that they are using the service more frequently. After registering with your personal data and billing information (debit or credit card accepted) you will receive your personal access data including a customer ID and password via E-Mail. To obtain your customer ID card and a chip attached to your driver`s license, you need to find and go to a Flinkster sales office, which usually is a DB service center or travel agency located in or close to German train stations or airports. The Flinkster website will assist you with the search for near-by locations. For legitimation purposes you need to bring your driver`s license and passport. REGISTRATION PROCESS • Choose tariff 1 • Register with your personal data and billing 2 information • Search and go to sales office for legititmation 3 and customer ID card pick-up Figure 2 Flinkster registration process (own illustration) Once you are a registered Flinkster user, it only takes three further steps to book a car. You can reserve a car anywhere at any time you like via

  • Strategic Scenario Planning for the German Carsharing Industry – 2025
    Strategic Scenario Planning for the German Carsharing Industry – 2025 Carolin von Sethe Working Paper Version 1 March 18th, 2016 I Abstract II I Abstract What happens when the Internet of Things1, traditional mobility and the modern consumer coalesce? Nobody knows yet. The increasing uncertainty and complexity that result from the pace of technological progress, blurring boundaries between industry ecosystems and the volatile macroeconomic environment affect future mobility severely. Carsharing is at the forefront of an evolution that points towards a secular shift from individually owned-and-operated automobiles to mobility-on-demand. The purpose of this study is to develop four plausible scenarios for the future of the German carsharing industry in the year 2025 by applying the HHL- Roland Berger scenario development approach and to establish adequate core and optional strategies to aid strategic decision making of managers from companies in the carsharing ecosystem. Key Words: Scenario-based Strategic Planning ∙ Carsharing ∙ Shared Mobility ∙ Strategic Decision Making 1 The Internet of Things (short: IoT) is a term coined for the network of and communication between all devices with enabled Internet connection (Morgan, 2014).

This chapter reviews key terms and definitions for carsharing, common carsharing business models, and existing impact studies. Next, the chapter discusses the commodification and aggregation of mobility services and the role of Mobility on Demand (MOD) and Mobility as a Service (MaaS) on carsharing. Finally, the chapter concludes with a discussion of how the convergence of electrification and automation is changing carsharing, leading to shared automated and electric vehicle (SAEV) fleets. Keywords: Carsharing, Shared mobility, Mobility on Demand (MOD), Mobility as a Service (MaaS), Shared automated electric vehicles (SAEVs) 1 INTRODUCTION Across the globe, innovative and emerging mobility services are offering residents, businesses, travelers, and other users more options for on-demand mobility. In recent years, carsharing has grown rapidly due to changing perspectives toward transportation, car ownership, business and institutional fleet ownership, and urban lifestyles.

The New Mobility and Its Impact on Vehicle Sales Julien Bert, Brian Collie, Marco Gerrits, and Gang Xu February 2016 AT A GLANCE The sharing economy is disrupting markets around the globe, including the market for mobility services. Although car sharing will expand quickly and widely, its effect on new-car sales will be muted, because most drivers will not forgo car ownership entirely and because some share of lost sales will be offset by sales into car-sharing fleets in large urban areas. How the Industry Will Change The trend toward car sharing should nonetheless make automotive OEMs consider reconceiving their mission, at least in part. While continuing to serve as manufac- turers and distributors of personally owned vehicles, OEMs should also experiment with providing mobility services and devise new business models accordingly.

The Urban Mobility Index 2.0 was developed by Arthur D. Little; the UITP is independent of this index, which does not necessarily reflect its opinion. Strategic imperatives for cities have been developed together with the UITP. Forewords Mobility has significantly evolved in the past, under the influence of industrial evolutions. Following the first industrial revolution enabled by the invention of steam powered technology, the railway industry emerged. The second industrial revolution with mass production enabled the emergence of the automobile industry and, closer to us, the third industrial revolution with digitalization enabled the emergence of computer-aided travelling (for example GPS in a car). Today we are entering what could be called a fourth industrial revolution, represented by industry and technology convergence, leading to the emergence of for example clean energy vehicles or connected mobility solutions.

Sustainable mobility is a solution and an important dimension of a Smart City. Shared mobility services are part of sustainable mobility and they are widening its portfolio especially in the past decade. However, the number of users is still low compared to its high potential, and innovative solutions can only succeed with the combination of increasing the awareness of citizens, incentivizing them, and promoting their behavioural change. This paper is dedicated to the shared mobility business models as part of the collaborative consumption, and finding out the challenges and opportunities of this emerging market in a Swedish context and comparing it to a Moroccan one.
