  • Feasibility Study on Launching of Shared New Energy Vehicles in Wuxi City
    2018 9th International Symposium on Advanced Education and Management (ISAEM 2018) Feasibility Study on Launching of Shared New Energy Vehicles in Wuxi City Feng Xia School of Automotive Technology, Wuxi Vocational Institute of Commerce, Wuxi, Jiangsu, 214153, China [email protected] Keywords: Shared vehicles; Status quo; Development studies Abstract: Shared vehicles not only bring convenience to urban people to use cars, but also meet the needs of "car-free people", and have been recognized among many citizens. This paper discusses the status quo and development of shared vehicles in Wuxi city, and provides reference for the future entrepreneurship of shared vehicles. Through scientific design of research content and reasonable development of practice plan, different objects were investigated and surveyed in the form of field visit and consultation of users, by distribution of survey questionnaire. 1. Introduction High oil prices have led to a shift in many people’s attitudes towards car-sharing, and they tend to join the “car-sharing” team. The number of car-sharing members in the United States, Canada and other countries has increased rapidly, with nearly 100,000 members in the United States. “Car-sharing” is also booming in countries such as the Netherlands, Belgium, Denmark, Italy and the United Kingdom. Major cities in Belgium have set up special parking spaces for shared vehicles like taxis [1]. The government wants the number of “car-sharing members” to triple by 2010. The Dutch capital, Amsterdam, has 310 shared car stops. Germany is considering amending its laws, allowing special parking spaces for shared cars in residential areas. In the future, "car-sharing" could develop into a daily car service that is more flexible in terms of time, more spatial and less expensive than traditional car rental services, according to George Welk, a sociology and automotive expert at the Institute of Climate, Environment and Energy in Upetal, Germany [2].
