The Future of Electric Shuttle Adoption

Globally, transport systems depend almost entirely on oil and are a major source of greenhouse gasses and other emissions. Energy policies today rely heavily on the diversification of transport fuels, energy efficiency improvement, and emission reduction. The use of grid-connected vehicles offers great potential to meet these demanding needs. Electric vehicles have gained interest and acceptance worldwide as a promising long-term potential solution for sustainable personal mobility. The rapid penetration of electric shuttles by battery-powered vehicles has led to this development.

The electric shuttles offer a wide range of benefits, most importantly reducing the level of air pollution. Manufacturers’ continued focus on battery advances and heavy investments in innovative technology may open up new opportunities for growth in the electric shuttle market.

In a recent survey carried out by the Baden-Württemberg Center for Solar Energy and Hydrogen Research (ZSW), the number of electric vehicles on the road increased to 3.2 million in 2018.

The design of this electric shuttle resembles a four-wheel pod with sliding glass doors that would comfortably accommodate four passengers, with Wi-Fi and advanced camera monitoring as part of its modern attractiveness and functionality. Relatively low maintenance costs and less demand for services lead directly to the growth of the electric shuttle market. Leading manufacturers focus on the incorporation of innovative software and hardware, radical designs and lightweight materials to keep pace with recent trends in the automotive industry.

For fast and convenient services, people prefer to reserve their seats in public transport by means of online rental services while returning home, traveling to the office, or other activities. To improve their competitive position, the leading companies cooperate with the online rental service providers. This has resulted in an increasing number of electric shuttle passengers.

Crucial information on recent trends and developments on the global market is compiled in the readers, investors, and stakeholders report. The report provides stakeholders and investors with a broader picture of the global electric shuttle market. Driverless electric shuttles that glide through the city center almost silently and are closely connected to their environment, and will soon be a common sight on the city streets, whether they transport goods or people.
