Resumo(s)
Car sharing is introduced as an innovative, technology-driven mobility service to Lisbon’s existing
mobility mix, thus providing a mechanism to the growing transportation challenges the city is facing
today. Urbanization and dominating motorized travel have come at economic, environmental, and
social costs that car sharing aims to compensate and even reverse. The present thesis develops a
theoretical framework – building on the concepts of urban mobility, automotive disruption as well as
environmental pressures – to assist in gaining and improving the understanding of car sharing.
Further, it discusses its implications including car ownership reduction and accompanying side effects
and ultimately, necessary measures are recommended to accelerate the adoption rate of car sharing
among consumers, and with that, its expected benefits.
