Have you ever thought about taking a ride in a robo-taxi or robo-shuttle? We certainly have – because autonomous robo-taxis and people movers have the potential to add a whole new dynamic to the mobility transition and make public transportation even more attractive and efficient. But who are the potential users and what is the market potential for shared autonomous vehicles?
PwC Whitepaper: The Evolution of Shared Autonomous Vehicles (SAV) – Part 1: Market potential, user acceptance and early adopter groups
As part of a research project at the PwC Lab for Smart Mobility, Prof. Andreas Herrmann, Felix Kuhnert, Dr. Philipp Scharfenberger, Dr. Peter Kauschke, Hartmut Güthner and Marvin Greifenstein took a look at the future development of autonomous mobility solutions.
Here are some of the key takeaways from the white paper:
- Four global megatrends are transforming the mobility sector: technological progress, climate change, rapid urbanization, and demographic and social change.
- The market potential is significant: Up to 26.4 million SAV units are expected by 2040.
- A critical success factor is public acceptance of autonomous mobility. A systematic analysis of more than 100 studies identified three groups of early adopters: “Young Free Adventurers”, “Urban Professionals”, “Modern Sustainable Families”.
- For a successful market entry, cooperation between legislators, transport authorities, transport companies, mobility providers, vehicle manufacturers and suppliers is crucial.
The first part of our white paper series provides a roadmap for overcoming the challenges and highlights the opportunities presented by the introduction of shared autonomous vehicles.
