Carsharing in France: Past, present and future
conference contribution
posted on 2009-03-18, 13:28 authored by Robert Clavel, Muriel Mariotto, Marcus EnochMarcus EnochCarsharing schemes are pay-as-you drive clubs that offer members access to a vehicle
without ownership. Beneficial to users because they can increase access to cars for
non car owners, access to a wide range of vehicle types and cost savings in some
cases, they are also attractive to policy makers because they can enhance mobility for
the less well off while cutting car use and resulting environmental and economic
impacts.
Yet while carsharing schemes have become relatively popular in some
countries such as Switzerland, the Netherlands, Canada and the USA since the late
1980s, there was very little activity that occurred in France until relatively recently.
The purpose of this paper then, is to look at how carsharing has developed in France
so far, and how it is likely to evolve in the future.
