Abstract

Car sharing systems for commercial pickup/delivery trucks have great potentials to reduce the number of vehicles in urban areas by establishing efficient urban logistics systems and shifting car commuters using company cars into public transport. This paper presents social effects of car sharing systems using electric vans in Osaka, Japan as well as analyses on the feasibility of real operation for the systems incorporating the total costs incurred in the test project and the willingness to pay of companies who have been interested in the systems.
