Abstract
Urban mobility plays a key role in the ecosystems of complex smart cities. It is considered a key factor in enabling cities to become more intelligent, which highlights the importance of identifying the drivers that improve the intelligence of cities. In this study, we investigate the main drivers with the potential to increase urban mobility intelligence and assign them a priority. Following on from a systematic review of the literature, we conducted broad and detailed bibliographic research based on the recommendations of the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA). We also surveyed 181 professionals working in the field concerned to confirm the importance of different drivers and assign them a level of priority. The results show that 27 drivers identified in the literature were considered important, of which seven, related to city governance and technical solutions, were considered the most important to increase urban mobility intelligence.

Smart mobility has been a theme increasingly present in the sustainability agendas in response to the impacts of transportation systems in cities. It is considered a key factor for cities to become more intelligent, making it important to identify drivers to improve mobility intelligence
Based on extensive and detailed bibliographic research, we identify 26 drivers that increase urban mobility intelligence, determined by 181 professionals working in the field
Summary
Smart mobility has become an increasingly present theme in sustainability agendas in response to the impacts of transportation systems in cities. The concept of smart mobility, which has been addressed as intrinsically associated with smart cities [2,3,4,5,6,7], is considered an essential driver for increasing the intelligence of cities [8]. There has been an increase in the use of” smart city” terminology in academia; there is no consensus regarding the definition of the smart city concept [8,9,10]. We agree with Guedes et al [8], who states that ”a more current and comprehensive way of understanding a smart city from the integration of existing knowledge and experiences is that of an innovative city, which combines aspects of intelligence and sustainability through a governance that integrates stakeholder interactions and uses the technology.”.
