ePowered Fleets Hamburg – preliminary results
● aprox. 500 EVs (mainly BEVs or REEVs) in 230 company fleets
● from one-man business to multinationals, fleets of 1 to 1.000+ vehicles
● 25% of the EVs in rural communities
● EVs as a reliable, modern, eco-
friendly means of transportation;
85% generally positive

driving data sample of
50 EVs
ePowered Fleets Hamburg – preliminary results
● most fleet operators testing 1-2 EVs
● gaining first experiences
● especially electric pool cars sometimes poorly integrated;
lack of systematic disposition
● often limited to single purposes in
urban surroundings
● use of EVs as company cars mostly
in senior management

share – user characteristics and behaviour
● flex CS users: young, above average level of education, live in
cities, affinity for ICT systems
● modal split – flex CS users…
‒ are more multimodal in their travel behaviour than average
‒ often combine flex CS with public transport
● general trend: increasing number of young adults without own
car
● car-sharing reacts to that trend by facilitating urban mobility for
young generation without own car

share – use of electric and conventional flex CS
● users describe car-sharing use as fun, comfortable, time-
saving, but expensive and uncertain due to limited number of
vehicles
● EVs are perceived as equally flexible and useful as
conventional vehicles in flex CS
● users perceive EVs as more environmentally friendly
compared to conventional vehicles in flex CS

● Climate and air quality goals require solutions for road transport
● Innovative, enthusiastic users can be convinced to…
‒ switch from conventional cars to EVs
‒ switch from private car use to a multimodal mix including car-sharing
… and their perspective is generally positive about flex CS and EVs
● The broad majority needs to experience concrete advantages in
every-day use
● financial support and expansion of infrastructures only is probably
not sufficient, additional measures are required
