Modeling the propensity to join carsharing using hybrid choice models and mixed survey data

Abstract

Carsharing combines the positive elements of both private and public transportation. This feature renders it attractive to a significant percentage of the population, especially younger people who do not own a car. To maximize the effectiveness of such systems, the characteristics of potential users have been investigated in this research.
