London, 21 August 2014: TechNavio, the independent tech-focused global research firm, has published a report on the Global Carsharing Market 2014-2018, which is expected to grow at a CAGR of 35.64 percent during the period 2013-2018.
Carsharing is a membership-based, self-service system that contains a network of stations and vehicles, which is an alternative to traditional car ownership for individuals and companies. In this system, vehicles are owned by a separate firm, organization or individuals and are shared by users for short periods of time. Carsharing is developing into a globalized industry, providing many transportation, land use, environmental, and social benefits.
“The demand for carsharing has increased significantly because of the cost advantages it offers users. It enables consumers to use vehicles without being burdened by ownership costs,” says Faisal Ghaus, Vice President of TechNavio.
