A feasibility study on EV-sharing application to residential area and its characteristics

Car sharing has currently become widely adopted throughout Western Europe and North America according to the unique strengths of being an alternative means of transport in reducing number of car ownership, traffic congestion, parking spaces and environmental impacts. However, if this new mobility is applied in a developing city, particularly, Bangkok residential area where traffic and environmental situation are critical, what factors would it need in order to arrive at the success of car sharing application? The aim of this paper is to find whether or not there is the feasibility to apply electric vehicle sharing in Bangkok residential area.
