The rise of electric cars
The automobile sector is continuously being transformed. The number of companies which rely on sustainability and show their commitment to the environment is increasing every day. They do it through the use of electrical means of transport, which contaminate less than traditional ones.
The most prominent case is that of car2go, a subsidiary of German Daimler AG, which in 2008 launched an electric car rental service, charged per minutes of use, together with Smart, throughout European cities and in North America. The booking is made via a smartphone once the user has been registered in its database. After signing up, anyone can use the service in all the cities in the world where it is installed.
