BERYLLS’S MOBILITY STU-
DY ANALYZES 200 CITIES
AROUND THE WORLD.
The UNO has forecast that the world population will rise from its cur-
rent 7.4 to almost 8.4 billion people by 2035. At the same time, the
mobility requirement will rapidly increase. The logical consequences
are higher traffic impact and environmental burdens, as well as rapidly
rising mobility costs.
In 2015, the global mobility budget was still EUR 3.6 trillion, and will more
than double by 2035. Berylls’s mobility study details the challenges and
opportunities that this entails. The analysis is based on data from 200
major cities.

NING GROUND.
The analysis shows that, by 2035, autonomous driving cars will be able to shoulder up to 28 percent of
inner-city trips in various sharing models. However, they do not have the potential to replace the entire
personal transportation. As a business model, however, they still offer tremendous potential and thereby
have a large influence on municipalities, current mobility operators, car manufacturers and the current
mobility platforms.
With mobility platforms such as Uber and Lyft, the first digitalization wave of personal transportation has over-
taken the municipalities and car manufacturers The latter are now actively driving the transformation with their
carsharing and ride-hailing service such as Car2Go, DriveNow, Moia or Maven.

percent extra kilometers will be additionally run. The individual configuration in a particular situation of
routes and stops, which responds dynamically to custo-
mer demand, or anticipates it, in conjunction with auto-
nomous driving: this is the formula for the new era of
urban mobility.
AUTONOMOUS DRIVING
COMPLEMENTS
CONVENTIONAL MODES.
The mobility study demonstrates that the large differences between the
cities and regions will develop. Those cities that adapt at an early stage
to the electrification of mobility and the digital operator model, and open
up their transport area to autonomous fleets will increasingly outpace
the latecomers in the “transformation of transportation.” Without alter-
native solution concepts, a further increase of the traffic jam problem will
be unavoidable in these cities, with all the negative consequences for the
population and environment.
Customers benefit from significantly lower costs compared to the pre-

sent passenger car. Fully automated shuttle services can be provided
more economically to customers than current bus trips. The municipa-
lities can therefore probably operate autonomous mobility concepts wi-
thout cross-subsidization, and thereby significantly reduce the burden
on the public purse. In Germany alone, about EUR 5.8 billion per year is
required for public transportation as cross-subsidization.

CONCENTRATED ON THE TRIAD
MARKETS.
Robert Ziffling, Consultant at Berylls and co-author

of the study adds: “For the automotive industry, the
development is both a threat and an opportunity. On
one hand, sales of passenger cars and light goods ve-
hicles will be reduced by 13 percent by the new of-
ferings, on the other hand, the operation of autono-
mous fleets will create a new attractive billion-dollar
market, in particular for the service network in the
Operations area. And we should not overlook that
fact that, despite all this, the global car sales market is
still rising - because of the extremely low rates of car
ownership in many world regions, where a speedy in-
troduction of autonomous vehicles still appears very
unlikely.
In addition, about 40 million special purpose vehicles

are necessary to serve the newly emerging demand
-with roughly eight to ten times higher utilization than
a private passenger car today. Each of these vehicles
achieves average revenue of about €60,000 per year.
In addition, the study allows conclusions to be drawn
about the need for change in traditional public trans-
portation companies. They must also continue to de-
velop structurally if they want to retain their leading
position in the cities in future. Matthias Kempf adds:
“The traditional control, pricing and financing models
must be called into question if autonomous offerings
show high potential for profitable self-sustaining ope-
ration, cannibalizing other transportation models. Pu-
blic service and economic interest no longer need to
stand in mutual contradiction.”
