Munich is a city with over one million inhabitants, making it the most densely populated and the fastest growing city in Germany. It is already well-known for its daily traffic jams, loud traffic noise and exhaust emissions, all of which make new ideas urgently necessary.
Together with the Chair of Vehicle Technology at the University of Technology of Munich, Matthias Kempf, a partner at Berylls Strategy Advisors, I have therefore worked out three practical scenarios for operating an electric robotaxi fleet that will cover the entire city center (which is currently traveled by car) as a mobility service. With this outstanding vision, we wanted to find out whether individual mobility in Munich could be made more efficient, greener, more convenient and less expensive.
