作为一种创新的移动解决方案，共享车辆系统引起了人们的极大兴趣和活动。共享车辆系统，即汽车共享和车站车辆，由几个不同的人全天使用的车队组成。共享车辆提供了私家车的便利性，并且比单独的公共交通更具灵活性。从20世纪90年代至今，智能交通系统技术已不同程度地应用于共享系统，提供更好的可管理性和客户服务。如今，许多共享车辆服务提供商在其运营中都采用了一定程度的先进技术（在线预订、车辆跟踪、智能卡访问）。目前，共享车辆服务提供商（例如，汽车共享组织之间的智能卡访问）和交通运营商（例如，通过智能卡进行交通收费）之间的互操作性需求不断增长。互操作性可能会提高客户满意度和使用率，从而提高市场渗透率。同样，整体运营技术（在线预订和保险单）、客户互动以及某种程度上的车辆界面也可能会出现一些标准化。由于共享车辆系统仍然是一个相对较新的移动概念，因此全行业标准化方法还为时过早。尽管如此，人们仍试图找出许多重要问题，这些问题将在共享汽车提供商之间的互操作性讨论和未来行业标准的制定中发挥重要作用。在共享汽车系统发展的起步阶段，智能共享汽车系统的运营和权衡存在一些关键要素。讨论的主题包括车辆、用户与系统交互、用户与车辆交互以及系统操作。
There has been significant interest and activity in shared-use vehicle systems as an innovative mobility solution. Shared-use vehicle systems, that is, carsharing and station cars, consist of a fleet of vehicles used by several different individuals throughout the day. Shared-use vehicles offer the convenience of a private automobile and more flexibility than public transportation alone. From the 1990s to today, varying degrees of intelligent transportation system technologies have been applied to shared-used systems, providing better manageability and customer service. Many shared-use vehicle service providers today include some degree of advanced technologies (online reservations, vehicle tracking, smart card access) in their operations. Currently, there is a developing need for interoperability among shared-use vehicle service providers (e.g., smart card access among carsharing organizations) and transit operators (e.g., transit fare collection via smart cards). Interoperability will likely result in higher customer satisfaction and use, leading to greater market penetration. Similarly, some standardization will likely unfold for overall operational techniques (online reservations and insurance policies), customer interactions, and to some degree vehicle interfaces. Because shared-use vehicles systems are still a relatively new mobility concept, an industrywide standardization approach is still premature. Nevertheless, there are attempts to identify many of the important issues that will play a significant role in interoperability discussions among shared-use vehicle providers and the development of industry standards in the future. There are key elements in intelligent shared-use vehicle system operations and trade-offs encountered during the pioneering stage of shared-use vehicle system developments. Topics to discuss include vehicles, user–system interactions, user–vehicle interactions, and system operations.
