Abstract

Smart mobility relates to the ability of integrating technology into transportation. When considering the transition to a greener mobility paradigm, several key elements of smart and sustainable dimensions have to be addressed. To allow outlining more efficient transportation solutions, current exploratory research presents and discusses a dedicated prospective conceptual framework. In this research, the discussion is supported by empirical data collected via a dedicated exploratory survey. The prospective framework structure and dimensions were approached in order to derive the focus from mere technical features, but also considering the final users’ perspectives and needs, so that its acceptability can be more effectively promoted. The main findings of this study are related to the greening effect of smart mobility, which allowed foreseeing increased benefits from integrating smart and sustainable solutions to improve mobility.
