This concept has made its first outing at the Rencontres Auto Laval, last Thursday. The vehicle is sold as a model but will be presented in its standard version at the Geneva show. Modulgo is one of four concepts selected by the General Council of Yvelines in its call for projects for the city car of the future. This is a smart cities, the size of a Smart and proposing three front seats. It is obviously electric and displays a range between 100 and 150 km. But the essential lies elsewhere. Its designer, the company induct * like to offer businesses and communities in the form of a monthly multi-services on the mobile telephone. In the idea, the user would pay a subscription for a low cost in exchange for a certain number of miles. The package includes not only the journey from his home to a parking car sharing, but also made trips with other vehicles in the form of rent.
The concept is quite innovative, could be accompanied by even more radical idea: parking "dense", ie the smart car. Induct also plans to demonstrate in Geneva of an automated system where the parking is just to get the car and provides a place where she can be charged by induction. For information, Induction is also the architect of Cybergo, the automated electric shuttle will run from January 2011 through the streets of La Rochelle.
