The age of autonomous vehicles is fast approaching, according to new survey results by the World Economic Forum. Nearly 60% of consumers in cities around the world are willing to travel in self-driving vehicles. In the consumer survey among 5,500 respondents in ten countries, acceptance is highest in emerging markets, such as China, India, and the United Arab Emirates; and about 50% in the United States and the United Kingdom; and acceptance rates were lowest in Japan and Germany. As part of a project, the World Economic Forum also conducted interviews with over 20 city policy makers and transport authorities from cities such as Dubai, Helsinki, New York, Amsterdam, Singapore, and Toronto about their expectations for self-driving vehicles. The survey showed that most city authorities believe that applications such as shared self-driving vehicles are coming very quickly and will have the potential to be the last-mile solution for public transport. City planners and governments thus need to prepare for the introduction of self-driving cars-smart mobility cities such as Gothenburg and Singapore are already doing so.
