The purpose of this paper is to provide an analysis of potential benefits of a fleet of shared autonomous taxis “aTaxis”, in this paper referred to as Shared Autonomous Vehicles (SAV)) when replacing private car commuter trips in a metropolitan area. We develop a framework for dynamic allocation of SAVs to passenger trips, empty-vehicle routing and multi-criteria evaluation with regard to passenger waiting time, trip times and fleet size. Using a dynamic representation of current private vehicle demand for the Stockholm metropolitan area and a detailed network representation, different scenarios (varying levels of accepted passenger waiting time at origin and accepted % increase in travel time) are compared with respect to passenger travel time, number of vehicles needed and vehicle mileage. The results indicate that an SAV-based personal transport system has the potential to provide an on-demand door-to-door transport with a high level of service, using 5 % of today's private cars and parking places. In order to provide an environmental benefit and to reduce total mileage, an SAV-based personal transport system requires users to accept ride-sharing, allowing a maximum 30% increase of their travel time (13% on average) and a start time window of 10 minutes. ; QC 20160530
