A method for providing a last mile vehicle service to a user. When the user starts a trip, a processor detects the user’s current and destination location data. The user may be notified of a parking location based on the traffic conditions so they can switch to a last mile vehicle service. Based on the location data, a plurality of last mile service providers are identified, each having a number of vehicles such as e-bikes, e-scooters and small cars. Distances between the user and the last mile service providers are determined. Travel times from the last mile service providers to the user destination are determined based on the type of vehicles at respective service providers. An optimal last mile service provider is selected based on the determined distances and travel times. Once the user arrives at the selected last mile service provider, the user destination data is synchronized into a device of a vehicle of the service provider.
