The research covers four areas: the mobility enterprise concept, where consumer acceptance of a restricted use urban car is being tested, as a second car and in conjunction with access to a time-shared fleet of 'touring' cars; determination of performance and capacity specifications of such an urban car, using an on-board data acquisition system; the definition of such an urban car, with special attention to crashworthiness/crash avoidance trade-offs; and the use of an urban mini/micro van for general delivery and transport of the elderly and handicapped.
