The B-to-B car-sharing represents a real solution for the future. As such, according to a Frost&Sullivan analysis, over 4 000 European companies should incorporate a car-sharing service by 2020. Then, experts estimate that 80 000 vehicles should be in car-sharing in European companies by 2018-2020. The number of companies on the continent providing their employees with a car-sharing service will increase from 200 in 2013 to 4 000 in 2020 and will represent 0,5% of the global fleet of the European companies (0,01% in 2013).
