Shanghai Jiao Tong University and General Motors China have started a collaboration and joined in a quest for sustainable urban mobility. Shanghai Jiao Tong University hopes this project will result in a model that will be used to widely integrate small electric vehicles (EVs) with the transportation network. The coming program plans on strengthening the structure of urban environments with EV-sharing programs.

General Motors China has committed to initiating and integrating such an EV-sharing program featuring the Chevrolet EN-V 2.0 starting next year. These dynamic electric vehicles use about a third of the footprint of a traditional vehicle, turn on a dime, and weigh less than 500 kilograms at about 1.5 meters in length.

These technologically keen vehicles carry two passengers. This GM China collaboration with the University’s Minhang campus in Shanghai activates an assessment of the EN-V 2.0 (the benefits and challenges) in a vehicle-sharing transportation model integrated with transit, bicycles, cars, and shuttle buses.

Green Car Congress quotes GM: “We will apply these learnings to the development of future urban mobility transportation solutions, not just for China but for the world,” said Matt Tsien, GM executive vice president and president of GM China.

“Electric vehicles represent the transportation mode of the future, but the big topic now is how to develop them,” according to Yin Chengliang, vice president of the Shanghai Jiao Tong University Automotive Engineering School. “This project will explore a model that integrates electric vehicles with the transportation network and intelligent transportation system.”
