The D'Ieteren group will deploy a fleet of 200 Volkswagen e-golfs and 150 Audi A3 g-trons as part of a Belgium-based shared mobility scheme with its technology partner Vulog. It aims to deliver a more environmentally respectful alternative to car ownership.
Called Poppy, the project will utilize these vehicles on a free-floating basis with the intention of providing users with instant access and the ability to locate the cars from their smartphones. In addition, Vulog will offer a SaaS platform for the service.
Grégory Ducongé, Vulog's CEO, said: "We're very proud to be working alongside the D'Ieteren group on this new project in Belgium. Given their local facilities and expertise, auto distributors have a key role to play in structuring new shared mobility services, thus making way for the future. Operating such a service today will be a real asset tomorrow when it comes to managing a shared autonomous fleet.”
