A Literature Review on Potential Decision Problems for Vehicle Sharing Systems

Öz

Vehicle Sharing (VS) is a car rental model where people rent vehicles for short periods, usually hourly. In this system, users can reserve a vehicle and have a short-term use, and the stages of receiving and delivering the vehicle belong to the person himself. Vehicle Sharing Systems (VSS), on the other hand, are systems that include a fleet of vehicles with small and medium sizes for use by a relatively large group of members. VSS are divided into five groups according to the vehicles used; such as Bicycle Sharing Systems (BSS), Car Sharing Systems (CSS), Autonomous Connected Electric Vehicle Sharing Systems (ACEV-SS), Electric Car Sharing Systems (eCSS), and Electric Small Vehicles Sharing Systems (ESVSS). VSS's are examined under four sub-headings due to how they operate: preferred travel type, vehicle imbalance management strategy, pricing strategy, and parking organization. In this study, decision problems encountered at strategic, tactical, and operational levels for CSS are determined and the existing studies in the literature are examined. The CSSs in these studies are classified according to their functioning types. In addition, decision problems are determined by examining the studies available in the literature for eCSS, and the eCSS in these studies are classified according to their functioning types. This study aims to provide the researchers with a general perspective on the topic by examining the studies on VSS.
