Shared Mobility Business Models 2026: The Complete Guide

Shared mobility business models give users short-term access to a vehicle (car, e-bike, e-scooter, moped) instead of owning one.

2025 in Review: Advancing Equity, Capacity, and Awareness in Shared Mobility

This year reinforced something that’s core to movmi’s purpose: Shared mobility isn’t just a collection of services, it’s a pathway toward more vibrant, inclusive, and climate‑aligned communities.
