“…Although the tourist community (particularly those not using a private vehicle between home and destination) offers a potential market for such services, few are offered. One study in Germany [10] found that from a sample of 65 car share organisations only four named tourists as a potential group and none tailored their offerings to this group. Shaheen and Cohen's international survey [6] also identified that 'neighbourhood residential' was the predominant carsharing market in the majority of countries, followed by 'business'.…”

“…Car-sharing has the potential to replace five to six private cars and research suggests that former car owners reduce their energy consumption for transport by some 50% when they join a car-sharing scheme (Loose, Mohr and Nobis, 2006).…”

The traditional goods-dominant logic of marketing is under challenge and leading researchers are now emphasizing the new service-dominant logic (Vargo and Lusch, 2004). One of the key foundational propositions of this logic is the customer as "always being a co-creator of value" where "the brand becomes the experience" (Prahalad, 2004). In this paper, the authors examine the concept of brand relationship experience in the context of co-creation and service-dominant logic and outline a conceptual model for designing and managing the customer experience. Case study research illustrates how this model helps in the design and management of the brand relationship experience for an innovative new product.

“…Car-free housing projects are seen as a way of getting away from frequent car use and developing more liveable, pedestrian cities with more public recreational space (GlotzRichter, 1995;Scheurer, 2001). They are part of a larger movement promoting pedestrian zones, home zones (Barrell and Whitehouse, 2004), car-sharing (Cervero, 2003;Loose et al, 2006;Prettenthaler and Steininger, 1999), and shifting the urban transportation mix towards more sustainable modes of transport (Wright and Curtis, 2005;Zacharias, 2003). Car-free housing projects have not yet been subject to academic study, except for the overview by Scheurer (2001) and the documentation of the implementation of a project in the German city of Freiburg Nobis, 2003).…”

A case-control study of the car-free model housing project in Vienna was conducted to evaluate whether people living in this settlement have more 'sustainable lifestyles' than people living in comparable buildings in Vienna. Another aim was to identify the lifestyle characteristics and household activities which significantly influence the environmental impact of the residents of the car-free housing project and a control group. The control group, referred to as the reference settlement, was chosen from a nearby building complex, with similar characteristics, but without the car-free feature. Household consumption patterns were estimated based on interviews in combination with data from the Austrian consumer expenditure survey and the national accounts. The evaluation of household environmental impacts uses emissions estimates from the Austrian national accounting matrices including environmental accounts and data from life-cycle assessments.Households from the car-free settlement have substantially lower environmental impacts in the categories of ground transportation and energy use; their CO 2 emissions of these two categories are less than 50% of those living in the reference settlement. The households in the car-free settlement have somewhat higher emissions in the categories air transport, nutrition, and 'other' consumption, reflecting the higher income per-capita. As a result, the CO 2 emissions are only slightly lower than in the reference settlement, but the emissions intensity is 20% lower. Both household groups have significantly lower environmental impacts than the Austrian average reflecting less car use and cleaner heating energy in Vienna.
