Singapore starts the Autolib – Le Figaro

After starting the Autolib in Paris, the French group Bolloré will install an electric car sharing system in the city of Singapore.

the Bolloré group, which developed Autolib in Paris, was chosen by the city state of Singapore to set up an electric car-sharing service. This contract was under discussion for many months.

The contract is important. It covers a fleet of 1,000 electric vehicles, 2,000 charging stations and infrastructure necessary to the functioning of a car-sharing service. The implementation will start from 2017. In size, it is the second largest car-sharing that will develop the Breton group service behind that of Paris, which now has more than 3,500 vehicles five years after launch.

Bolloré benefits from its ability to offer a comprehensive, since the production of electric cars, the terminals and IT developments to manage the car-sharing service itself but also management recharging vehicles.

This agreement is interesting to Bolloré in terms of image. Singapore is particularly advanced in all areas related to new modes of mobility. Winning such a contract represents a great showcase for the car-sharing service developed by the French group. Bolloré will install a center of innovation in the Asian city, dedicated to the development of new electricity storage technologies and electric mobility.

Bolloré continues to win contracts constituting excellent vectors communication. Paris already was. The choice of the city of Indianapolis was also symbolic: the temple of motorsport in the United States, since that is where stands the legendary race of the Indianapolis 500.
