| Urban transport round the world |
| Present transportation model, based on private cars, is getting old. In crowded cities it takes more time to driving than walking. Traffic congestion, energy shortage, and air pollution are serious problems in all cities all over the world. The transport mode of last century is no longer the best for the future. Driving private cars was the dominant mode of urban transport of last century, vehicle sharing will be the next future. We need to modify our lifestyle because of the big size of cities, and density. Millions of residents need to go to work everyday on a distance of more than 10 Km, this distance doesn't allow walking and bicycling. Buses that stop at all stations take too much time to cross the city. Metro could be the rigt choice, but it will take several decades to develope a good rail network. Because of the above reasons, the car was the choice of passenger transportation. In the past, mass transit systems was the right solution for all workers employed in a factory, that lived in the same area. Nowadays, the complicated economic structure of large cities, where each worker has different business time and different origin and destination, cars took place of mass transit system, being the most convenient and comfortable means for passenger transport. But the high demand for cars caused traffic congestion in all cities. Most people says that our society has a traffic problem, we prefer to say we have a passenger transport problem, and try to solve in a different way rather than using private cars, developing a new mode of transportation. We offer an alternative transportation mode for the 21st century. EasyGo bike sharing offers an easy and cheap solution to traffic congestion and air pollution. It will be hard at first to persuade people leave their cars at home. EasyGo is a solution to urban transportfor both residents and visitors. |

| A great opportunity to create a new urban transport system in China and India |
| China will surpass the US in terms of CO2 emissions by 2010 due to rapidly vehicle growth. The Chinese and Indian government have several options to change their urban transport development, coupling mobility with sustainable development. While western countries have a fossil fuel based infrastructure that cannot be easily replaced in the next future and few money, developing countries have the opportunity to avoid the mistake of a urban transport based on driving, creating an innovative and sustainable urban transport. |

| China's rapid transformation into a car culture |
Lately in China the number of private cars jumped from few thousands to million. A real automobile boom. Although the total vehicles in China are less than US and Europe, current motorization trend is becoming a problem due to traffic congestion, air pollution, and citizens health. Local authorities are looking for alternative fuels, and innovative mobility choices to promote a more sustainable development. Most local authorities have used growth of the auto industry to promote the economic growth of the region ignoring the central government directions about reducing emissions.
- China is the 2nd largest automobile market in the world
- China is one of the the largest car manufacturer, all big car manufacturers have set up plants in China
- Car sales are increasing year by year
- The explosion of car purchases and insufficient urban policies have created several environmental problems, traffic congestion, air quality, respiratory problems
Because the auto industry is one of the most important key to the economy growth, policymakers don't want to stop this new car culture, planning heavy investment in road capacity, and fuel efficiency standards. The government's decision to adopt European standards about fuel efficiency for new cars. |

| The need to create a sustainable transport strategy |
| After many years of debate, professors and academics of have found that public transport, walking and bicycles are the most appropriate and efficient components of a sustainable urban transport system. In the past, bicycles have been recreational and sport vehicles for high class people or used as a mode of transport for the low income class. In the 1980s most countries kept promoting the use of the automobile as the most appropriate mode of transport, as consequence of the modern conception of cities, which implied high speed and long distance. But because of traffic congestion, air pollution and global warming, lately professors and academics are promoting the re-inclusion of bicycling as part of a sustainable transport policy. |

| Why EasyGo bike sharing |
EasyGo bike sharing uses electric vehicles mostly electric bicycles coupled with a credit card reader and a sophisticated gps tracking system. As a result, EasyGo bike sharing doesn't require any rent stations, vehicles can be used by any credit card holder, or prepaid cards. Vehicles will be used from origin to destination only for a short time. Because of traffic jam, traffic lights, the average speed in a city is 20Km/h for a car, a little less for public buses that have to stop at all stations. The average speed of an electric bicycle is 15 Km/h. The use of an electric bicycle is the ideal choice of the modern society transport needs, high energy efficiency, eco friendly. The only thing a client needs is to use his card and start pedaling. EasyGo bike sharing is as easy as a bicycle, suitable to all people from children to elderly people. Adding some trikes, we could satisfy the needs of delivery of small parcels.
- Convenience, comfort, reliability
- Efficiency
- Flexibility
- Speed: 15 Km/hour in urban areas, 25 Km/hour out of town
- The promotion of clean and efficient mass transit systems
Local traffic congestion is caused by residents in business districts to go to work in the morning and in the afternoon to go back home, when the road capacity is no enough for so many cars. The first step to reduce traffic congestion is building larger roads, but when the volume of cars increased too much, the only solution is to restrict the traffic volume by administrative measures that doesn't allow to cross the city driving private cars. EasyGo bike sharing meets the public transport needs with the flexibility and convenience of a personal transportation system. EasyGo bike sharing uses electricity for transportation, and have fuel efficiency much more higher than that of car, a transport revolution that will improve urban living quality. Adopting EasyGo bike sharing, a city will reduce air pollution and noise, a great step to reduce global warming. |

| Innovative urban transport system to meet mass transportation needs |
| EasyGo bike sharing is a personal transportation system like bicycle, motorcycle and car. Personal but no privately owned. You can decide the itinerary, but the vehicle isn't yours. All vehicles are coordinated with a central control system. The choice of an electric bicycle is because the average occupancy of a car is 1 passenger. Just by changing the size of the car from 5 passengers to 1 passenger, it could be possible to reduce energy consumption. The concept of rent is different from others, all the passenger needs to do is to use his card and unlock the vehicle, going to destination, and return the vehicle in any square. There will be many bike stations but only a small number of vehicles at each station. Stations could be built directly inside buildings, shopping centers, hotels, schools, and train stations. |

| EasyGo applications |
| EasyGo bike sharing will change the urban lifestyle, people will enjoy the freedom of this new transport coupled with existing transportation modes. To build an extensive network isn't necessary huge infrastructure investments. EasyGo bike sharing can be first implemented in main central areas without an extensive network. Bicycles can go directly inside buildings. People can get to other buildings at any time without worring about parking. Visitors can park thir own car at a parking lot and uses bicycles to get to the destination. |

| EasyGo for urban areas |
| EasyGo bike sharing is designed for European cities with high population density such as Paris, London, Rome, and most middle sized cities in US. EasyGo essentially solves the traffic congestion problem. In congested areas, EasyGo bike sharing is faster, and convenient. Although public transport is well developed, the high density of cars make bus packed during rush hours. EasyGo bike sharing is the transportation system for the emerging middle class,it is an essential addition to existing transportation modes, doesn't replace existing transportation modes, instead it changes the way we use existing modes of transport and improve the performance of the whole transport system. A transport vehicle of the past for a better future. EasyGo bike sharing will help urban architects, transportation engineers, real estate developers, to plan a new urban transportation strategy. Old cities are no built for a huge volume of traffic, urban structure depends on the choice of transportation modes. |
