Electric car sharing on the horizon

[SINGAPORE] A fresh stab at car sharing in Singapore may be in the works - the electric way.

French electric car-sharing provider Autolib', which expects its Paris operations to break even this summer, has had discussions with the Land Transport Authority (LTA) to see if it can pilot a similar programme here.

Its value proposition: a green transport alternative for customers who baulk at the cost of owning a car and finding parking space, but still want to drive.
