Mobility megatrends and how to meet them
11/17/2021: In 1886 Karl Benz’ automobile revolutionised the world. Today, connected, autonomous, and shared mobility services are part of daily life and have changed the way consumers travel. At SOS International we pay attention to the mobility megatrends and plan actions to stay relevant to the market.
Technology will continue to change the mobility business, and the megatrends bring benefits as well as challenges to businesses and consumers. Digitalisation and sustainability are some of the key drivers for the changes.
How SOS International meets the megatrends
At SOS International, we prepare for and develop our business to correlate with the megatrends:
- We constantly pay attention to and plan actions that meet market trends and demands. We investigate strategic partnerships, we digitalise our business and focus on new ways of working, and we explore and develop solutions that meet customer and end-user needs, says Ellen Trolle, EVP Mobility Division in SOS International.
- We focus on the acute situation on the road and on building remote, preventive, and proactive solutions that underlines a valuable and smooth customer journey.
Electric charger in service car
As an example, roadside assistance service cars in Copenhagen and Oslo are equipped with an electrical charger that enables the electric vehicle with 15 minutes of power for the driver to reach a charging station.
In Sweden, the SOS International roadside assistance business has enabled the use of sharing-economy services as a flexible alternative when temporary transport is required.
