- Case studies vary trip generation rates, trip distribution patterns, network congestion
levels, service area size, vehicle relocation strategies, and fleet size. Preliminary results
indicate that each SAV can replace around eleven conventional vehicles, but adds up to
10% more travel distance than comparable non-SAV trips, resulting in overall beneficial
emissions impacts, once fleet-efficiency changes and embodied versus in-use emissions
are assessed. Fagnant & Kockelman, 2009
