    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

    TaxiBots combined with high-capacity public transport could remove 9 out of every 10 cars in a mid-sized European city. Even in the scenario that least reduces the number of cars (AutoVots without high-capacity public transport), nearly eight out of ten cars could be removed. UITP, 2015
