With its on-demand ride-sharing technology developed in-house, moovel also provides a complement to public transportation in the city, which can be used as an additional support especially in the evening hours.
Since October 2018 in Los Angeles, app-based shared rides in Mercedes-Benz vehicles based on moovel on-demand technology have been available in the city center.
Another innovation from Daimler’s wholly-owned mobility subsidiary is the digital marketplace, which was launched in Berlin in September and is now part of the product portfolio. The most important feature of moovel is new Software-as-a-Service with a flexible modeling of payment flows, which is particularly crucial for intermodal journeys.
The state-of-the-art solution is designed to help cities and transit authorities develop into MaaS providers.

About Ken Zino
Ken Zino, editor and publisher of AutoInformed, is a versatile auto industry participant with global experience spanning decades in print and broadcast journalism, as well as social media. He has automobile testing, marketing, public relations and communications experience. He is past president of The International Motor Press Assn, the Detroit Press Club, founding member and first President of the Automotive Press Assn. He is a member of APA, IMPA and the Midwest Automotive Press Assn.
He also brings an historical perspective while citing their contemporary relevance of the work of legendary auto writers such as Ken Purdy, Jim Dunne or Jerry Flint, or writers such as Red Smith, Mark Twain, Thomas Jefferson – all to bring perspective to a chaotic automotive universe.
Above all, decades after he first drove a car, Zino still revels in the sound of the exhaust as the throttle is blipped during a downshift and the driver’s rush that occurs when the entry, apex and exit points of a turn are smoothly and swiftly crossed. It’s the beginning of a perfect lap.
AutoInformed has an editorial philosophy that loves transportation machines of all kinds while promoting critical thinking about the future use of cars and trucks.
Zino builds AutoInformed from his background in automotive journalism starting at Hearst Publishing in New York City on Motor and MotorTech Magazines and car testing where he reviewed hundreds of vehicles in his decade-long stint as the Detroit Bureau Chief of Road & Track magazine. Zino has also worked in Europe, and Asia – now the largest automotive market in the world with China at its center.
