Abstract Abstract: Smart mobility is the integration of technologies and different mobility solutions. It establishes interconnected transport networks that transport individuals and products more efficiently and sustainably. It encompasses the use of conventional modes of transportation, such as motor vehicles, electric vehicles, public transportation, ridesharing, and on-demand services. The recognition of traffic congestion and decreased logistical efficiency have led to the increasing adoption of smart mobility systems. The data-enabled and technologically upgraded vehicles through smart mobility have the potential to transform people’s lives significantly. The continuously growing urban population worsens challenges related to conventional accessibility and efficient transit. Smart mobility encompasses enhanced public transportation networks, micro-mobility options, ride-sharing services, carsharing programmes, intelligent logistics and freight transportation systems, autonomous vehicles, logistics drones, and unmanned aerial vehicles. Different innovative transport projects have been implemented worldwide recently, and the public and commercial sectors have increasingly supported them. Although most intelligent mobility businesses concentrate on stand-alone solutions, ecosystems may provide more value when integrated. This article explores the opportunities and challenges of smart mobility adoption in sustainable smart cities to establish a growing ecosystem. Graphical abstract: (Figure presented.) Highlights: This study explores smart mobility adoption in sustainable smart cities to establish a growing ecosystem. The opportunities and challenges of smart mobility adoption are discussed in this study. This study sheds light on the smart mobility ecosystem framework and its layers. Discussion: Amidst the current volatile and uncertain environment, our transportation systems substantially influence our mobility, daily routines, and engagement with the environment. Using advanced technologies will make the future transportation system more reliable, streamlined, and sustainable. Implementing smart mobility will enhance operational effectiveness, yielding advantages for enterprises and the whole economy. Substantial decreases in carbon dioxide emissions and pollution would benefit city residents and the environment. Smart mobility has the capacity to decrease the number of trips and make trips more energy-efficient and environmentally sustainable. This can be achieved by enhancing the efficiency of public transportation, promoting the use of reliable and easily accessible transportation networks, and reducing the dependence on personal vehicles. The future of transportation is evident: autonomous vehicles that can be summoned as needed, efficient coordination between buses, trains, and airlines through instant communication, and a flexible urban traffic system that adapts to changes in demand. © The Author(s), under exclusive licence to The Materials Research Society 2024.
