Abstract

This article describes the relationship between digitalization and sustainability, taking mobility as an example. We distinguish five innovation paths with regard to the digitalization of mobility. Together, these innovations are expected to deliver massive gains in efficiency and traffic safety. But as well as opportunities, there are also risks. Following this introduction and a definition of terms (Sect. 2), we outline the innovation paths along which digitalization can proceed in the area of transportation (Sect. 3) and the risks that are involved (Sect. 4). Finally, we summarize our findings and draw some conclusions (Sect. 5).
