But you have to have in mind that Car2go first large scale "given away" the car-sharing participation. Would this make the classic car clubs and such number of participants would not be unrealistic.

records after 100 days, a little clearer out how the use is. There will be 500-1000 uses. The use takes about 15 minutes. So that the vehicles about 1 hour a day on the go. The number of trips is less than 1% of the volume of public transport in Ulm dar. Based on the individual participants is so far an average of 0.1 trips per day and participants, average in Germany of 3.3 trips per day. Whether providing the averages a suitable picture, you can say serious because the dispersion is unknown. As the Süddeutsche

The third frequent mention of the ride into town (also instead of having a car). Perhaps the free parking of Car2go motivate the parking garages downtown are your own car to leave.
