SRF news program warns: Transport threatens net-zero target – Sponti-Car provides concrete solutions

Traffic jam on the A1 towards Bern – typical traffic in Switzerland that endangers the net-zero target

Switzerland aims to achieve net‑zero emissions by 2050. According to the latest SRF-Tagesschau we are however not on track – especially the transport sector is lagging far behind. New federal figures make it clear: without significantly stronger measures in transport, the ambitious climate target will be missed.

Exactly here, Sponti-Car steps in. With our e‑carsharing offer in ländlichen communities we have been showing for years how sustainable and affordable Mobilität works in practice – without high fixed costs and with real impact fürs climate.

Traffic as the biggest problem – Sponti-Car as part of the solution

While progress in other areas (e.g., buildings) is visible, traffic remains the biggest stumbling block on the road to net‑zero. Private cars dominate, emissions are falling too slowly, and the land consumption for parking spaces is increasing.

Sponti-Car offers a smart, proven alternative:

  • 100 % electric fleet für climate‑neutral mobility
  • No subscription, no fixed costs – you only pay when you drive
  • Station-based carsharing directly in Dörfern and smaller municipalities
  • Close partnerships with municipalities – many locations are created at the request of the municipalities or replace previous offers
  • Inclusive and simple – App, phone, SwissPass or card, personal hotline support

By sharing instead of buying, we reduce not only CO₂ emissions but also the need for second and third cars, parking spaces, and expensive infrastructure. Every kilometre driven with a Sponti-Car directly contributes to the net-zero goal.

Successful examples from practice

In numerous municipalities in eastern Switzerland, in the Toggenburg, in Graubünden and other regions Sponti-Car already demonstrates today that sustainable mobilität in ländlichen areas works. Whether für shopping, a doctor's appointment, a weekend trip or the commute – the residents have flexible access to modern electric cars, without the high costs and effort of owning a vehicle.

Many municipalities deliberately choose Sponti-Car as a local partner because we:

  • Provide regional anchoring and personal support
  • Can seamlessly take over existing offers
  • Transparent and fair rates (often purely hourly-based)

A contribution that every municipality can make

The SRF report makes it clear: We need more concrete measures in the transport sector. Sponti-Car is exactly such a measure – scalable, cost‑efficient and directly implementable.

Would your municipality also like a Sponti-Car? We develop tailor-made solutions for municipalities, developments and companies. Together we can advance the transport sector and make a real contribution to the net-zero goal.
