# **Minds Study: Barriers to Corporate Carsharing in 2026**

How do German fleet managers assess the barriers to introducing corporate carsharing? A data-dense Minds simulation highlights the administrative friction points.

## Methodology

A representative simulation by the Target Audience Simulation Platform Minds shows that 72 percent of German fleet managers view the administrative overhead of self-booking pool vehicles as the main barrier to corporate carsharing. These results were benchmarked against real data from the Statistisches Bundesamt and show a validity of up to 95 percent compared to traditional panels.

**72**%

Administrative overhead as the main barrier

**64**%

Concern over lack of user adoption

**31**%

Readiness for immediate piloting

Based on a simulated panel of 450 respondents. 85–95% accuracy validated against historical data.

## **Frequently asked questions**

### **How reliably does Minds simulate the reactions of fleet managers?**

The Target Audience Simulation Platform Minds achieves an average alignment of 85 to 95 percent with physical panels. For specific questions and precisely anchored segments, the alignment can even reach up to 100 percent, as the models are based on real behavioral data.

### **How quickly does Minds deliver results for complex B2B target audiences?**

Minds delivers deep, data-driven insights in less than an hour. Compared to traditional market research sprints lasting several weeks, this enables extremely fast validation of product and marketing strategies on EU servers that are hosted 100 percent GDPR-compliantly.

### **What are the costs compared to traditional panels?**

Simulations with Minds cost only a fraction of a traditional panel. Since there are no recruitment costs per participant and tedious waves of surveys are eliminated, budgets can be used more efficiently to secure concepts before market launch.

### **How does this simulation help overcome the barriers to self-booking?**

By precisely mapping employee self-booking friction in the B2B decision-making process (BOFU phase), mobility providers can align their software features and value propositions exactly with the administrative pain points of fleet managers, thereby shortening sales cycles.
