How is the implementation of public transport services perceived by the public in the context of the sharing economy? What social and economic elements determine their development? The task of this article is to look for answers to questions formulated in this way. A quantitative method was used to conduct the research; the technique that was used was the CASI online survey. Profitability calculations were carried out and compared for three variants of vehicle use: rented, new and used. The deadlines for exceeding the profitability thresholds were set under the assumed preconditions for the analyzed variants. The results that were obtained provided an assessment of the customers’ opinions on the use of elements of the sharing economy in public passenger transport, and enabled the formulation of determinants of the popularization of these solutions as well as a determination of the cost-effectiveness thresholds for practical applications.

Information and communication technologies enable the emergence of a new phenomenon called the “sharing economy”. An increasing number of articles in the media as well as debates about the positive and negative aspects of the sharing economy show a growing interest in the subject. The paper aims to review the different approaches to the definition of the sharing economy and to present the authors’ views on the concept. The reviewed literature reveals the main drivers for participating in the sharing economy. A survey was conducted to learn more about the motives of Lithuanian people participating in this concept. The survey reveals the following leading factors of using the sharing economy platforms: an easy way to make extra money; supporting individuals and/or small/independent companies; meeting new people and having an interesting experience/doing something most people haven’t tried yet. The survey also reveals that most of the respondents prefer to own things rather than share them. Despite the widespread popularity of the sharing economy platforms in the world, this phenomenon is in its infancy in Lithuania.
