Here are some benefits:

- Lower costs in the long-term. In the future it should be cheaper than owning a car.

- Lot of space that is currently being used for parking will be freed up.

- Convenience. It's a better experience than Uber and it will be a better experience than a manually-driven car. One example is when I want to drive to place A, take a 3 hour hike to place B and then drive home.
