Abstract: In response to the rapid growth of online commerce, significantly accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic, the MOBS (Mobilities of E-Shopping) project aims to analyse how digital purchasing practices influence travel behaviour and household mobility in France. While the substitution hypothesis—that e-commerce replaces physical travel—is a central assumption in digital impact studies, the research reveals more complex interactions between online shopping and mobility practices, ranging from substitution to complementarity. The report is based on a nationwide survey conducted between 2023 and 2024, involving over 5,000 households. It pursues a dual objective: first, to understand the relationships between online shopping behaviours and associated mobility (frequency, transport modes, distances, etc.); and second, to assess the environmental footprint of these new forms of mobility created by e-commerce and decoupled households purchases. The survey covers a broad spectrum of online purchases (B2C and C2C; home delivery, collection from pick-up points, lockers, other intermediate points, or shops) and is designed to be representative of the metropolitan French population in both geographic and socio-demographic terms.
