The Manhattan mobility model is a guide which leads the driver of a vehicle on the correct path.
It is an urban type of mobility model for vehicular ad-hoc networks (VANET).
The Manhattan mobility model uses a "grid road topology.
It works optimally where streets are in an organized manner.
The Manhattan model employs a probabilistic approach in the selection of nodes movements since, at each intersection, a vehicle chooses to keep moving in the same direction.
