This paper presents a method to assess the sensitivity of a flexible transport model based on agents and simulated using NetLogo. We simulate and we analyse a set of 124 transportation scenarios on several virtual networks and we assess their performance. Our main objective is to detect thresholds in the system scalability and efficiency. The research leads to three main results: (i) using Agent-Based Model, it is possible to significantly improve the global transport efficiency without any general objective function, (ii) there exists an optimal balance between the demand frequency and the number of simulated agents to simulate and perform a good flexible transport, (ii) to some extent, the network topological structure plays a non-negligible role in transport efficiency.
