The micro-mobility market is estimated to grow from USD 3. 4 billion in 2022 to USD 6. 1 billion by 2027 at a CAGR of 12. 5% over the forecast period. The most vital driver for the development of micro-mobility is the rapid urbanization around the world.

New York, Nov. 08, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Reportlinker.com announces the release of the report "Micro-Mobility Market by Type, Propulsion, Ownership, Sharing, Data, Travel Range, Speed and Region - Global Forecast to 2027" - https://www.reportlinker.com/p06361570/?utm_source=GNW
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), approximately 50% of the world’s population lives in urban areas, a proportion that is likely to increase to around 60% by 2025. The increasing number of cars used by a large section of this population has added to road traffic congestion and parking problems in urban areas. This has led to the rapid development of regularized public transport systems. However, with public transportation comes a challenge – last-mile mobility - which would primarily drive the demand for micro-mobility.
The e-bike is expected to register highest growth in micro-mobility market.E-Bikes provide an edge over the traditional bicycles with less effort to be put during the riding and give an easy and smooth riding experience.

The e-bike also offers speed up to 35 kmph which helps to commute the long distances for the user and go to high terrain.However, currently e-bike sharing has various challenges about charging and theft of battery and motor.

The business-to-consumer ownership model is expected to dominate the market during the forecast period due to increase in deployment of number of vehicles and growing trend of short commute distance within cities by using metropolitan transport organizations.The rising urban population and increase in development of smart cities further increase the demand for on-demand public transport.

Micro-mobility implementation is further driven by regulations and an emerging focus on smart city initiatives.
The smart cities include pop-up bike lanes, creating more open space, streets with only electric or low speed vehicles, dedicated lanes for micro-mobility devices are contributing towards the growth of micro-mobility market during the forecast period.As compared to other public transportation solutions, a micro-mobility services network is highly efficient.

Once a network being implemented, a city can reduce the burden on other types of public transportation systems.For instance, in October 2022, Glasgow city installs solar powered warning signs which illuminate a cycle symbol to alert drivers to the presence of cyclists.

Furthermore, in Paris, Action an electric vehicle charging system manufacturers offers docked stations charging system for e-bikes and e-scooters to park and charge in designated areas.In September 2022, emirate’s transport authority signed partnership agreement with Tier to deploy the e-kick scooters and e-bikes to build a safe and sustainable smart city.

The city of Paris is one of the most prominent examples of addressing cluttering and promoting proper scooter parking. The city defined clear goals to ensure that riders do not park on the city’s narrow sidewalks and ensure that riders end their rides in dedicated preferred parking. Paris established 2,500 dedicated parking bays across the city, reallocating public space from cars and two-wheelers to micro-mobility.
Increase in the sale of personal vehicles in the last 10 years has given rise to more traffic congestion and more pollution.The micro-mobility concept supposes that people use the e-kick scooters, e-bike, bicycles, and e-mopeds for the short-term distance for the daily commute as and when required, thus leaving the currently predominant ownership model of vehicles.

Car and bike dedicated infrastructure in urban areas such as roads and parking spaces can be reduced, and more infrastructure can be dedicated to sustainable transport and leisure space for inhabitants.For instance, London Transport Authority has been creating a temporary cycle lanes and other measures which improves the cycling?by more than 25%?without negatively impacting traffic.

Furthermore, City of Minneapolis launched a mobility hub pilot program, where people can conveniently access low or no carbon transportation options including transit, bicycles, shared scooters and electric car-sharing.However, various countries have speed and infrastructure regulations which impacts the growth of micro-mobility market.

Micro-mobility operators use public space to supply their mobility services. Some cities use a commercial model for the use of this space by charging a license fee for usage of the right-of-way and public infrastructure, similar to rent. Cities such as Bogota and Mexico City base regulatory fees on the need to invest in additional infrastructure to accommodate new mobility options. Mexico City licensed dock less bikes and e-bikes and e-kick scooters for use in a limited area of the central-western part of the city. In some cities micro-mobility companies need to pay regulatory fees. High regulatory fees are likely to limit the supply of micro-mobility and reduce socio-economic welfare. Ultimately, it may make micro-mobility businesses unviable.
As urbanization and utilization of public transport grows, micro-mobility solutions will be able to provide a better level of service for their customers, gradually moving users away from privately owned cars and bikes and further reducing traffic volume.These factors further reduce the carbon emissions in urban areas.

With purely zero-emission mobility services, this impact on CO2 emissions would be significantly greater. The micro-mobility allows users to share and rent the e-kick scooters, e-bike, and e-mopeds are climate friendly mobility solutions which relives the traffic congestion and significantly contribute to CO2 reduction.
With rising smart cities, increase in urbanization, and rise in need to reduce the pollution micro-mobility service providers are getting investments from various investors.For instance, TIER (Germany) raised more than USD 467 million since its founding and in November 2020, company generates USD 250 million from SoftBank.

Vogo (India) has raised USD 11.5 million in Series C funding, and it expects to turn a profit by the end of 2022. In February 2022, Beam Mobility Holdings Pte. Ltd. (Singapore) raised USD 93 million in Series B funding led by private equity firm Affirma Capital. In September 2022, Yulu (India), raised USD 85 million in series B funding from Magna (Canada) to enhance the battery swapping business. In September 2021, VanMoof, a Netherlands-based e-bike company, raised a USD 128M Series C funding.
The companies are also focusing on partnership and collaboration agreement with the universities, campuses, and major industrial units.For instance, Veo (US) has been partnered with University of Arkansas, University of Maryland, Rutgers University, and The University of Alabama to offer sustainable mobility within the campus and restrict the campus from vehicle emissions.

In August 2022, Spin (US) partnered with the NC State to advance micro-mobility innovation across campus.
"The e-kick scooter would lead the market due to the better aesthetics and higher comfort."
Increase in demand for emission free vehicles, rising trend of swappable battery technology, rise in number of e-kick scooter sharing service providers, would rise the demand for e-kick scooters during the forecast period.Governments across the globe are taking initiatives for the usage of kick scooters on streets, which are encouraging people to opt for e-kick scooters as a mode of travel.

For example, In Belgium, both e-bikes and scooters are legally allowed on public roads, as long as riders stay under 25 km/h.Riders of e-scooters have to be aged 18 and older, and they’re not allowed on sidewalks.

In February 2021, Irish Minister for Transport Eamon Ryan, legitimate the use of electric kick scooters on public roads of Ireland without requiring tax, insurance, or driving license.Such regulations are supporting the e-kick scooters market and increasing the demand across the globe.

Moreover, higher penetration of e-kick scooters in the US, Canada, and Mexico with the presence of companies such as Lime and Bird are currently driving the demand from the Americas region.

Europe is projected to be the second largest market for micro-mobility
In Europe, developed economies such as the UK, Germany, France, and the Netherlands have been investing in smart transportation infrastructure.The social and trade agreements among European countries have promoted large-scale, cross-border trade and passenger traffic.
