Global Opportunity of $9.79 Billion by the End of 2030
Cities are proactively moving away from personal cars to other sustainable modes of transport. Shared electric modes of transport are likely to see an uptake, working in conjunction with traditional transport systems. Car-free cities, access regulations, and zero-emission deadlines will play a major role in shaping the carsharing industry. Carsharing is quite a mature market that has been in existence for many years now.
Operators have to move away from expansion and focus on improving operational efficiencies to become profitable. Demand from niche markets and applications, such as airport carsharing, real-estate-specific carsharing, carsharing for tourists, and luxury carsharing, is growing. Technology such as intelligent fleet management systems and predictive maintenance will aid operators in the move toward becoming profitable. Cities and regions that prioritize sustainable transportation can accelerate carsharing adoption through incentives, such as designated parking, subsidies, or favorable regulations. Carsharing is poised to become a core component of integrated MaaS platforms. This boosts the appeal of carsharing by making it a part of the larger mobility ecosystem in cities.
