Market Overview
In 2023, the bike-sharing market reached a value of USD 7,390.2 million and is anticipated to achieve a CAGR of 10.6% from 2024 to 2030. This growth is expected to lead the market to a value of USD 14,915.0 million by 2030. This growth of the market can be credited to the increasing count of service providers, growth in technologies, and the growing need for bike-sharing services.
Additionally, the growing number of MaaS providers and bike-sharing companies' alliances fuels market growth too. As a result of these partnerships, a lot of companies are witnessing increasing ridership and revenue, in most cases, the two help in speed and comfort improvement over short distances. For example, TVS Motor Company has acquired a 75 % stake in SEMG (Swiss E-Mobility Group), thus it will buy the other 25 % later in the coming year.
Technological innovation has flourished the bike-sharing experience through the introduction of GPS, smartphones, AI, and IoT by the providers. For example, a good e-scooter model would have IoT devices to automatically unlock and track them. This was the first step on the road towards implementing a dockless bike-sharing system in the sector.
