Since their rise in popularity, electric kickscooters have become a key player in urban mobility, offering a convenient and eco-friendly mode of transport. In 2022, global sales of electric kickscooters remained at a strong level, following the rapid increase observed in 2020 and 2021. Although sales have since stabilized, they remain significantly higher than pre-pandemic levels. The largest share of electric kick-scooter sales was recorded in Asia, with China leading as the dominant manufacturer and consumer. In Europe, France and Germany represent the two biggest markets, while in North America, the United States has seen continuous growth in adoption.

Sales growth has been robust over the past years, with 2020, 2021, and 2022 marking exceptional peaks. The reasons for this development are twofold. Firstly, electric kick-scooters offer an efficient solution for urban transportation, addressing the need for flexible and space-saving mobility. Secondly, sustainability concerns and regulatory efforts to reduce emissions have driven demand for electric-powered alternatives to traditional fuel-based vehicles. As cities increasingly invest in micromobility infrastructure, electric kick-scooters continue to gain traction as a preferred mode of transport for short-distance commuting.

However, certain factors may challenge the continued expansion of the electric kickscooters market. Rising disposable incomes, particularly in emerging economies, could lead consumers to shift towards alternative motorized transport options, such as mopeds or compact electric vehicles. Additionally, the development of regulations and urban infrastructure will play a decisive role in shaping the accessibility and adoption of electric kick-scooters in different regions.

The COVID-19 pandemic triggered a surge in demand for electric kickscooters, as consumers sought independent and socially distanced mobility solutions. This trend was especially noticeable in North America and Europe, where urban commuters increasingly turned to micromobility options. Although sales declined slightly after the pandemic peak, they remain at a higher level than before 2020. Looking ahead, we anticipate steady growth in the electric kick-scooter market, driven by urbanization, sustainability trends, and advancements in vehicle technology.

Data coverage:

The data encompasses B2C enterprises. Figures are based on the sales of electric kickscooters and the respective average prices.

Modeling approach:

Market sizes are determined through a Bottom-Up approach, building on specific predefined factors for each market. As a basis for evaluating markets, we use publications of industry associations, expert blogs, and data provided by governments and scientific institutions. In addition, we use relevant key market indicators and data from country-specific associations, such as GDP, population, and consumer spending per capita (based on current prices). This data helps us estimate the market size for each country individually.

Forecasts:

In our forecasts, we apply diverse forecasting techniques. The selection of forecasting techniques is based on the behavior of the relevant market. For example, the ARIMA time series forecast and forecasts based on previous growth rates are well suited for forecasting the future demand for electric kickscooters due to the brick and mortar nature of this market. The main drivers are GDP, consumer spending per capita, and population.

Additional notes:

The data is modeled using current exchange rates. The market is updated once a year. In some cases, the data is updated on an ad hoc basis (e.g., when new, relevant data has been released or significant changes within the market have an impact on the projected development).
