Electric Kick Scooter Global Market Report 2024

The electric kick scooter market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $2.74 billion in 2023 to $3.1 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13.1%. The expansion observed in the historical period can be ascribed to the provision of last-mile transportation solutions, urbanization, emphasis on environmental sustainability, government initiatives and regulations, and the growing consumer demand for technology-enabled mobility.

The electric kick scooter market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $4.86 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.9%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be linked to advancements in design and features, the proliferation of micro-mobility services, ongoing development in infrastructure support, integration with public transportation, and increasing concerns regarding air quality. Key trends expected in the forecast period include the extension of micromobility services, incorporation of smart technologies, improvements in battery technologies, partnerships with ride-hailing services, and a focus on customization and personalization.

The expected upsurge in the popularity of electric vehicles is set to propel the growth of the electric kick scooter market in the future. Electric vehicles (EVs) utilize an electric motor powered by a battery that can be charged externally to facilitate forward movement. Electric kick scooters stand out as a preferred choice among electric scooters due to their safety, practicality, user-friendly nature, and positive environmental impact. For example, in April 2021, the International Energy Agency reported a remarkable global sales increase of over 140% for electric vehicles in the first quarter of 2021 compared to the corresponding period in the previous year. Consequently, the growing popularity of electric vehicles is a key driver for the electric kick scooter market.

The continuous rise in fuel prices is anticipated to drive the growth of the electric kick scooter market in the years to come. Fuel prices refer to the costs at which various types of fuel, including diesel, petrol, natural gas, or other energy sources, are sold to consumers. Elevated gasoline prices create both economic and environmental motivations for individuals to explore alternative modes of transportation, with electric kick scooters emerging as a cost-effective and environmentally responsible choice for short-distance travel in urban areas. For instance, in August 2022, the Bureau of Transportation Statistics reported a 49% increase in conventional motor gasoline prices and a 55% rise in diesel fuel prices between January and June 2022. Thus, the escalating fuel prices serve as a driving factor for the electric kick scooter market.
