Global Ride Sharing Market All Set to Boom; Projected to Touch USD 221.76 Billion by 2027, growing at a CAGR of 15.54% during the forecast period (2020 to 2027)
Published | 02 April 2021
A study recently conducted by the strategic consulting and market
research firm BlueWeave Consulting
revealed that the ridesharing market
is projected to reach USD 26.35 Billion by 2027 growing at a CAGR of 15.54% during the forecast period. The
use of mobile apps or websites to provide users or passengers with access to
vehicles or drivers for hire is known as ride-sharing. Ridesharing is beneficial
for the environment and people in general as it involves more than one rider in
the same vehicle. The demand for ride-sharing is growing globally because of
increased mobile and internet penetration. In addition, the rising cost of
vehicle ownership, combined with strict rules and regulations pertaining to the
reduction of carbon dioxide is driving the demand for ride-sharing, globally. Furthermore,
the industry is heavily influenced by the increasing demand for electric
vehicles in ride-sharing services.
Growth Drivers
The Increasing Use of
Smartphone and Internet
Since ride-sharing is an internet-based
service, having access to the internet is a must to use in any part of the
world. Users must download any ride-sharing app to their smartphone and use
data services to navigate the app as well as to access other
relevant information services. According to the International Telecommunication
Union, the internet is used by 81% of developing countries. Also, 40% of people
in developing countries now have internet access, and this figure is
increasingly rising.
The
Increasing cost of vehicle ownership
Due to rising fuel
prices, as well as rising financing, insurance, and car registration costs,
owning a personal vehicle has become prohibitively expensive.In addition to this, maintenance cost is also added
to the cost of vehicle ownership,such as repairs of parts and accessories and
labor charges. Aside from that, stringent rules and regulations pertaining to pollution
control, among other things, make owning a personal car a little more
difficult, allowing customers to use ride-sharing services.
Impact of COVID-19 in the industry
Ride-sharing has been witnessing a major decrease in demand as a result of the
COVID -19 outbreak. Owing to an increase in the number of cases of COVID-19,
commuters are increasingly becoming concerned about using public
transportation, which is negatively affecting the ride-sharing
industry. Furthermore, government and healthcare authorities across the world
have enforced social distancing norms as well as hygiene protocols that require
people to maintain a two-meter distance from other people for safety reasons. These factors have stifled the use of ridesharing
services for day-to-day transportation. Users nowadays prefer to travel in their
cars due to health and safety concerns, which is likely to have a negative impact
on market share. As ride-sharing companies strengthen their sanitization and
safety measures, these issues are likely to diminish.
ICE occupies the largest share of the Global Ride Sharing Market
Based on vehicle type, the global ride sharing market
is segmented into ICE (internal combustion engine), CNG/LPG, electric vehicle,
and micro-mobility vehicle. Out of these, ICE is the dominant segment. Currently,
two types of ICEs are used in production: (i) the spark ignition gasoline
engine and (ii) the compression ignition diesel engine. Most of these are
four-stroke cycle engines, meaning four piston strokes are wanted to complete a
cycle. The automotive ICE segment is expected to grow significantly due to high
vehicle demand during the forecast period. The rising demand for high-capability
engines with reduced carbon emissions is also likely to fuel the sector's
growth.
North America is expected to witness significant growth in the
market during the forecast period
North America dominated the ride-sharing
market in 2020 and is expected to maintain its dominance during the forecast
period. Market dynamics highlight a rising trend among commuters in these
countries to reduce their reliance on fossil fuels for regular transportation
needs. The implementation of strict pollution regulations by the
US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is propelling the regional market
revenue even further. To empower individual commuters to utilize carpooling
services for day-to-day commuting, the EPA provides multiple carpool reward
programs.
The Asia-Pacific is also predicted to expand at a
significant growth rate over the forecast period of 2021 to 2028 due to the
massive demand for ride- sharing services in countries such as India and China.
The rising cost of vehicle ownership, strict CO2 reduction targets, and the
demand for electric vehicles in ride-sharing services have been contributing significantly
to the growth of the ride-sharing market in the APAC region. Also, the growing
demand for cost-effective and alternative mobility solutions is a driving force
in the growth of the ride-sharing industry, which is propelling the target
market's development.
