Definition:

The E-Scooter-sharing market comprises e-scooter-sharing services that provide short-term rentals of electric motorized scooters (stand-up scooters). In e-scooter-sharing, scooters are generally owned by an e-scooter-sharing provider and can be reserved independently by customers around the clock. Customers are required to open an account with the e-scooter-sharing provider and can then reserve the vehicles, typically with a smartphone app. Providers normally offer dockless services, so it is possible to find e-scooters everywhere within the provider’s business zone, e.g., on sidewalks, and to leave the scooters anywhere in accordance with traffic regulations. Moped-sharing services are not available in all countries; thus, only a limited number of countries and regions can be selected.

Additional Information:

The main performance indicators of the E-Scooter-sharing market are revenues, average revenue per user (ARPU), user numbers and user penetration rates. Additionally, online and offline sales channel shares display the distribution of online and offline bookings.

The E-Scooter-sharing market in Belgium has been experiencing significant growth in recent years, driven by changing customer preferences and the unique circumstances of the local market.

Customer preferences: Customers in Belgium have shown a growing preference for sustainable and convenient transportation options. E-Scooter-sharing services offer an environmentally friendly alternative to traditional modes of transportation, such as cars or public transport. The ease of use and flexibility of E-Scooter-sharing services also appeal to customers who value convenience and the ability to travel short distances quickly.

Trends in the market: One of the key trends in the E-Scooter-sharing market in Belgium is the increasing competition among different service providers. Several companies have entered the market, offering their own E-Scooter-sharing services to customers. This competition has led to innovations in technology and improved service quality, as companies strive to differentiate themselves and attract customers. Another trend in the market is the expansion of E-Scooter-sharing services to smaller cities and towns in Belgium. Initially, these services were primarily available in major cities like Brussels and Antwerp. However, as the market has grown and customer demand has increased, companies have started to expand their operations to smaller urban areas. This expansion has allowed more customers to access E-Scooter-sharing services and contributed to the overall growth of the market.

Local special circumstances: The E-Scooter-sharing market in Belgium has been influenced by the country's dense urban areas and well-developed transportation infrastructure. Belgium has a high population density, particularly in cities like Brussels, which makes E-Scooter-sharing services a viable and attractive option for customers looking to navigate congested streets and avoid traffic. Additionally, Belgium's extensive network of bike lanes and cycling infrastructure has made it easier for E-Scooter-sharing services to operate and attract customers. The presence of bike lanes provides a safe and convenient environment for E-Scooter riders, further enhancing the appeal of these services.

Underlying macroeconomic factors: The growth of the E-Scooter-sharing market in Belgium is also influenced by underlying macroeconomic factors. Belgium has a strong economy and a high standard of living, which means that customers have the disposable income to spend on convenient and sustainable transportation options like E-Scooter-sharing services. Furthermore, the Belgian government has been supportive of sustainable transportation initiatives, including E-Scooter-sharing services. This support has included the implementation of regulations and policies that promote the use of E-Scooters and ensure their safe operation. The government's support has created a favorable environment for the growth of the E-Scooter-sharing market in Belgium. In conclusion, the E-Scooter-sharing market in Belgium is experiencing growth due to changing customer preferences, the expansion of services to smaller cities, the unique circumstances of the local market, and the support of the government. These factors have contributed to the increasing popularity of E-Scooter-sharing services as a convenient and sustainable transportation option for customers in Belgium.
