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 ARPU refers to the average revenue one user generates per year while the revenue represents the total booking volume. Revenues are generated through both online and offline sales channels and include exclusively B2C revenues and users for the mentioned market. User numbers show only those individuals who have made a reservation, independent of the number of travelers on the booking. Each user is only counted once per year.

The booking volume includes all booked rides made by users from the selected region, regardless of where the ride took place.
