Electric Kick Scooter Market Introduction and Overview
According to SPER Market Research, the Global Electric Kick Scooter Market is estimated to reach USD 18.68 billion by 2034 with a CAGR of 12.16%.
The report includes an in-depth analysis of the Global Electric Kick Scooter Market, including market size and trends, product mix, Applications, and supplier analysis. E-kick scooters have become a popular, cost-effective option for urban commuting due to their compact design and ease of use. Market growth is being driven by rising investment in bike lane infrastructure, particularly in emerging economies, and increasing awareness of eco-friendly transportation. Fluctuating fuel prices and demand for convenient short-distance travel are also contributing factors. Governments worldwide are addressing carbon emissions by introducing policies, incentives, and mandates to promote electric vehicles, especially in developed regions. Additionally, efforts to improve transportation infrastructure are boosting electric vehicle adoption. These initiatives are expected to unlock significant growth opportunities for the e-kick scooter market.
By Battery Type Insights
The lithium-ion battery segment holds the dominant position in the market due to its superior performance and environmental benefits compared to lead-acid batteries. Advancements in battery technology have enhanced storage capacity and reduced costs, making lithium-ion batteries ideal for compact, affordable devices like e-kick scooters. These batteries also offer faster charging, longer lifespan, and better efficiency thanks to digital battery management systems. Their extended discharge cycles, high energy density, and reliable thermal stability contribute to strong market growth. Additionally, concerns over lead contamination in lead-acid batteries during production and disposal have led manufacturers to favor lithium-ion alternatives for electric scooters.
By Drive Type Insights
Hub motors dominate the electric kick scooter market due to their compact size, allowing additional space for components like battery packs. They offer simpler assembly, reduced weight, lower mechanical losses, and minimal maintenance, making them a preferred choice. Meanwhile, belt drives are expected to grow rapidly, driven by their increasing adoption in electric scooters. Rubber timing belts provide faster operation, durability, and low maintenance, prompting key manufacturers to invest in belt drive systems for enhanced performance and user convenience.
By Product Insights
The standard electric kick scooter segment led the market, largely driven by the rise of shared micro-mobility services that offer on-demand rentals. Companies like Lime and Bird have deployed shared scooter fleets in cities worldwide, providing an affordable and convenient transportation alternative. Meanwhile, the folding scooter segment is expected to grow the fastest, supported by increasing urbanization and traffic congestion. Their portability and ease of use make them ideal for city travel and multimodal commuting, boosting their appeal among urban residents.
By End User Insights
The personal segment led the market, driven by strong adoption among both children and adults. This dominance is also supported by manufacturers focusing on enhancing component efficiency through innovations like ultra-high-speed ball bearings, improved materials, and cutting-edge technologies to boost performance and reliability. Meanwhile, the commercial segment is expected to grow at the fastest pace. The rise of ride-sharing platforms has made short-distance travel and local sightseeing more affordable and accessible. Companies like Bird Rides Inc. have seen substantial revenue growth, prompting more manufacturers to invest in shared fleet services, further expanding market opportunities.
Regional Insights
In 2024, North America accounted for a substantial share of the electric kick scooter market, propelled by rising environmental awareness and a growing emphasis on sustainable transportation. Electric scooters provide a zero-emission option that supports urban green initiatives as an alternative to cars and public transit. In the U.S., they gained popularity as a low-cost, low-maintenance option compared to cars and ride-hailing services. Meanwhile, Europe emerged as a highly lucrative region, accounting for a major market share. The region’s growth is fueled by government subsidies and incentives that lower the initial cost of electric scooters, encouraging a shift from conventional to eco-friendly transportation methods.
