Key Growth Drivers

This will further prompt the expansion of the market over the forthcoming years. Moreover, shared micromobility, which is defined as shared e-bikes and e-scooters, is anticipated to transform the growth of the automotive sector in the U.S., China, and Europe.
Furthermore, shared micromobility is predicted to offer huge growth prospects to the transportation sector in cities and urban areas due to its ability to address critical transport issues of the urban populace.
