BOULDER, Colo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--A new report from Guidehouse Insights examines the global market for seated e-scooters, providing market forecasts for annual seated e-scooter unit sales, revenue, and average transaction prices, through 2030.

The global market for seated e-scooters is expected to experience considerable growth over the coming decade as consumers and governments continue to prioritize the adoption of low carbon, physically distanced, and congestion-reducing technologies. Click to tweet: According to a new report from @WeAreGHInsights, the global market for seated e-scooter unit sales is expected to grow from 5.7 million in 2020 to 10.1 million by 2030, at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.9%.

“Advancements in motor and Lithium ion (Li-ion) battery technologies are helping to bolster the market through improved seated e‑scooter range, speed, and power capabilities,” says Ryan Citron, senior research analyst with Guidehouse Insights. “The growth in seated e-scooter sharing programs has also contributed to an expanding global market.”

Although China currently dominates the market, accounting for 86% of seated e-scooter unit sales in 2020, this figure is expected to decrease to 56% by 2030 as sales in other countries grow far more quickly.
