Growing Demand in the Utilization OF Environment Friendly Passenger Vehicles is Anticipated to be a Major Driving Factor or the Growth of this Market

The increasing emphasis on the utilization of fuel-efficient vehicles is aiding the growth of this market.  The conventional fuels on which the vehicles operate such as gasoline and diesel emit harmful gas such as NO2, sulphur dioxide, carbon monoxide, and others and pollute the environment. These gases are harmful for not only the environment as they deplete the ozone layer, but also adversely affect the human health. These factors are expected to aid in the utilization of electric scooters in the two wheelers category and aid the growth of the market in the forecast period. As per the Bloomberg, "Electric Vehicle Outlook" 2021, an annual long-term publication looking at how electrification, shared mobility, and autonomous driving will impact road transport, there are over 260 million electric two and three wheelers in the world today, this shows the increasing acceptability of electric vehicles globally, representing the market growth. These factors are anticipated to aid the growth of electric scooter market share in the forecast period.

The Capital-intensive Nature of Electric Scooter Technology to Restrain the Market Growth.

The lack of public charging infrastructure required in the effective operations of electric scooters for the convenience of charging the vehicle anywhere and anytime is expected to hamper the growth of electric scooter market demand market in the forecast period.  Unlike developed countries, the undeveloped countries such as African nation and emerging countries such as India, Indonesia, and others lack the necessary charging infrastructure. These factors are expected to hamper the demand of global electric scooter market.

The Increasing Adoption of Artificial Intelligence is Expected to Create Opportunities for Electric Scooter Market

Government support programs and financial incentives have been provided to promote electric vehicles which is expected to open new scope of opportunities for this market in the forecast period. In addition, fossil fuel depletion is a crucial problem that might be solved by creating a self-sufficient electric vehicle sector. In many countries where electric two wheelers are popular, new incentive systems for scooters are being developed. For example, in February 2021, the Government of India announced plans to support the electric vehicles through Faster Adoption and Manufacturing of Electric Vehicles scheme (FAME). The government is subsidizing buyers through the Electric Vehicle Accelerated Introductory Manufacturing (FAME) program, which invests a total of Rs 100 billion in the market. The increasing trend in electric scooters in India is an example of government and corporate efforts. These are the positive electric scooter market trends that are expected to act as facilitators during the electric scooter market forecast period.
