This predicted growth during the forecast period can be linked to a series of factors including innovative pricing strategies, personalised services along with customer loyalty schemes, objectives related to minimising climate change effects, a commitment to comprehensive accessibility, and the advent of fresh business models rooted in data-driven decision-making. The projected period will witness essential trends such as the proliferation of micro-mobility services, a fusion of various mobility modes, the adoption of contactless payments and digital wallets, synchronization with public transportation, and breakthroughs in accessibility.
The B2C mobility sharing market is experiencing growth generated by the ascendancy of connected vehicles. These are motor vehicles enabled with internet access and a local area network that encourages communication with other cars to improve the user experience through real-time interaction. These vehicles can also sync with smartphones to relay their performance. Within B2C mobility sharing, these connected vehicles provide constant data transmission and reception to enhance security, provide live vehicle tracing, and facilitate fleet management, providing a smooth service for both drivers and fleet owners. The Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT), a UK-based trade association, reported in February 2024 that Britain celebrated the integration of its one-millionth battery-electric connected car (BEV) on the roads, aligning with a noticeable 8.2% growth in the new car market during January 2024. There were 20,935 BEV registrations in January 2024, representing a substantial 21.0% surge compared to the preceding year. Thus, the increased penetration of connected vehicles and smartphones is propelling the growth of the B2C mobility sharing market.
