Electric kick scooter, or e-kick scooter, refers to a lightweight, stand-up motorized scooter, which is powered by integrated motor drive machines and rechargeable batteries. As compared to conventional scooters, electric scooters do not require gas or fuel to operate and are flexible, cost-effective, portable, versatile, durable, and eco-friendly. Apart from this, they are commercially available in different compact sizes, on account of which it is extensively used by consumers as micro-mobility for covering short distances at higher speeds. At present, electric kick scooters are commercially available in sealed lead-acid (SLA), nickel-metal hydride (NiMH), and lithium-ion (Li-Ion) battery types.
Electric Kick Scooter Market Trends:
The electric kick scooter market is primarily being driven by the growing manufacturing activities across the automotive sector due to the increasing demand for cost-effective and eco-friendly urban commute options, especially in emerging economies. In line with this, the rising concerns amongst consumers regarding the conventional automobile-generated emissions from oil and gas fuels have prompted governments of various countries to promote the uptake of electric kick scooters for short-distance travels. This, in turn, assists in minimizing various negative environmental impacts, including the harmful emissions of greenhouse gases (GHGs). Additionally, the shifting inclination of manufacturers toward lithium-Ion (Li-Ion) batteries over sealed batteries for manufacturing electric kick scooters due to their several beneficial properties is contributing to the market growth. Li-Ion batteries offer higher energy density, better voltage capacity and stability, longer charge retention, and lower self-discharge rate. Other factors, such as strategic collaborations amongst key players and the rising investments in the research and development (R&D) activities for introducing low-maintenance e-scooters, are creating a positive outlook for the market.
