COVID-19 Impact on Mobility as a Service Market
COVID-19 negatively severely impacted the Mobility as a Service market. The industry remained the one of the worst-hit due to a number of factors. Firstly, the announcement of nation-wide lockdown across major countries in the globe brought the passenger mobility to standstill, zeroing down the need of mobility services. Secondly, the precautionary measure to maintain social-distancing in order to contain spread of virus forced companies to operate at capacity as low as 30% and it also turned focus of customers towards preferring personal mobility over shared. Business model such as ride sharing saw a significant negative impact due to COVID-19 and is still away from recovery and the number of shared rides continues to stand low. Additionally, the growing culture of ‘work-from-home’ has adversely impacted the demand from the corporate sector which happened to be a key user of shared mobility or mobility as a service.
