Growing Urbanization and Regional Economic Growth
Growth of the global ride sharing market is directly coupled with the growing urbanization and regional economic growth. The ongoing expansion of cities into urban clusters together with continued regional economic growth is expected to drive the urbanization rate to 70% in 2030 in China, adding an additional 200 million city residents by 2030, according to CIC. The growing urban population is expected to increase city density, promote consumption, and prefer a new way of urban living supported by on-demand networks. According to CIC, user penetration for shared mobility, defined as average monthly active users as a percentage of total population, among Tier 3 and below cities in China was approximately 7% in the fourth quarter of 2020, compared to 24% in Tier 1 and Tier 2 cities. This represents a massive opportunity for expansion, especially in lower tier cities.

How has COVID-19 had a significant negative impact on the Market?
The COVID-19 epidemic has had a significant impact on the transportation sector as a whole. In 2020, demand for ride-hailing and car-sharing services declined over the world as a result of the COVID-19. The worldwide ridesharing business saw a 21 percent decline in income creation in 2020 compared to 2019, owing in part to the lockout and in part to consumers' reluctance to utilize ride-sharing services even after the requirements were released. Ride-sharing firms are always attempting to maintain driver and passenger confidence in terms of safety and sanitation. Short-term worries regarding car-sharing/e-hailing services are anticipated to be alleviated as customers get more familiar with high hygiene standards. Furthermore, several regulatory regulations, such as vehicle sanitization techniques after each trip, compartmentalization, and other preventative steps, have increased ride sharing firms' per-ride rates.
