Personal Mobility Devices Market Is Extrapolated To Rise, Due To Increasing Number Of Accidents

Personal Mobility Devices Industry Overview

The global personal mobility devices market size is expected to reach USD 29.8 billion by 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market is expected to expand at a CAGR of 6.3% from 2022 to 2030. The increasing R&D investments for the development of advanced mobility products and government initiatives to support reimbursement policies are some of the key factors boosting the market growth. The rising geriatric population and prevalence of chronic diseases, such as Parkinson’s, arthritis, and Alzheimer’s, are expected to drive the market over the forecast period.

The market is disrupted due to the COVID-19 pandemic during the second quarter of 2020 which affected the shipping and transportation of the devices. The decreasing production of these devices due to the pandemic has severely affected the industry's growth. The prices of wheelchairs and scooters have also been affected due to a decrease in the demand for the product. The market is likely to grow at a lucrative rate after the second half of 2020 as there is the ease of restrictions and an increase in the demand and requirement of the devices.
