Emerging Trends in UK Micromobility and Insurance Coverage Unveiled


Dublin, May 09, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Micromobility in Insurance" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

This report examines the growth of micromobility in the UK and Europe. It looks at the types of micromobility vehicle, the services that are offered within the shared and micromobility space, as well as key regulations in major economies around the theme. It then takes a UK focus on insurance implications for owners, users, and renters of micromobility vehicles and finishes with some analysis of key players within the sector.

Shared mobility services are growing in popularity across most major cities (although not without some degree of contention). Rental e-bikes and e-scooters are common sights across most capitals in Europe as younger consumers make use of these cheap and accessible vehicles. The rapid growth of micromobility across the UK and Europe has created a huge number of opportunities to insurers.

Scope

  • The analyst's 2023 UK Insurance Consumer Survey indicates that 40.5% of UK consumers own a bicycle. For consumers under the age of 40 and living in London, this figure rises to 45.8%.
  • Shared mobility is a hugely popular transport method: there were over 11 million rides on Santander Cycles in London in 2022. In January 2024, Transport for London announced it will be increasing its number of e-bikes from 600 to 2,000 to keep up with growing demand for the service.
  • Embedded insurance is a major distribution opportunity in the micromobility space. 21.6% of UK e-scooter policies were sold at the point of sale of the e-scooter, with the majority of these done online.
