In today’s episode, Felix Jakobsen and Enrico Howe from Unu Motors join Oliver to talk about the Global Scooter Sharing Market Report (for clarity, we’re talking mopeds), a recent publication on the state of the shared moped market globally. It’s a great discussion about the expansion of a space that often gets overlooked compared to it’s more well funded kick scooter cousin.
Specifically, we dig into:
* The history of Unu Motors, and how they came to be tracking the shared moped market.
* The crazy + 164% in moped numbers over the last year, where that growth has taken place, and where they see it coming from in the future.
* The Indian micromobility market, and why it’s uniquely different compared to other markets.
* The KPI’s that they track (fleet utilisation, usage duration, fleet availability)
* How they see business models evolving, and what are the adjacent verticals that could potentially get into this space
* The regulatory approaches that they see around the world, and what that implies for users, operators and regulators.
* The funding environment and why they think there is still far more capital to be deployed in this space
* Why this sector is more capital efficient than other micromobility sectors
