52: The Global Shared Scooter Sharing Market - talking with Felix Jakobsen and Enrico Howe from Unu Motors

Ride AI - A podcast by Oliver Bruce and Horace Dediu

Categories:

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
