Malaysia Micromobility Market - P&S Intelligence |
Micromobility services are being increasingly adopted in Malaysia for first- and last-mile commute, owing to their affordable rates and ability to provide greater convenience than conventional mobility services. These services are generally provided via the station-less or dock-less model, which enables customers to drop off their vehicles at any location as per their convenience. For instance, the popularity of bike sharing services has grown considerably in the country in recent years, owing to their ability to provide low-cost transportation.
Additionally, micromobility services are highly affordable, unlike personal vehicle ownership, which usually requires huge investments, owing to fuel costs, maintenance charges, insurance costs, and parking expenses. When availing micromobility services, users can make payments, simply on the basis of their usage, while the mobility service providers manage additional expenses, such as fuel costs, insurance charges, parking costs, and maintenance charges. Thus, the cost-effectiveness and convenience of shared micromobility services are driving the expansion of the Malaysian micromobility market.
