A moto taxi, also known as a motorcycle taxi or moto-cab, is a type of taxi that can carry a passenger as a pillion with the motorbike rider. Moto-taxi service software can assist the users to rent or hire taxis from their mobile applications. This software sends customer requests to the motorbike owner’s mobile device, and the price depends entirely on the distance travelled, the number and length of drivers available, as well as the demand for driving. Moto taxi services can be hired for short trips and long trips, and are mostly operated in densely populated locations, such as on the entrance & exits of railway stations, airports, outside retail shops, and other such crowded places. The moto taxi services has developed rapidly as they are the most renowned means of traveling in urban cities that are fast, efficient and affordable. In developing countries where the rate of population is increasing and the largest transportation option is served by buses and light rails, which are deficient and unable to serve the last mile, and have a presence of low-income people, therefore the demand for moto taxi services in these countries is increasing as they are easy to hire, and provide door to door connectivity. Additionally, the increase in the investment in moto-taxi service start-ups, increasing parking-related problems, road traffic as well as favourable government initiatives are few of the major factors that are expected to boost the market growth.

Regional Analysis:

Geographically, the Moto Taxi Service market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and the rest of the world. Asia Pacific holds the major share in the global market and is expected to propel further over the forecast period. This dominance is attributed to the rapid growth in the urbanization, high demographic growth, and continuously increasing road traffic which is driving the market growth in this region. Also, the increasing cost of vehicle ownership, and rise in the fuel prices especially in developing countries such as China and India are few of the primary reasons which are expected to help this region continue dominating the global market in the forecast period. Moreover, the lack of public transportation for daily accommodation coupled with the continuously increasing population is also fuelling the market growth. For example, in December 2018, the Indian government permitted taxi licenses for various types of vehicles including two-wheelers. North America is anticipated to hold the second largest share in the global market owing to the rising awareness among individuals regarding the increasing vehicular emissions, traffic problems as well as the rise in the gasoline and diesel prices. Increasing trend of rental bikes and bike sharing are proving to be cost effective for consumers thus creating great opportunities for the moto taxi service market in this region.
