Easy mobility and maneuverability of cargo bikes are chief factors shaping the demand outlook of the global cargo bikes market. As per a recent market study by ESOMAR-certified consulting firm Future Market Insights (FMI), the cargo bikes market totaled US$ 900 Mn in 2021.

As traffic congestion is increasing across the globe, government authorities in various counties are encouraging the adoption of cargo bikes. Driven by these trends, the market is poised to reach US$ 2,829.5 Mn by 2031, expanding at an impressive 11.6% CAGR between 2021 and 2031.

With the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, sales of cargo bikes were stagnated due to disruptions caused in supply-chain and implementation of restrictions on movement. However, recovery of sales is on cards, considering that the cargo bikes market experienced year-over-year growth of 10.8% from 2020-2021.

Besides this, affordability and new product launches by leading companies in the cargo bike market are attracting sales significantly. These factors are encouraging adoption of cargo bikes in diverse end-use sectors, including courier and parcel services, retail, municipal corporations, and personal transport.

Stringent regulations implemented to curb greenhouse emissions in countries such as the U.S, the U.K., Germany, and China are further boosting sales of cargo bikes. To adhere to these regulations, manufacturers are emphasizing on affordable and convenient three-wheeled and two-wheeled cargo bikes with advanced mobility features to improve sales.

As per FMI\'s regional analysis, Europe will emerge as a highly attractive market with Germany accounting for 37% of the market share through 2031. Increasing adoption of cargo bikes for urban mobility, coupled with expansion of the retail and tourism sectors in the country will drive sales.

\"Expansion of the automotive and logistic sectors is anticipated to boost adoption of cargo bikes in the forthcoming decade. Apart from this, government initiatives creating opportunities for sales of electric vehicles across the globe will strengthen growth prospects for the cargo bikes market,\" says the FMI analyst.
