Analyst view: “The P2P ride sharing business model is expected to witness high growth due to increased flexibility and ease of carpooling with nearby passengers. Convenient payment options offered by this model will contribute to the growing industry revenue.”
 

Industry challenges include lack of consumer trust and confidence in ride sharing services. Commuters feel uncomfortable while travelling with strangers, especially for long distances. Increasing safety concerns related to ride sharing is estimated to hamper the market growth. The growing number of theft and robbery incidents occurring in carpooling activities is impacting the confidence levels of commuters. However, advanced location detection and driver information provided by carpooling platforms are anticipated to improve the ridesharing market demand.
 

The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic has severely impacted the transportation industry. Stringent nationwide lockdowns enforced by countries across the globe led to shutdown of corporate offices and businesses. Several companies implemented work-from-home policies for the safety of their employees, impacting the revenues of carpooling services in the market. Commuters are highly inclined toward travelling in their own vehicles even post lockdown owing to the risk of infection from other passengers while carpooling. The ride sharing industry is expected to witness steady growth with the reduction in pandemic impacts.
