The global personal mobility devices market size is expected to reach USD 18.2 billion by 2028 registering a CAGR of 5.8%

Growing R&D investments for new product development and government initiatives aimed at strengthening reimbursement frameworks are some of the key factors propelling the market growth.

Furthermore, the rising number of surgical procedures, due to growing cases of neurological & cardiovascular disorders and an increasing number of accidents and trauma cases, is contributing towards the market growth. Europe was the most matured regional market in 2020 and accounted for the largest revenue share of over 33%.

The regional market will retain its leading position throughout the forecast years. Sophisticated healthcare infrastructure and growing healthcare expenditure are some of the factors contributing to its large share. Asia Pacific is expected to register the fastest CAGR during the forecast period due to the rising demand for personal mobility devices as a result of the growing geriatric population and increasing disposable income & awareness levels.

However, decreased production of these devices due to the Covid-19 pandemic has severely affected the industry growth. The prices of wheelchairs and scooters have also dropped extremely.
