Rising disability cases, owing to growing geriatric population, increasing number of road accidents, spinal cord injuries, meningitis, and workplace injuries are the leading factors expected to propel growth of the global personal mobility devices market.

Increasing disability cases is expected to drive the global personal mobility devices market growth. According to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), in 2018, over 53 million people in the U.S. were suffering from some form of disability. According to the data published in the World Health Organization, in November 2021, over 1 billion people globally live with some form of mobility disability. This corresponds to about 15% of the world's population, with up to 190 million (3.8%) people aged 15 years and older having significant difficulties in functioning, often requiring health care services and mobility devices. Similarly, according to the World Population Prospects in 2017, global population aged over 60 years was 962 million, which is expected to reach around 2.1 billion by 2050. Globally, population aged 60 years and above is increasing faster than all younger age groups. This group of population is highly susceptible to different types of age-related diseases such as diabetes, renal insufficiency and arthritis, metabolic change, Parkinson's disease, organ failures, and nervous disorders.

Global Personal Mobility Devices Market– Impact of Coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic

Since the COVID-19 virus outbreak in December 2019, the disease has spread to over 100 countries across the globe and the World Health Organization had declared it a public health emergency on January 30, 2020.

COVID-19 can affect the economy in three main ways: by directly affecting production and demand of drugs, medical devices, nutrition supplements etc. by creating disruptions in distribution channels, and through its financial impact on firms and financial markets. Due to nationwide lockdowns, several countries, such as China, India, Saudi Arabia, U.A.E., Egypt, and others, are facing problems with regards to the transportation of drugs from one place to another.

However, the COVID-19 pandemic had a negative impact on impact on the global personal mobility devices market, owing to the hamper of the production and decrease in the demand for the personal mobility devices. For instance, in July 2020, according to the data published by the National Center for Biotechnology Information, the COVID-19 pandemic has had devastating health and economic consequences, with unprecedented disruption to people's lives, the global economy and world trade. The government of different countries imposed lockdown and restricted the import and export activities to avoid the spread of COVID-19 infection. The key players in the market faced difficulties in the holding access to the raw material for manufacturing the mobility devices. The population was facing the lockdown and serious crisis of COVID 19 pandemic due to which the demand of the mobility devices hampered.

Global Personal Mobility Devices Market: Key Developments

In August 2021, Indian Institute of Technology, central government owned public technical institutes, developed India’s first indigenous motorized wheelchair vehicle that can be used not only on roads but even on uneven terrains. The name of the wheelchair developed by the Indian Institute of Technology is NeoBolt, it has a maximum speed of 25 kmph and travels up to 25 km per charge. It empowers wheelchair users with a convenient, safe and low-cost mode of outdoor mobility. Throughout the development process, the IIT-M researchers collaborated extensively with organizations and hospitals working among people with locomotor disability and built the products factoring in their experiences and making constant design adjustments.

Global Personal Mobility Devices Market: Restraint

The major factors that hinder growth of the global personal mobility devices market include lack of awareness about advanced personal mobility devices and unavailability of service centers. Low access to rehabilitation centers in emerging economies is mainly found due to lack of proper transportation service for the people with disabilities. Moreover, the number of rehabilitation centers is very low in emerging countries, which causes disabled people to travel for long distance to receive appropriate treatment. However, product recall for ocular implants is expected to hinder the global ocular implant market growth. For instance, in October 2018, Drug Controller General of India (DCGI) issued a product recall notice to Allergan India Private Limited for its Ozurdex Intravitreal Implant due to detection of silicone particle in it.
