Owing to their relative affordability, scooters are a motorcycle type which remains popular amongst biking enthusiasts who value a light, easy-to-ride motorcycle. Scooters vary by aesthetic characteristics, mode of operation, and engine capacity. Nowadays, scooters can be typically found in the engine capacity range of 50cc to as high as 650cc or more. Unlike many other motorcycle types, scooters have a robust bodywork which serves the chief purposes of concealing all the mechanical parts and providing a cleaner look as well as quieter operation.

Ease of use and ample storage space aside, the introduction of electric scooters is an innovation that is driving the adoption of scooters.

With advancements in battery technology and the availability of charging infrastructure, electric scooters have become a viable alternative to traditional scooters.

Additionally, there is a growing trend of scooter-sharing services, where users can rent scooters for short periods, providing a flexible and affordable transportation option.

In Asia, particularly in countries like India and Vietnam, scooters have long been a popular mode of transportation due to their affordability and ability to navigate through congested streets. However, there is a shift towards electric scooters in these markets as well, driven by government initiatives to reduce pollution.

As more people move to cities, the demand for efficient and affordable transportation options like scooters increases. Moreover, the affordability of scooters compared to cars makes them an attractive choice for cost-conscious consumers. Additionally, the growing trend of remote work and flexible schedules has led to a greater need for personal transportation, further boosting the demand for scooters.
