Autonomous segment estimated to lead the market during the forecast period

Based on operation, the urban air mobility market has been segmented into piloted and autonomous. The autonomous segment is estimated to lead the market during the forecast period, as autonomous eVTOLs are better suited for passenger and cargo transportation and are expected to be increasingly used for intercity transportation. These autonomous eVTOLs can operate in urban areas as they are equipped with high-quality sensors and proven technology for human-free operations. Presently, the market for fully-autonomous aerial vehicles is smaller than that of the piloted aerial vehicles. However, the autonomous segment is projected to grow at a higher rate during the forecast period.

Europe to be the fastest-growing market for urban air mobility during the forecast period
