Accordingly, the companies are investing in procuring these electric two wheelers and are entering strategic agreements with these vehicles manufacturing companies to gain notable edge over other competitors in the market. For instance, In May 2022, Motoboy Delivery Services (Motoboy), the UAE's first and only RTA-approved sustainable electric bike logistics solutions provider, has launched its innovative services across Dubai. Currently with a fleet of over 35 electric and traditional vehicles, Motoboy aims to achieve zero carbon emissions in the long run, aligning its business model with the Dubai Clean Energy Strategy.
Several Electric vehicle makers are also seeing traction in selling to e-commerce players, last-mile delivery providers and third-party logistics companies in a step to widen market access for green energy products in wake of supportive government measures. For instance, In January 2021, Dubai's Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) introduced a set of standards for the licensing of delivery services, in line with the steady growth of the industry. Thus, above mentioned developments and instances anticipated to enhance overall growth of the market during the forecast period.
Pedal - Assisted Segment of the E-Bike Market to Witness Significant Growth
