On-demand transportation services and a lower rate of car ownership among millennials are driving the growth of the ride-hailing market. On-demand transportation services are characterized by flexible routing and ad-hoc scheduling of private vehicles, offering a personal transport experience to the general public by picking up or dropping off at locations of the passenger’s choice. On-demand ride-hailing services ensure that customers can accurately locate the vehicles, track their journey, and offer safety to the occupants, and this factor is expected to significantly drive the market's growth. Additionally, a lower rate of car ownership among millennials due to the high maintenance cost of personal cars is resulting in a rise in demand for ride-hailing services. Millennials are choosing practical, smartphone-accessible transport options that are simple, flexible, and inexpensive over car ownership. Also, buying a new car and maintaining it are more expensive than renting a vehicle every year. For instance, in February 2024, according to the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, a US-based part of the Department of Transportation (DOT), for-hire freight shipments rose by 1.8% in December 2023 compared to December 2022, while the Freight Transportation Services Index increased from 136.6 in December 2022 to 139.1 in December 2023.
