The U.S. group 2 powered mobility devices market was surpassed at USD 2.64 billion in 2022 and is expected to hit around USD 8.24 billion by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 12.06% from 2023 to 2032.
Key Pointers
There was a fall in the U.S. group 2 powered mobility devices market in 2020 due to the COVID-19 outbreak. However, the increasing geriatric population and rising acceptance of powered mobility devices for various outdoor activities are anticipated to provide a boost to the market. The pandemic has negatively impacted the mobility devices market. COVID-19 had a significant impact on the medical industry in terms of conducting medical procedures and therapy. The pandemic also contributed to a shipping and logistics crisis in the country. The shortage in the availability of logistics and shipping services caused delays in providing products and services to customers.
In the U.S., it is estimated that around 2.7 million people use wheelchairs for their day-to-day mobility needs. Spiraling demand from organizations such as the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs and advancements in powered mobility devices are poised to augment the market. Supportive government initiatives are helping in streamlining overall reimbursement procedures based on patients’ medical criteria. This may aid in an increasing number of customers covered under the group 2 categories, which is expected to propel the market.
Surging demand for these devices among long-term and home care patients and increasing incidences of rheumatoid arthritis & osteoporosis are also expected to drive the market during the forecast period. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, in 2019, there were more than 54.1 million people above 65 years of age in the U.S., which accounted for 15.0% of the total population. Demand for powered mobility devices is growing due to the rising geriatric population.
Elderly individuals with limited mobility prefer battery-operated wheelchairs or scooters over manual vehicles as the former gives them the freedom to move independently, without any external support. Acceptance of mobility devices among patients and physicians is on the rise as they have proved to be exceptional in improving quality of life. Thus, due to the increasing awareness and rising acceptance, demand for battery-operated vehicles is poised to increase in the U.S.
