How Ride-Hailing Market Is Positioned In Australia?

Australia Ride-Hailing Market Segmentation
By Type of Ride (Sedan or Economy, SUV & Ute, and Luxury): Ride-hailing segment covers cab aggregators and ride-sharing services that primarily use the sedan or economy class of ride. Utes and SUVs are less popular among users and are hailed for company team outings and peer outings over the weekend.
By Hailing Purpose (Airport, Leisure and Office): Airport trip revenue dominated the purposes for ride-sharing in the country as inbound and outbound tourists formed a major revenue source for ride-sharing. The price of an airport ride is higher than leisure and an office ride; hence airport use earned more revenues for cab aggregators in the industry. However, when looked at by a number of trips, leisure and office trips dominated the market.
By State (New South Wales, Victoria, Queensland, Western Australia, and the Other States): Major cities for ride-hailing in Australia included Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, and Perth. Ridesharing was legalized in each state in Australia at a different time period which gave a major boost to the growth of ride-sharing in each state. New South Wales, Victoria, Queensland, and Western Australia were the major states where ride-sharing was popular in Australia due to the high number of small and medium enterprises operating in these states along with the high density of population in these states. Moreover, these states were travel hotspots with international overnight travelers and domestic overnight travelers forming major end-users of ride-sharing.
