DataM Intelligence has published its latest report, “Vehicle Subscription Market Size, Share, Industry Forecast & Outlook (2024-2031),” spotlighting the rising trend of access-over-ownership in mobility. From a base of about USD 3.2 billion in 2022, the market is expected to grow at a robust CAGR of around 24.2%, reaching an estimated USD 18.2 billion by 2030. Key forces propelling this expansion include the increasing cost of vehicle ownership, consumer desire for flexibility, and growing deployment of electric vehicles under subscription models. As mobility models evolve, subscription offerings by OEMs and third-party providers are becoming more diversified in terms of type, service period, and vehicle category.

Market Segmentation Insights

The vehicle subscription market is segmented by type (single-brand vs multi-brand), service provider (OEM/captives vs third-party providers), subscription period (short-term to long-term), vehicle type (internal combustion, electric, others), and region. Single-brand subscriptions currently dominate due to stronger OEM control over quality and cost, but multi-brand models are growing as consumers seek more flexibility. OEM and captive providers still hold a large share, but third-party subscriptions are increasing rapidly. Shorter subscription periods (1-6 months, 6-12 months) are popular among urban consumers, while longer-duration subscriptions appeal to business or fleet customers. Electric vehicle types are gaining ground, especially in regions pushing EV adoption.

Regional Insights

North America remains the largest market in terms of value, driven by mature subscription programs, rising vehicle emission and ownership costs, and higher consumer income levels. Asia-Pacific is the fastest-growing region, where subscription models are benefiting from urbanization, limited vehicle ownership due to cost or regulation, and increasing acceptance of shared or flexible usage options. Europe is also a strong market, especially in metropolitan areas where regulatory pressure, sustainability goals, and public policy favor alternative vehicle ownership models. Other regions including Latin America and the Middle East & Africa are emerging, often driven by urban consumers and evolving mobility infrastructure.

Industry Trends & Recent Developments (2025)

  • In 2025, the global vehicle subscription market is estimated to reach approximately USD 6.61 billion, reflecting sustained demand and accelerating growth.

  • There is growing uptake of electric vehicle (EV) subscriptions, as both providers and customers view EVs as increasingly viable within subscription models, aided by environmental incentives and expanding charging infrastructure.

  • OEMs and third-party providers are expanding their subscription service offerings: more flexible subscription periods, multi-brand choices, and bundled services (insurance, maintenance) are being introduced to attract wider consumer segments.

  • The integration of digital technology is increasing, with apps, telematics, and predictive maintenance features becoming key differentiators among subscription service providers. Consumer expectations for convenience, minimal commitment, and total cost transparency are driving product simplification and service enhancements.

Competitive Landscape: Key Players

Major global players are shaping the vehicle subscription market through aggressive expansion and service diversification. Companies such as Sixt, Avis Budget Group, Lyft, Arval BNP Paribas, The Hertz Corporation, ORIX Auto, Volvo Car Corporation, ALD Automotive, Carvolution, and Mercedes-Benz are among the established names offering subscription services. These firms are differentiating via vehicle types (adding more EVs), flexibility of subscription duration, bundled services, and user experience. Meanwhile, new entrants and mobility startups are leveraging technology and innovative pricing to capture market share, particularly in regions where traditional vehicle ownership is becoming less feasible or less appealing.

Strategic Outlook

Looking ahead to 2031, the vehicle subscription market is expected to continue its rapid growth. Providers who can offer flexible terms, include maintenance and insurance in all-inclusive pricing, keep fleet variety high (especially EVs), ensure easy digital access and seamless service, and respond to regional cost sensitivities will have an edge. Regulatory frameworks favoring sustainable mobility and changing consumer expectations around ownership will further fuel expansion. Fleet subscription models for commercial and business customers are also emerging as a valuable growth segment.
