The Future of Vertical Mobility

Sizing the market for passenger, inspection, and goods services until 2035

The study “The Future of Vertical Mobility” by Porsche Consulting management consultancy provides a thorough and wide-ranging analysis of the feasibility of vertical mobility. It is sizing the market for passenger, inspection, and goods services until 2035

Vertical mobility offers mankind a serious shot at turning the dream of flying into a reality for everyone, and inspection, goods, and passenger services have the potential to become a global market worth $74 billion by 2035. We answer three key questions raised by the new mobility landscape: What is the market potential in 2035? What are basic, conservative, and progressive market scenarios to get there? What are the opportunities for customers, cities, manufacturers, operators, and investors?

$74

billion is the projected 2035 market size 2035 for drones and supporting services.

45%

of the projected market in 2035 is in the Asia Pacific region.
