Canada E-Hailing Market Overview & Scope

The Canada E-Hailing Market is segmented by:

Smartphone is the most dominant market, driven by e-hailing service booking through apps, which is the most convenient way and can be done easily. Tablets are also used, but more particularly by corporates. Others' adoption is limited.
• Vehicle Type: Two-wheeler, three-wheeler, and four-wheeler are major types of vehicles used for e-hailing services, which affect cost, comfort, and capacity.
• End User: The market is segmented into personal and corporate as end-users. Personal users are individual users booking rides for daily commuting, social visits, or personal travel. Corporations use rides for employees, clients, or corporate events. The personal segment and corporate segment both have significant demand.
• City: The market is segmented into Ontario, Quebec, British Columbia, and Alberta, with these provinces representing the largest demand centers. Ontario, led by cities such as Toronto and Ottawa, is the most significant market due to its high population density and urbanization, and corporate demand.
