Dublin, Feb. 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The “Urban Air Mobility Market Report 2026” has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.
The urban air mobility market is experiencing exponential growth, with projections showing an increase from $5.56 billion in 2025 to $18.56 billion by 2030, at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 27.1%. This growth is largely driven by the commercialization of urban air mobility services and rising investments in electric aviation infrastructure.
The period of significant development is attributed to factors such as advancements in vertical lift aircraft design, early testing of air taxi concepts, and the emergence of drone-based logistics. As urban congestion challenges persist, the demand for rapid urban transport alternatives is increasing, leading to a greater integration of air mobility into smart city planning.
Key trends anticipated in the industry include developments in eVTOL aircraft platforms, expanded use of autonomous air taxi systems, and an enhanced focus on urban air traffic management. With these advancements, the expansion of short-range urban air routes and greater emphasis on passenger safety and flight certification are expected.
The growing urban population is a significant factor propelling this market. Urban air mobility helps improve transportation efficiency by offering fast aerial solutions, addressing congestion in densely populated areas. According to a 2025 report by the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs, 45% of the global population lives in urban areas, with urban growth expected to rise. With urbanization on the rise, the demand for innovative transport solutions will naturally grow.
Market players are making strides towards developing supportive digital infrastructure. An example is ANRA Technologies, which recently introduced its Vertiport Management System (VMS) in November 2023. This versatile online platform addresses the need for efficient management of vertical takeoff and landing air mobility aircraft operations at vertiports.
In an innovative move, Eve Air Mobility has partnered with Flexjet to test its Urban Air Traffic Management solution. This collaboration focused on managing eVTOL operations in low-level airspace, demonstrating effective air traffic coordination during a four-day simulation at Flexjet’s Tactical Control Centre in the UK.
Major industry players include Hyundai Motor Co, The Boeing Company, Airbus SE, and Volocopter GmbH, all advancing the scope of urban air mobility. The largest market currently resides in North America, with Europe expected to experience the fastest growth during the forecast period. The industry spans globally, covering regions such as Asia-Pacific, South East Asia, Western and Eastern Europe, and major countries like the USA, China, and Germany.
As the urban air mobility market continues to expand, it underscores an evolution in urban transport solutions, balancing technological advances with the growing needs of metropolitan populations.
