Transportation is one of the largest industries in the world (5.8% of Russia's GDP). In the consumer segment, transport ranks second among household expenditures in Russia with a 16% share. The significant changes that have taken place in the transport sector occurred quickly and impressively. Electric scooters and technologies for autonomous cars have become undisputed trends in the industry. Companies such as Bird and Lime in the United States have boosted investment to an estimated USD 2–3 billion in record time (less than 2 years since their inception). Similar services are coming soon in Europe. Several large companies are going to all hold IPOs at the same time. Russian venture capital funds have been investing much more actively in the mobility market than in previous years. In the first half of 2018 alone, roughly RUB 2.4 billion was invested in the transport industry in Russia.
