This indicates a substantial contraction in the market over the coming years.
Future trends to watch for include the potential impact of emerging sustainable mobility solutions and regulatory shifts towards electric vehicles, which might alter market dynamics. Additionally, the broader economic outlook and consumer confidence will significantly influence these projections.
