The Q1 2025 Mobility SektorReport elaborates on the latest market dynamics and M&A developments in urban mobility—particularly in the fast-growing segments of corporate bike leasing, car sharing and related services. While the traditional automotive and supplier industries still face lingering recessionary pressures and intermittent shocks, emerging socio-economic models such as the “15-minute city” and “last-mile” concepts are accelerating demand for agile, shared-mobility solutions.
 
Across German cities, mobility-as-a-service, micromobility and shared-mobility are increasingly visible. Market leaders like JobRad, Lime and Miles deliver end-to-end solutions that enable both corporations and private customers to navigate urban environments more efficiently. Forecasts suggest substantial additional upside for innovative mobility concepts—a trend that has not gone unnoticed by private equity and strategic investors.
In this issue’s Deal Report, we spotlight the add-on acquisition of Austria’s LeaseMyBike—one of the country’s leading (e-)bike-leasing platforms—by Green Mobility Holding, a growing mobility platform backed by Rivean Capital.
 
Yet a broader lens on the automotive and mobility sector still reveals headwinds: U.S. tariff policies weighed on Q1 performance, and while listed German automotive suppliers have shown modest share-price gains, overall sentiment remains cautious.
