 Growing Adoption and Market Shifts Fueled by Safety Regulations and Innovation

A defining moment for the industry emerged in February 2025, when the New South Wales (NSW) Government implemented mandatory safety certifications for hoverboards, e-skateboards, and e-scooters. SGS, accredited under AS/NZS ISO/IEC 17065, was officially authorized to certify hoverboards using global safety standards including UL 2272 and AS/NZS 60335.2.114. This development heightened global awareness regarding product reliability and reinforced the industry’s shift toward safer mobility solutions.

As governments tighten regulations, both established companies and new entrants are investing heavily in product testing, battery safety, gyroscopic stabilization systems, and smart connectivity features. This environment has paved the way for new-age manufacturers to introduce technology-driven, app-connected, and terrain-flexible hoverboards.

Market Leadership and Rising Competitors

Tier-1 companies such as Ninebot Inc., Segway Inc., and Razor USA LLC continue to dominate through advanced engineering, strong supply chains, and global brand recognition. Meanwhile, Tier-2 and Tier-3 manufacturers—including Hangzhou Chic Intelligent Technology Co. Ltd., IPS Electric Unicycle Co., RioRand Advanced Technology, Sky Walkers USA, and several emerging Asian brands—are scaling rapidly by offering affordable and customized hoverboards tailored to cost-sensitive markets.

Recent launches, such as Gyroor’s 2023 electric hoverboard lineup featuring long-distance capability and enhanced obstacle navigation, signal the emergence of a highly innovative competitive landscape. The influx of new manufacturers is expected to intensify market fragmentation while accelerating technological progress.
