Electric Two-Wheeler System Market Size, Share & Industry Analysis, By Battery Type (Sealed Lead Acid, Lithium-Ion), By Voltage Type ( 36V, 48V, 60V, 72V), By Vehicle Type (E-Mopeds, E-Motorcycle) And Regional Forecast, 2024-2032

Conventional two-wheelers account for one of the major shares of air pollution globally. Various ruling bodies and governments have imposed stringent emission norms on manufacturers to develop emission free or and alternative to conventional vehicles. In recent years there have been huge adoption of electric two-wheelers. It is considered to be one of the vital modes of transportation especially in developed cities where there is a heavy traffic. These vehicles are lightweight and can be easily maneuverer on crowded streets. Electric two-wheelers can be easily charged through any power outlet, and usually have removable or replaceable batteries, which can be detached from the vehicle and charged indoor. Technological advances in the field of battery management systems are expected to fuel the demand for electric two-wheeler over the forecast period. Various tax benefits offered by the governments and vendors is also another reason that is fuelling the demand for electric two-wheelers. Recently, India announced to put an end to its 150cc ICE two-wheeler manufacturing by 2025.

Market Segmentation:

Globally, the Electric two-wheeler market is segmented by battery type, by voltage type, by vehicle type and by geographic coverage. Based on battery type, the market is further segmented into sealed lead acid and lithium-ion. The lithium-ion segment is expected to dominate the market over the forecast period. Manufacturers are trying to develop electric two-wheelers equipped with advanced lithium-ion batteries. Less battery life, heavy weight and less range of lead acid battery is the prime reason for the dominance of lithium-ion batteries in electric two-wheelers over the forecast period.  By voltage type market is segmented into 36V, 48V, 60V and 72V. As more and more electric motorcycles adopt high-power output, the 48V market segment occupies most of the market share. The ability of 48V batteries to generate ideal power output to compete with traditional ICE two-wheelers will drive market demand. Based on vehicle type market is segmented into e-mopeds and e-motorcycle. In past years, manufacturers were inclined towards producing e-mopeds because their design is more suitable for incorporating electric propulsion systems. Electric mopeds have range and performance limitations; moreover, they are only used for limited purposes for short-distance commuting. With the help of electric motorcycles, users can meet different purposes, such as cruising, racing, off-road and commuting, which will increase their needs in the future.

Key Players:

Major players operating in the global Electric Two-Wheeler System market include Hero Electric, Jiangsu Xinri E-Vehicle Co., Ltd., Energica Motor Company S.p.A, Ampere Vehicles, Silence Urban Ecomobility, Zero Motorcycles, Inc., Vmoto Limited, GOVECS AG, NIU International, and Yadea Group Holdings Ltd among others.

Regional Analysis:

Geographically, the Electric Two-Wheeler System market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and the rest of the world. In China, sales and sales growth, growing demand for affordable electric scooters for short commutes in developing economies, and governments that promote electric two-wheelers are expected to boost the Asia-Pacific market during the forecast period. China’s fast-growing economy is driving the development of advanced technologies to improve the country’s electrification. The Indian government is taking initiatives such as FAME-II to provide subsidies and tax exemptions to buyers to promote electric two-wheelers in the country. The European region accounted for the second largest share of the industry and is expected to maintain its position in the market owing to rising adoption of fuel-efficient vehicles in this region. The Netherlands focuses on green vehicles and is expected to become Europe's largest market by 2022. Due to the increasing focus on carbon emissions of traditional ICE two-wheelers and the efficiency of electric two-wheelers, European authorities have developed a large-scale charging infrastructure network, thereby driving the growth of the electric scooter and motorcycle market.
