E-bike Market Key Profiles, Driver, Outlook & Competitive Landscape To 2026
E-bike, also referred to as, electric bikes,
is a bike that has an integrated electric motor aligned to the pedals of the
bike, which supplies differential force that used for forward movement of the
bicycle to gain momentum. The integrated electric motors in electric bicycles
(or e-bikes) can be used for propulsion. E-bikes use rechargeable batteries,
which can travel up to 25 to 32 km/h, depending on a country’s government
regulation. E-bike makes use of chargeable batteries, which have different
capacities that depend upon their size. The electric bikes majorly uses Li-ion
chargeable batteries, which have a range of maximum 99.4 miles (160 km) in a
single charge. These E-bikes are available with battery type of either 8, 12,
or 18-amp hour batteries. Electric bikes are classified on the basis of the
power of electric motor such as, peddle assist, speed pedelec throttle on
demand and electric moped are the different categories of electric bikes.
Increasing Government Initiatives towards
Adoption of E-bikes and Rapid Urbanization are the Factors Driving Growth for the Global
E-bike Market
The global E-bike market has been witnessing
high opportunities, owing to the government initiatives and strict norms in
favor of electric bikes. For instance, in May 2017, Government of Andhra
Pradesh, Greater Visakhapatnam Municipal Corporation (GVMC), announced launch
of India's first state-run mass electric two-wheeler mobility system.
Furthermore, growing consumer inclination towards use of e-bikes as an
efficient and eco-friendly solution to commute and rising costs of fuel is
driving growth of the global E-bike market during forecast period. Moreover,
growing interest in cycling as a fitness has driven a major shift in
fitness-conscious customers, as riding an E-bike helps to travel longer
distances with a same amount of peddling. Furthermore, cycling is a healthy as
well as low-impact activity having many mental and physical health benefits
such as alleviating stress, enhancing muscle strength, and building endurance.
Furthermore, an increasing urbanization is one
of the key drivers for the global E-bike market. Urban population throughout
the world is increasing at higher pace. According to the United Nations Reports
2018, 68% of the global population would reside in urban areas by year of 2050.
Hyper-urbanization in some countries is hindering the city traffic by
increasing traffic congestion, parking issues, high travel cost and delays in
vehicle movement during traffic jams. Hence, the use of e-bikes can reduce the
number of vehicles on the road and result in fewer traffic jams.
However, the unplanned Infrastructure in
emerging economies and high cost of e-bikes are the factors restraining the
market growth. According to Coherent Market insights, in the Netherlands, a
quarter of all Europeans were found to be willing to commute by E-bikes.
However, speed pedelecs witnessed a decline in sales from 4,561 units in 2017
to 2,735 units in 2018, owing to the infrastructural issue, as they have to
share roadways with cars.
Global E-bike Market: Regional Insights
The Asia Pacific region is estimated to be the
largest electric bike market, as this region comprises some of the fastest
emerging economies of the world such as India and China. The governments of
these emerging economies have recognized growth potential of E-bikes and hence,
governments have taken several initiatives to attract major original equipment
manufacturers (OEMs) to manufacture E-bikes in their domestic markets. For
instance, in December 2018, the Government of India announced financial support
and a scheme called Faster Adoption and Manufacturing of Hybrid and Electric
Vehicles (FAME). Under this scheme, there is a subsidy of up to INR 22,000 (US$
319) for electric scooters or E-bikes. Thus, such government promotions and
schemes have led to an increase in sales of E-bikes during the forecast period.
Asia Pacific region is expected to be the
largest market, in terms of size during the forecast period, owing to high
presence of key players and high purchasing power of consumers. According to
China Bicycle Association (CBA), in 2015, China was one of the world’s largest
manufacturer of electric bicycles and electric vehicles, with sales of up to
80,000,000 units, which accounted for the major revenue share of global E-bike
market turnover. Key players in the global E-bike market are focusing on inorganic
growth strategies, in order to expand their presence in the Asia Pacific E-bike
market. For instance, in October 2016, Giant Bicycle announced partnership with
one of the financial services player ‘Affirm’. Through this partnership, Giant
Bicycle’s shoppers can pay for their bicycle purchases over time with Affirm.
The company has also added online shopping capabilities to its website for
online buyers.
