India Electric Scooter and Motorcycle Market Set to Exhibit Tremendous Growth in Coming Years

-

The World Air Quality Report 2020 states that the annual average particulate matter (PM) 2.5 concentration in India was 51.9 µg/m³ in 2020. According to this report, the highest concentration of PM 2.5 was recorded in Delhi (84.1 µg/m³), in 2020. The report further states that 22 of the top 30 most polluted cities of the world are located in India. The transportation sector is one of the largest emitters of pollutants in the country, as per the report. Furthermore, the World Bank states that 2,434,520 kilotons (kt) of carbon dioxide (CO2) were emitted in India in 2018. 

Thus, the extensive emission of CO2 and PM in the country, primarily on account of the extensive usage of oil and diesel-powered vehicles, will help the Indian electric scooter and motorcycle market to progress at 57.9% CAGR during 2020–2025. The sales of electric scooters and motorcycles are expected to increase from 152.0 thousand in 2019 to 1,080.5 thousand units by 2025. Furthermore, the market is expected to generate $1,043.4 million by 2025. In an attempt to reduce air pollution levels and owing to the implementation of strict emission norms, automakers in India are largely focusing on the production of electric vehicles (EVs).


Nowadays, electric scooters and motorcycles are being largely procured from online retail platforms, due to the rising internet penetration, flourishing e-commerce sector, soaring popularity of electric two-wheelers among millennials, and mounting consumer confidence in India. Besides, the ease and convenience of shopping offered by these sales channels are also encouraging users to shift from physical outlets to such virtual stores. Nowadays, manufacturers of these new energy vehicles are engaging with prospective buyers through online platforms and sharing the leads with their dealer partners, to boost their sales in India. 

According to P&S Intelligence, Uttar Pradesh adopted the highest number of electric scooters and motorcycles in the recent past, due to the increasing focus of EV manufacturers on penetrating the tier 2 and tier 3 cities of the state. Additionally, these electric two-wheelers were widely preferred by end-users, due to the heavy traffic and narrow lanes of these cities, which are not viable for large vehicles. Moreover, the low operating and maintenance costs of electric scooters and motorcycles are also boosting their adoption in the state.

Thus, the escalating air pollution levels and declining Li-ion battery prices will fuel the adoption of electric scooters and bikes in India in the forthcoming years.

In the 1950s, less than 20% of the Chinese people were urban dwellers, and by 2018, this percentage had soared to 59%, as per the World Urbanization Prospects 2018 report of the United Nations (UN). This has led to a massive rise in the number of automobiles on the roads of China, in part, making it the largest carbon emitter in the world. As a result, its government has been strongly encouraging the public to adopt electric vehicles (EV) by implementing stringent emission regulations and offering purchase subsidies and tax rebates. Request to Get the Sample Report: https://www.psmarketresearch.com/market-analysis/china-electric-scooters-and-motorcycles-market/report-sample P&S Intelligence says that the increasing urbanization level, which is expected to touch almost 70% by 2030, will drive the electric bike market in China from $7.7 billion in 2017 to $12.5 billion by 2025, at a 6.1% CAGR during 2018–2025 (forecast period).

 The impact of COVID-19on the logistics industry has been quite negative, as the growth of the industry has slowed down due to the nationwide lockdown in most of the affected countries. Owing to the growth in e-commerce activities, increase in the disposable income of customers, and rapid urbanization in emerging economies, such as India and China, the logistics industry had been growing in recent years. Seeing the rising need for the transportation of goods, many new companies were entering the logistics space before the pandemic arrived. TheCOVID-19 impact analysis on the  logistics industry  reveals that trading activities between nations were discontinued to contain the spread of the virus, which disrupted the supply chain. For instance, the supply chain of China is operational across countries including India, South Korea, Japan, Hong Kong, Singapore, the U.K., Spain, Italy, and Germany, all of which are badly jolted by the pandemic. Apart from China, all t...
