The electric bikes and scooters market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $39.1 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.6%. Forecasted growth is driven by environmental concerns, economic shifts, global market expansion, competition, infrastructure development, and increasing consumer adoption rates. Major trends include urban mobility solutions, regulatory support, environmental awareness, last-mile connectivity, and customizable consumer preferences.
The electric bikes and scooters market is experiencing growth driven by increasing awareness about pollution. A key factor propelling this trend is the heightened understanding among people about the significance of pollution reduction. This awareness has led to a growing preference for environmentally friendly modes of transportation that help minimize and control pollution. Notably, in the Netherlands, the sales of electric bikes (e-bikes) have surpassed those of non-electric bikes, a shift attributed to the rising awareness of pollution, as highlighted in a survey published by Forbes. The upward trajectory in the adoption of electric bikes and scooters is expected to persist, given the ongoing environmental concerns associated with carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuels, contributing to global warming and climate change.
The electric bike and scooter market are set to benefit from the surge in fuel prices, driving increased consumer interest in these alternatives. Rising fuel prices, encompassing the costs of gasoline and diesel primarily, have prompted consumers to seek more cost-effective modes of transportation. Electric bikes and scooters offer an economical solution compared to traditional gasoline-powered vehicles, resulting in reduced transportation expenses. Illustratively, fuel prices witnessed a significant 19.4% increase from December 2021 to December 2022, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. In the UK, automotive fuel prices soared by 48% from 2021 to 2022, as reported by the Office for National Statistics in September 2022. This surge in fuel prices serves as a catalyst for the continued growth of the electric bike and scooter market.
Insufficient infrastructure for battery charging emerges as a significant constraint in the electric bikes and scooters market. The limited availability of charging stations for bikes or scooters hampers the adoption of electric vehicles, dissuading potential buyers. This challenge is evident in regions such as India, where electric two-wheelers are popular, yet their sales lag behind conventional petrol-powered counterparts due to the inadequate EV infrastructure. In response to this issue, initiatives are being taken to encourage electric vehicle adoption and develop the EV ecosystem. For example, eBikeGo has announced plans to install one lakh smart IoT-enabled charging stations in seven Indian cities, aiming to address the scarcity of charging infrastructure.
An emerging trend in the electric bikes and scooters market is the continuous improvement of battery technology, notably the integration of graphene batteries. This technological advancement involves the utilization of graphene-based electrolytes, enabling faster charging, higher capacity, and reduced vehicle weight. Earthday, a startup based in Barcelona, Spain, exemplifies this trend by actively working on enhancing the efficiency of graphene batteries. The goal is to achieve approximately five minutes of charging time for electric bikes and scooters, showcasing the industry's commitment to advancing battery technology and overcoming charging-related challenges.
Leading companies in the electric bike and scooter market are dedicated to product innovation, exemplified by offerings such as Astroinno, to meet customer demands for reliable services. Astroinno batteries, utilized in electric bikes and scooters, are a type of lithium-manganese-iron-phosphate (LMFP) battery known for high energy density and an extended cycle life. A noteworthy example is Gotion High Tech Co., Ltd., a China-based battery manufacturer, launching the Astroinno battery in May 2023. This electric vehicle battery boasts an impressive range of up to 1000 km on a single charge, marking a milestone in developing nickel-cobalt-manganese (NCM)-free batteries. Featuring internal insulation materials capable of withstanding temperatures up to 1200°C and facilitating 1500 fast charging cycles in 18 minutes, the Astroinno battery sets a high standard in the industry.
In July 2022, the Rohatyn Group, a US-based asset management firm, acquired KJK Capital for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition positions Rohatyn Group to expand its presence in the e-bike market, leveraging the capabilities of KJK Capital, a Europe-based manufacturer of electric bikes. The acquisition aligns with the growing market trends and showcases the commitment of industry players to stay at the forefront of electric mobility.
