The hub motor market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $12.61 billion in 2023 to $13.34 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.8%. The growth observed in the historic period can be attributed to several factors, increasing demand for electric vehicles, government subsidies and incentives promoting their adoption, rising environmental awareness among consumers, ongoing urbanization trends, and a growing preference for eco-friendly transportation solutions.
The hub motor market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $16.77 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.9%. The forecasted growth can be attributed to several factors, the adoption of smart transportation solutions, supportive regulatory frameworks for electric vehicles, advancements in fast-charging infrastructure, a growing emphasis on sustainable mobility practices, and increasing disposable incomes among consumers. Key trends expected in this period include a movement towards shared mobility services, the development of compact electric vehicle models, improvements in energy efficiency, increased options for customization and personalization, and the integration of mobility solutions with digital technologies.
The hub motor market is poised for growth driven by the increasing demand for electric vehicles (EVs). Electric vehicles utilize rechargeable batteries instead of internal combustion engines, supported by technological advancements, government incentives, environmental awareness, and advancements in battery technology. Hub motors play a crucial role in the adoption of electric vehicles by enabling efficient integration of electric propulsion systems, enhancing performance and range, and reducing space and weight requirements. For example, the International Energy Agency reported a global registration of nearly 14 million new electric cars in 2023, bringing the total number of EVs on the roads to 40 million. This growth reflects a 35% year-on-year increase, with electric cars accounting for approximately 18% of all vehicles sold in 2023, up from 14% in 2022. This surge in electric vehicle demand is driving growth in the hub motor market.
Leading companies in the hub motor market are innovating with products such as electric bicycle (e-bike) hub motor systems, which enhance performance across various terrains with efficiency and advanced features. E-bike hub motor systems integrate propulsion units within the bicycle hub, providing electric assistance to pedal-powered bicycles. For instance, in June 2024, MAHLE SmartBike Systems launched the MAHLE X30 drive system, featuring a powerful 45 Nm torque hub motor weighing only 1.9 kg. This system offers up to 190 km of range on a single charge, enhanced efficiency, and seamless integration with MAHLE's digital ecosystem and adaptive AI-driven assistance. These features make it a competitive choice for e-bike manufacturers seeking high-performance, customizable solutions in the hub motor market.
