The Global Two Wheeler Market was valued at USD 170.7 billion in 2025 and estimated to grow at a CAGR of 5.9% to reach USD 285.6 billion by 2035.
Market expansion is driven by the rapid rise in electric vehicle producers across multiple regions and the growing global emphasis on cleaner and more sustainable transportation. Environmental awareness and regulatory pressure are accelerating the shift toward electric two-wheelers, which is reshaping personal mobility patterns worldwide. Ongoing technological progress is improving vehicle performance, efficiency, and usability, supporting wider adoption across both developed and developing economies. As global efforts to reduce emissions increase, acceptance of electric mobility solutions is increasing steadily. At the same time, the industry is evolving in response to changing consumer preferences, urban congestion challenges, and advancements in vehicle engineering. Electric motorcycles and scooters are gaining broader acceptance due to supportive policy frameworks and increasing demand for environmentally responsible transportation options, positioning the two-wheeler market as a key contributor to future mobility ecosystems.
The internal combustion engine segment accounted for 70% share in 2025 and is projected to register a CAGR of 5% between 2026 and 2035. In developing economies, ICE two-wheelers continue to attract buyers due to their lower upfront cost compared to electric alternatives. Affordable pricing, broad product availability, and strong distribution networks make these vehicles a practical choice for cost-sensitive consumers. The presence of extensive refueling infrastructure further supports the sustained demand for ICE-powered two-wheelers.
The motorcycles segment held 81% share in 2025 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.9% from 2026 to 2035.
