Electric Bicycle Batteries Market, by Battery (Lithium Ion Battery, Lead-acid Battery), Application (City/Urban, Trekking, Cargo), End-User (Automobile): Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2020–2027

The global electric bicycle batteries market is estimated to grow in the forecasted period due to rising customer demand for e-bikes as an environmentally friendly and effective transportation option. Electric bicycles are the world's highest selling electric vehicles; they are expected to reach 36 million by 2027.

Electric Bicycle Batteries Market, Analysis:

The word 'e-bike' applies to bicycles that have compact and rechargeable electric motor batteries to support the cyclist's power source. The market growth is further driven by rapid economic development, increasing urbanization, increased tourist operation, and high fuel costs.

Growing traffic congestion is expected to drive the global electric bicycle batteries market

The new road network is proving to be insufficient with the growing numbers of vehicles per day. According to the World Health Organization, about 1.35 million people die per year due to road traffic accidents. In fact, traffic congestion around the globe has seen a substantial increase. Using e-bikes will reduce the number of cars on the road as they require less road space, resulting in lesser traffic delays.  Hence, to reduce traffic congestion, the growing adoption of riding e-bikes will result in the growth of the global electric bicycle batteries market.

Technological drawbacks are anticipated to restrain the growth of the global electric bicycle batteries market

There are still some technical difficulties and discrepancies with current e-bikes that might hamper the market growth. Maintenance of batteries is a major concern for e-bikes. Electric bike batteries such as lithium-ion batteries have a short lifespan for about 2-3 years. This raises the need for battery replacements, as well as chains and sprockets replacements due to extensive e-bike usage. Thus, the technological drawbacks of e-bicycle batteries are estimated to restrain the market growth.

Government initiatives are anticipated to create enormous opportunities for the global electric bicycle batteries market

Growing awareness and government policies to promote the usage of battery-operated automobiles contribute to rising market acceptance of environmentally sustainable automobiles. For instance, FAME-India scheme in India and grants offered by Officers for Low Emissions in the UK for EVs acquisition are some of the government initiatives focused on promoting e-bikes. These government initiatives are foreseen to act as an opportunity for the global electric bicycle batteries market in the forecasted period.

Electric Bicycle Batteries Market, by Battery:

Lead-acid battery segment will be most lucrative till 2027

By battery, the global electric bicycle batteries market is divided into lithium ion battery and lead-acid battery. Out of these, the lead-acid battery segment is expected to lead the market due to its low cost, durability, and maintenance features.

Electric Bicycle Batteries Market, by Applications:

Trekking segment is estimated to dominate the market till 2027

By applications, the global electric bicycle batteries market is classified into city/urban, trekking, and cargo. Amongst these, trekking e-bikes such as mountain e-bikes are expected to dominate the market during the predicted period as they are quick and simple, reliable, easy-to-control strength, and a compact long-lasting battery that recharges fast.

Electric Bicycle Batteries Market, by End-User:

Automobile industry is estimated to be the highest growing till 2027

By end-users, the global electric bicycle batteries market operates in the automobile industry. The automotive industry is further bifurcated into the heavy commercial vehicle (HCV), light commercial vehicle (LCV), electric vehicle type, hybrid electric vehicle (HEV), fuel cell electric vehicle (FCEV), battery electric vehicle (BEV), and others. Owing to the growing concerns for a healthier climate, various governments are taking compulsory measures to promote e-vehicles. This has expanded the automobile industry, thereby increasing the sales for e-vehicles and rise in the demand for zero-emission vehicles.

Electric Bicycle Batteries Market, by Region:

North American region will have lucrative opportunities for market investors

The global electric bicycle batteries market is analyzed across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and LAMEA regions. The Asia-Pacific region dominates the market share, especially countries like China, Japan, and India, due to the presence of a large number of manufacturers. Asia-Pacific region is anticipated to be the fastest-growing market due to growing urbanization and increasing demand for regular vehicle alternatives such as e-bikes.
