It attributes principally to the mounting awareness among electric scooters & motorcycle owners about the benefits of these batteries, like faster charging, high energy storage capacity, and greater durability than others. It, in turn, is augmenting the demand for electric two-wheelers exhibiting these batteries and boosting the market growth.

Besides, aspects like higher energy offering, lightweight manufacturing, and easy installation, reducing expenses on maintenance & operation are the other factors propelling the demand for Lithium-Ion batteries in the global electric scooters & motorcycles market worldwide.

Based on Vehicle Type:

  • Electric Scooters
  • Electric Motorcycles

Here, electric motorcycles are anticipated to acquire a prominent market share through 2027, principally due to a more prominent younger population than others entwined with the introduction of various new models by automakers, i.e., attracting a massive consumer base for electric motorcycles. Besides, the swift improvement in the economic conditions of people and an elevation in vehicle fleet are demonstrating massive traffic congestion worldwide and, in turn, leading to the growing sales of electric motorcycles globally.

On the other hand, the demand for electric scooters is also rising steadily across different corners of the world & notably contributing to the growth of the Global Electric Scooter and Motorcycle Market. It owes to the rise in the working female population increasingly inclined toward private ownership of vehicles like electric scooters for their day-to-day commute.

Regional Landscape

Geographically, the Global Electric Scooter & Motorcycle Market expands across:

  • North America
  • South America
  • Europe
  • Middle East & Africa
  • Asia-Pacific

Of all regions globally, Asia-Pacific is anticipated to dominate the Electric Scooter and Motorcycle Market with the largest share during 2022-27. It owes principally to the numerous government efforts toward bringing environmental sustainability, i.e., demonstrating an active setup of electric vehicle charging infrastructure across different countries, especially China, India, & Japan.

Besides, governments of other countries are also encouraging the public to adopt these vehicles and laying out favorable incentives, subsidies, tax exemptions, and easy financing to bring greater environmental sustainability and reduce carbon emissions.

It, in turn, is generating growth opportunities for automakers to expand their product portfolio & visibility in order to propel the regional market expansion through 2027. Moreover, countries like India are likely to continue demonstrating an upward trend in the electric scooters & motorcycles market owing to the vast middle-class population that prefers two-wheelers.

On the other hand, Europe is projected to acquire the second-largest share in the Electric Scooter and Motorcycle Market during 2022-27. It attributes to stringent regulations by governments of different countries toward curbing the alarming carbon emissions and attain environmental sustainability targets, i.e., leading to the burgeoning sales of electric scooters & motorcycles across the region.

Possible Growth Restraint for the Global Electric Scooter and Motorcycle Market

  • Improper or Lack of EV Charging Infrastructure

While electric scooters & motorcycles are gaining traction, there is still a long way to their 100% deployment across different countries. Several countries & regions, as of now, do not have well-structured EV charging infrastructure, which restrains the sales of these vehicles and challenges the growth of the Global Electric Scooter and Motorcycles Market.

Additionally, as electric scooters & motorcycles are more expensive than fuel-based vehicles & somewhat deliver similar performance, several cost-sensitive consumers are unwilling to invest in these vehicles. Hence, it is another prominent aspect projecting hindrance to the overall market expansion through 2027.
