MARKET GROWTH FACTORS:
Technological Advances:
All these advancements in battery technologies and electric motor systems have concomitantly given birth to a new kind of e-bike market. The new generation of batteries has a longer life expectancy coupled with increased rapid and very efficient charging abilities, thus freeing them from restrictions of certain customers. Newer developments include being very intelligent and interconnected into apps–motivation for e-bikes. All leads to research and development increasingly broadening the products scope and making them more suited for commuting to the office or for leisure activities or even older adults needing mobility assistance.
Government Sponsorship and Environmental Incentives:
In this regard, government support and policies are the most significant determinants of growth in the e-bike market. E-bikes are currently being subsidized and, except for some tax rebates by many countries, they’re also directly financed for their citizens in purchase programs because they correspond to the green measures environmentally friendly countries are pursuing toward reducing carbon emissions and thus helping promote more sustainable modes of transportation. An example would be the European Union which so far has been implementing initiatives promoting greener modes of transport. Also, there are countries such as India that are formulating electric mobility schemes to increase e-bike penetration. And more awareness on the harmful effects of the environment will continue driving consumers to adapt further into these e-bikes with zero emissions and less environmental footprint compared to conventional vehicles.
Urbanization and Fuel Price Rise:
Increasingly, urbanization–in particular, concentrated within already-densely populated cities–is proving to be a driving force for the further growth of the e-bike market. In that, e-bikes offer great solutions for the easy movement of commuters within the congested city traffic without having to deal with coming to halt by a road block or worry about wherever to park their rides when they get there. Additionally, there is also the ever-increasing fuel price which makes e-bikes a considerable economic solution for short-to-medium trips. Moreover, as the prices increase, the propensity of consumers to e-bikes increases, making them the cheapest option available to fuel-powered vehicles, especially in metropolitan areas, which are more problematic in terms of traffic flow and parking availability.
