Reports Description
The rising demand for self-driven electric trucks is boosting the market’s growth
According to Custom Market Insights (CMI), the Global Electric Truck Market size was estimated at USD 4.5 Billion in 2021 and is expected to reach USD 6.6 billion in 2022 and is expected to hit around USD 27.5 Billion by 2030, poised to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 30% from 2022 to 2030. The report examines the Electric Truck market’s drivers and restraints, as well as their impact analysis. Also, the report mentions global opportunities prevailing in the Electric Truck market.
The most recent model of fuel- and gasoline-free vehicles are electric trucks. Fuel shortages have led to a significant increase in the market acceptance of electric vehicles. The global electric truck market is anticipated to increase in the near future as a result of strict rules and norms linked to pollution, global warming, and greenhouse gas emissions.
Electric Truck Market: COVID–19 Impact Analysis
When vehicle sales substantially decreased as a result of lockdowns in the early months of the epidemic, the whole automobile market incurred losses. However, in the second half of 2020, sales rose, and, in most cases, the losses from those earlier months were reduced. Due to the global trend toward increasing vehicle electrification in 2020 and 2021, there was an increase in the sales of electric vehicles. Thus, the pandemic had a smaller impact on this industry. Similarly, the demand for electric trucks fell in the first half of 2020 before rising later.
Component production was also stopped during the COVID-19 epidemic because small Tier II and Tier III manufacturers were cash-strapped. As a result, production stopped during the epidemic, which was followed by a decline in demand. This could have a significant effect on Electric Truck firms. The second wave in India also had an impact on auto sales, which slowed the expansion of the Electric Truck sector.
Electric Truck Market: Growth Drivers
Rising demand for self-driven electric trucks
Self-driving cars are a recent trend that is expanding on a global scale. The self-driving electric trucks assist drivers in operating vehicles safely and easily. The major market participants are widely introducing self-driving electric trucks. The market for electric trucks is expanding as a result of consumer desire for self-driving vehicles with cutting-edge capabilities. As a result, throughout the projected period, the worldwide electric truck market will rise due to the rising demand for self-driving electric trucks.
Need for sustainable mobility
The introduction of electric trucks (such as longer-range battery-electric and fuel-cell electric trucks) and other electric vehicles for demanding and heavy long-haul operations are being encouraged by the increased adoption of sustainable transportation. Between 2022 and 2030, hydrogen fuel cell-powered electric trucks are anticipated to be commercially available. It is necessary to switch from fossil fuels to alternatives like electricity quickly in order to mitigate the effects of climate change on transportation. As a result, most transportation companies will probably switch to electric vehicles gradually. Several of these will have a mixed fleet of trucks that are powered by various fuels during the transition.
Governments will be able to accomplish the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) set forth by the United Nations thanks to energy savings made possible by cleaner, more efficient transportation. Like other electric cars, electric trucks will help reduce tailpipe pollution and dependence on fossil fuels, while boosting community health, providing energy security, and enhancing employment & skill-upgrading opportunities. Goals for renewable energy and electric mobility can be combined to further reduce carbon emissions in the transportation sector. By providing EV charging infrastructure and switching fleet vehicles to electric trucks, businesses and government organizations in Europe and developing countries may play a significant role in reducing global greenhouse gas emissions and fostering the use of electric trucks.
Electric Truck Market Segmentation Analysis
In our research scope, the global Electric Truck market is segmented into propulsion, vehicle type, range, and automation level. Based on propulsion, in 2021, the battery electric truck segment led the market for electric trucks. Battery electric trucks are defined as electric vehicles that use batteries to power their engines. The lithium-ion, lead-acid, nickel-metal hydride, and ultracapacitor batteries are utilized in electric trucks. The government is encouraging the use of electric vehicles that operate on batteries due to the growing relevance of renewable energy. This results in significant fuel savings. Battery-electric vehicle development is also being facilitated by technological advancements. As a result, during the time of the forecast, this will fuel the segment's expansion.
