Electric Powertrain Market

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Electric Powertrain Market is accounted for $97.7 billion in 2023 and is expected to reach $298.5 billion by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 17.3% during the forecast period. An electric powertrain consists of components that propel electric vehicles (EVs). It typically includes a battery pack, which stores electrical energy, an electric motor, which converts the stored energy into mechanical energy to drive the vehicle, and a power electronics unit, which manages the flow of electricity between the battery and the motor. In some cases, a single-speed transmission may also be included to optimize performance. Electric powertrains offer numerous benefits, including zero tailpipe emissions, lower operating costs, and reduced dependence on fossil fuels, making them a key solution for sustainable transportation.

According to the action plan, Beijing will popularise low-carbon energy modes of transportation, accelerating the transition from gasoline to electricity on vehicles such as buses, taxis, and other EVs. 

Market Dynamics: 

Driver: 

Soaring demand for electric vehicles (EVs)

The growing demand for electric powertrains prompts investments in the expansion of supply chains. Manufacturers seek to establish efficient and resilient supply chains to ensure a steady flow of components required for electric powertrains, such as batteries, electric motors, and power electronics. Thus these advancements may include improvements in battery technology (such as energy density and charging speed), motor efficiency, regenerative braking systems, and overall powertrain integration.

Restraint:

Lack of widespread charging infrastructure

Commercial fleets and long-haul transportation sectors may be hesitant to adopt electric vehicles due to the lack of charging infrastructure. These segments require reliable and widespread charging networks to support their operations effectively. Without adequate infrastructure, the transition to electric powertrains in these sectors may be sluggish and companies may hesitate to invest in the production and development of electric powertrain components if they are unsure about the widespread adoption of electric vehicles due to infrastructure challenges.

Opportunity:

Growing awareness of environmental issues

Environmental awareness influences consumer preferences, leading to an increasing demand for electric vehicles equipped with electric powertrains. As people become more aware of environmental issues such as climate change and air pollution, there is a growing preference for clean transportation options and consumers are more inclined to choose vehicles that align with their values of environmental sustainability and reducing carbon footprints, thereby driving up sales of electric powertrains.

Threat:

Slower charging times 

Businesses with vehicle fleets may hesitate to transition to electric vehicles if slower charging times disrupt their operations. Longer charging times can result in increased downtime for fleet vehicles, impacting productivity and operational efficiency. This hesitation can delay fleet electrification efforts and limit the adoption of electric powertrains in commercial and industrial sectors.

Covid-19 Impact

Supply chain disruptions and reduced consumer demand due to economic uncertainties. However, as the focus on sustainability increased post-pandemic, coupled with government stimulus packages supporting green initiatives, the market rebounded. The pandemic accelerated trends towards remote work and increased e-commerce, driving demand for electric delivery vehicles. Moreover, concerns about air quality and a shift towards cleaner transportation solutions bolstered the adoption of electric vehicles, consequently boosting the electric powertrain market's growth trajectory.

The battery electric vehicles (BEVs) segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

The battery electric vehicles (BEVs) segment is estimated to have a lucrative growth, as electric vehicles directly create a surge in demand for electric powertrains. As more BEVs are manufactured and sold, the market for these powertrain systems grows proportionally. This high demand incentivizes companies to invest in research, development, and production of electric powertrains driving the market.

The charging infrastructure segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

The charging infrastructure segment is anticipated to witness the highest CAGR growth during the forecast period, a well-developed charging network with convenient access to charging stations alleviates ""range anxiety,"" a significant concern for potential EV buyers. This concern stems from the worry about finding places to recharge, limiting travel options. By ensuring readily available charging, more consumers are likely to consider EVs, leading to a rise in EV sales and consequently, a higher demand for electric powertrains.

Region with largest share:

Asia Pacific is projected to hold the largest market share during the forecast period as this region is home to some of the world's largest EV manufacturers, including China's BYD and SAIC Motor, Japan's Nissan and Toyota, and South Korea's Hyundai and LG. Many governments in the Asia Pacific region are actively promoting EV adoption through subsidies, tax breaks, and investments in charging infrastructure. This creates a favourable environment for electric powertrain manufacturers and incentivizes local production. These giants are heavily invested in electric powertrain research, development, and production, further solidifying the region's leadership in the market.

Region with highest CAGR:

North America is projected to have the highest CAGR over the forecast period, owing to governments in North America, particularly the United States and Canada, are implementing stricter emission regulations to combat climate change. Electric powertrains offer a zero-emission solution, making them increasingly attractive to automakers striving to comply with these regulations. This signifies a strong belief in the future of electric mobility and fuels the growth of the electric powertrain market.
