The market is expected to grow due to the increasing demand for energy-efficient commuting options, rising concern for carbon emission by ICE-based two-wheelers, and increasing fossil fuel prices worldwide coupled with depleting reserves contributing to the market growth. Furthermore, the increasing interest of established two-wheeler market players entering the electric motorcycle space and the advent of electric motorcycle startups providing technologically advanced vehicles also supports the market growth.

U.S. Electric Motorcycle market size and growth rate, 2023 - 2030

The introduction of charging station ecosystems, declining battery costs, and the development of battery management technologies by major market players is contributing to the electric motorcycle industry growth. Additionally, the inclusion of telematics, cellular connectivity, and improvement in aerodynamic characteristics of vehicles, are creating new opportunity avenues for electric motorcycle industry development within the forecast period.

The market has gained significant traction over the years owing to the active advocacy from government authorities worldwide. In emerging economies such as India and Indonesia, governments are introducing incentives and schemes for purchasing and manufacturing electric motorcycles. For instance, on January 2023, the Indonesian government announced that by 2024, Indonesia would provide public funds amounting to USD 455.88 million (7 trillion rupiah) to subsidize the purchase of electric motorcycles. The government anticipates increasing the vehicle count by 2024. The shift towards electric vehicles will contribute to a decrease in the usage of fossil fuels and the development of EV production facilities to use the nation's abundant nickel sources, which are crucial for the production of batteries. Similarly, on June 2021, the Indian government increased the subsidy forelectric two-wheelersunder the second phase of the FAME India scheme by 50%, making them more affordable-a decision that will significantly benefit customers of electric motorcycles. According to the Ministry of Heavy Industries and Public Enterprises, under FAME India phase II, the subsidy for electric two-wheelers will now be USD 17.96 (Rs 15,000) per kWh.

The development of battery technology to address the concerns surrounding range and performance anxiety further contributes to market growth. The expansion of battery capacity and its safety is a crucial parameter governing the traction of the market. However, electric motorcycle batteries encounter issues such as catching fires, temperature vulnerability, battery weight, size, and running cost which hinder the market growth The OEMs have developed their batteries with improved power output to address these problems. For instance, in November 2021, Zero Motorcycles, Inc. introduced its new battery pack made of polycarbonate and die-cast aluminum. The lithium ion-based battery contains 56 cells, increasing the battery capacity and improving cell chemistry.

Thelithium-ion batteriesby Zero Motorcycles Inc. have undergone significant advancements. Zero Motorcycles Inc. has increased the energy density of its batteries by up to 20%. These upgraded power packs are available in two standard capacities of 15.6 and 14.4 kWh owing to major battery design and construction advancements. The pack size plus symbol denotes options for further capacity increases of up to 17.3 kWh. The SR/S and SR/F, premium street vehicles, are equipped with a larger 15.6+ kWh battery arrangement, while the ordinary SR/S and SR/F will have a 14.4+ kWh battery configuration. The increase in battery capacity owing to the upgrades coupled with the use of a power tank enables the battery to produce and store over 21 kWh of energy. The maximization of battery capacity prompts the rider to leverage an increased vehicle range of 227 miles (365 km) and an accelerated range of 113 miles (182 km) at 70 mph. and performance. Moreover, this development also created avenues for accelerating the adoption of electric motorcycles, thus supporting market growth.

The absence of charging infrastructure is one of the main obstacles to the electric motorcycle industry expansion. Unlike developed nations, most emerging nations lack the requisite charging infrastructure. Solutions for the infrastructure of charging are provided by manufacturers everywhere. For instance, ChargePoint (U.S.) develops and manufactures the hardware for the charging stations and the power management software for amobile applicationfor the charging network. Moreover, ChargePoint offers demand-based charging stations for every type ofelectric vehicle。类似的选择是provi收费选项ded by ONEX Commercial (Taiwan), including standard, quick, and battery swapping. For the market to flourish, customers need an extensive charging infrastructure network that allows them to go long distances without worrying about where the nearest charging station is.
