India Electric Bicycle (E-Bike) Market Pedals Fast at a CAGR of 15.7%

Published | 08 September 2022

India Electric Bicycle (e-bike) Market is set to expand at an impressive growth rate due to people’s increasing focus on cost- and fuel-efficiency, companies’ last-mile connectivity, and government’s favorable regulations and incentives.

BlueWeave Consulting, a leading strategic consulting and market research firm, in its recent study, forecasts India electric bicycle (e-bike) market size to grow at a significant CAGR of 15.7% during the forecast period (2022–2028). The e-bike market in India is being propelled ahead by rising customer demand for e-bikes for recreation and adventure activities, as well as the usage of e-bikes in other categories such as logistics and rentals.

Large & Dense Population and Rapid Urbanization

E-bike is a bicycle with an electric motor that can be used to help or replace pedaling. E-bikes, like any other bike, have a variety of technical specifications. During the forecast period, the e-bike market is expected to benefit from the country's population, which is second largest in the world as well as focus on improving last-mile logistics in expanding urban areas. The e-bike market in India is still in its early stage, with a number of local companies selling a wide range of bikes. However, the high price of e-bikes may limit the industry growth.

Impact of COVID-19 on India Electric Bicycle (E-Bike) Market

The Covid-19 pandemic is expected to have a long-term favorable impact on the India e-bike market. People were wary of using public transportation during the pandemic, which, in turn, increased the demand for e-bikes. The government's electrification policy has also aided the growing demand for e-bikes. Consumers have begun to realize that automobiles with combustion engines emit 60% more pollution than those with electric motors. The usage of e-bikes as a personal means of transportation skyrocketed when the lockdown was revoked. This upward trend in the market is expected to continue in the long run.

Competitive Landscape

India electric bicycle (e-bike) market is moderately fragmented with a number of startups and companies, such as Hero Cycles, GoZero, Being Human, and Giant Bicycles Co. Ltd. Advanced battery technology, lightweight materials, and increased investments in R&D are driving the market. Major global e-bike manufacturers are expanding their market reach in India, and local companies are launching new models.

Recent Developments
