High initial costs associated with electric two-wheelers are a major restraint for market growth.
Limited charging infrastructure and range anxiety among consumers are also hindering the adoption of two-wheeler hub motors.
- Asia Pacific: In Asia Pacific, countries like China, Japan, and South Korea are the key markets for two-wheeler hub motors. The increasing urbanization, rising disposable income, and government initiatives to promote electric vehicles are propelling the growth of the market in this region. China, in particular, is one of the largest markets for electric two-wheelers globally, creating significant opportunities for hub motor manufacturers.
- Europe: The European market for two-wheeler hub motors is also witnessing steady growth, driven by stringent emission regulations, increasing consumer awareness about environmental sustainability, and the presence of key players in countries such as the United Kingdom, Germany, and France. These factors are expected to fuel the adoption of electric two-wheelers with hub motors in Europe in the coming years.
By Vehicle:
The two wheeler hub motor market can be segmented by vehicle type into motorcycles and scooters. Motorcycles are the dominant segment in the market due to their higher power output and performance capabilities. However, the demand for hub motors in scooters is also growing rapidly, driven by the increasing popularity of electric scooters in urban areas.
Installation:
The market can also be categorized based on installation type into front hub motors and rear hub motors. Front hub motors are typically easier to install and offer better stability and control, making them popular among electric bike manufacturers. On the other hand, rear hub motors are preferred for their better traction and climbing ability, making them ideal for off-road and mountain bikes.
Motor:
In terms of motor type, the market can be segmented into geared hub motors and gearless hub motors. Geared hub motors are more compact and efficient, making them suitable for urban commuting. Gearless hub motors, on the other hand, offer smoother acceleration and less maintenance, making them popular in high-performance electric bikes.
Sales Channel:
The two wheeler hub motor market can also be segmented by sales channel into OEMs (Original Equipment Manufacturers) and aftermarket. OEMs account for the majority of the market share, as they provide hub motors as standard equipment in new electric bikes. The aftermarket segment is growing steadily, driven by the increasing demand for hub motor upgrades and replacements.
Power Output:
Power output is another key segment in the two wheeler hub motor market, with options ranging from 250W to 1000W and above. Lower power output hub motors are typically used in city commuting bikes, while higher power output hub motors are preferred for off-road and performance bikes. The increasing trend towards high-performance electric bikes is driving the demand for hub motors with higher power output.
