Geography – Segment Analysis
North America is analysed to hold highest market share in 2019 majorly attributed to the high economy and the presence of geriatric population. The significant presence of the golf courses in the North American region is further contributing to the market growth rate. Furthermore, the growth of luxury tourism in the region alongside the adoption of electric low speed vehicles due to low noise carbon emissions is set to boost the growth rate in the region. As the region has high economy, the sales of the personal utility vehicles in the region for the geriatric population is further set to boost the market growth rate.
Drivers – Low-Speed Vehicles market
- Rising geriatric population to boost the demand for low-speed vehicles:
The significant rise in the geriatric population in countries such US, India and so on is set to cause a rise in the demand for the low-speed vehicles thereby acting as a key driver for the market. As stated by US Census, the elderly population of age above 55 years is set to rise by 23.4% by 2060. The geriatric population majorly deploys the low-speed vehicles such as electric scooters, wheelchairs and so on in the developed economies, therefore this factor is set to escalate the market growth rate during the forecast period.
- Increasing use of lithium-ion batteries in the low-speed electric vehicles:
The use of lithium-ion batteries has significantly increased in recent times owing to their advantages thereby contributing to the increasing growth of the low-speed electric vehicles. Lithium-ion batteries have higher energy density and provide better power efficiency therefore they are highly deployed in the low-speed electric vehicles and are set to boost the market growth rate during the forecast period 2020-2025.
Challenges – Low-Speed Vehicles market
In the electric vehicles more energy from the battery is taken to the inverter causing switching losses, thereby impacting on the vehicle performance. It also affects the thermal efficiency of electronic units in the electric drive system thereby hindering the market growth. Alongside this, these low speed vehicles lack safety standards thereby resulting in the accidents and hindering the market growth rate.
Market Landscape
Technology launches, acquisitions, and R&D activities are key strategies adopted by players in the Low Speed Vehicles market. Low Speed Vehicles driver market is expected to be dominated by major companies such as Ingersoll Rand, Textron Inc., Yamaha Motor Corp., Polaris Inc., Kubota Corp., Colubia Vehicle Group among others.
Acquisitions/Technology Launches/Partnerships
- In January 2019, Textron has launched Hauler 800 ELiTE electric utility vehicle, which is powered by Samsung SDI lithium technology.
Key Takeaways
- Low speed Electric vehicles are analysed to grow at highest rate during the forecast period owing to the growth in recorded sales due to cheaper costs, maintenance and stringent environmental norms.
- North America is analysed to hold highest market share in 2019 owing to the high geriatric population alongside the highly developed economy.
- The increasing demand for electric vehicles is set to drive the market for Low Speed Vehicles market during the forecast period.
