E-bikes are growing in popularity as a trendy mode of transport. They are easy to operate, convenient for all age groups, are economically efficient, and environment-friendly. Furthermore, while public transit declined worldwide due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the demand for e-bikes increased exponentially.
However, the high cost of e-bikes is one of the key restraints to the growth of the market. Electric bikes have more associated costs than conventional bicycles owing to the technology and associated components, including battery, motor, and others. Furthermore, the lack of proper and proximal charging infrastructure is also expected to hinder the growth of the market.
The market is segmented by product type into pedelecs, throttle on-demand, and scooter or motorcycle, out of which, the pedelecs segment is anticipated to hold the largest share of the market and witness significant growth over the forecast period. The growth of the segment is attributed to several advantages over types, such as high mobility, better battery life, and lower servicing needs. By 2023, global sales for pedal support e-bikes are estimated to be approximately 40 million units. Furthermore, throttle on-demand segment is projected to witness the highest growth rate owing to factors such as decreased pedalling needs, which is convenient for older people, and convenient for trekking purposes.

Based on the drive mechanism, the market is segmented into hub motor, mid-drive, and others, out of which, the hub motor segment is estimated to hold the largest share of the market over the forecast period owing to being cheaper than mid drives and requires little or no maintenance on the back of being an entirely independent drive system that retains all of their component inside the motor casing.
The market is further segmented on the basis of battery type into lead acid, lithium-ion (Li-ion), nickel-metal hydride (NiMH), and others. The lead-acid segment holds the largest share of the market on the back of factors such as, its low-cost and easy recycling. However, the lithium-ion (Li-ion) segment is anticipated to witness the highest growth over the forecast period owing to factors such as more power-to-weight ratio, efficient battery chemistry and charging, and long-lasting battery life.
