Market Dynamics

Drivers

Surge in demand for efficient vehicles

As gasoline is a fossil fuel, it is not a renewable source of energy and is expected to be depleted in the future. It is critical to develop and use alternative fuel sources to support sustainable development. This entails the use of electric vehicles, which do not require gasoline and are more cost effective than conventional vehicles. An electric vehicle converts more than half of the electrical energy from the grid to power at the wheels, whereas a gas-powered vehicle only converts about 17-21% of the energy stored in gasoline. Because of the recent increase in the price of petrol and diesel, there has been an increase in demand for fuel-efficient vehicles.

Stringent government rules and regulations

An internal combustion engine generates power in a traditional fuel-powered vehicle. In a general case, the combustion system completely burns the fuel and produces just carbon dioxide and water as waste; nevertheless, the combustion system produces a variety of toxic gases, resulting pollution. An electric vehicle, on the other hand, employs an electric motor that is driven by a constant source of electricity and hence does not emit any pollutants. The government of some countries such as U.S., China, France, and Germany has enacted strict laws and regulations regarding vehicle emissions, which is paving way for the growth of electric vehicle demand in the market.

Restraints

High cost of production

Electric vehicles are more preferable than regular vehicles, although they are more expensive. The lack of charging infrastructure linked with the development of electric vehicles has proven to be a hindrance to the market's expansion. Similarly, manufacturers require a significant amount of capital and assets, which could stifle the market growth. The cost of batteries is predicted to fall in the next years as a result of increased production of electric vehicle batteries in huge quantities and developments in technology.As a result, electric vehicle manufacturing necessitates a significant investment, which has a negative impact on market growth.

Opportunities

Technological advancements

The automobile manufacturers are concentrating on the development of improved electric vehicle systems that are predicted to emit fewer pollutants at cheaper costs. Companies have also begun developing reduced engines for use in vehicles, as smaller engines aid in meeting the pollution standards. This is because they emit fewer pollutants than heavier and larger engines. These engine's compactness and cost-effectiveness add even another dimension to their utility. As a result, the future development of advanced Gasoline Direct Injection (GDI) systems opens numerous prospects for key players in the market.

Challenges

Lack of infrastructure for charging electric vehicles

The lack of infrastructure to support the growth of electric vehicles has proven to be a barrier to the growth of electric vehicle market. Many countries throughout the world have few electric vehicle charging outlets. As a result, public electric vehicle charging becomes less accessible, lowering demand for electric vehicles in the market. Despite the fact that many governments are attempting to establish electric vehicle charging infrastructure, most countries have not been able to develop an adequate number of charging stations. Once a well-developed electric vehicle charging network persists around the world, demand for electric vehicles will rise in the market.
