COVID-19 has had a significant impact on the electric three-wheeler market. Both the production and COVID-19 has had a significant impact on the electric three-wheeler market. Both the production and sales of new electric three-wheelers came to a halt across the Asia pacific region as the whole ecosystem got disrupted. OEMs had to wait until lockdowns were lifted to resume production, which affected their business. Post the pandemic, the demand for new electric three-wheelers is expected to show an increase with economies recovering steadily. Nevertheless, another wave of COVID-19 due to newer strains may hamper the recovery in some countries. Subsequently, electric three-wheeler manufacturers would need to adjust the production volume based on the COVID-19 scenario across different countries. Component manufacturing was also suspended during the COVID-19 outbreak, with small Tier II and Tier III manufacturers facing liquidity issues. Thus, production suspension during the outbreak and lower demand post the pandemic might have an unprecedented impact on electric three-wheeler providers.
Asia Pacific electric three-wheeler sales declined by 14.4% between 2019 and 2020 (as per MarketsandMarkets study), the sales outlook was supposed to showcase significant growth from 2021–22 due to multiple steps taken by governments to boost production. For instance, the Government of China has started “Made in China 2025”, which backs companies in the country to compete with regional players. Bangladesh and India, which account for a large share of the Asia Pacific electric three-wheeler production, will observe a decline of 15.0% and 13.8%, respectively, in 2020 compared to 2019.
One of the most important factors driving the electric three-wheeler market is the increasing prices of petroleum products. Consumers from emerging countries are already affected by the increasing costs of petrol and diesel. Electrical three-wheelers operating on electricity significantly reduce the operating cost of these vehicles. Manufacturers are working towards developing three-wheelers that have a higher range than the current models. As they have a lower number of moving parts than conventional three-wheelers, maintenance too is not a major concern. The highest maintenance cost is expected to be the cost of changing the battery, which, however, is not frequent.
Moreover, electric three-wheelers provide zero tailpipe emissions and noise-free transportation. The three-wheelers with carrying capacity of between three to seven people provide mobility solutions for short trips up to 10–12 km, for first and last mile connectivity and as feeder services to the main haul public transport. The electrification of three-wheelers is expected to result in lower operation and maintenance costs as compared to Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) vehicles, making them economically viable. This is driving the market for electric three-wheelers in the Asia Pacific region.
The largest hurdle in the growth of the electric three-wheelers market is expected to be the lack of charging infrastructure. For any user, the most important concern before buying an electric three-wheeler is expected to be the convenience of charging the vehicle anywhere and anytime. Unlike developed countries, most of the emerging countries in the Asia Pacific lack the necessary charging facilities. A widespread and extensive charging infrastructure network is needed to ensure the seamless growth of the electric three-wheeler market. To accelerate electric mobility, the Government of India’s Phase-II of the FAME scheme created growth opportunities for EVs through demand incentives and charging infrastructure programs. FAME II planned to install 2,636 charging stations in 62 cities across 24 states and union territories in 2020, which is expected to be delayed in the short-term due to the pandemic-related economic downturn.
The cost of the development of charging infrastructure for EVs is also very high. As per Bloomberg estimates, approximately USD 2.7 trillion is expected to be needed to set up effective charging infrastructure for EVs worldwide. The battery of an electric three-wheeler needs frequent and fast charging through additional equipment such as electric chargers, which are only available at EV charging stations. The high cost of development of charging infrastructure is hindering the growth of electric three-wheeler market.
The Asia Pacific is a high-growth market for electric three-wheelers. Several countries in the region have a high penetration of three-wheelers and have witnessed a surge in demand for low-emission and fuel-efficient commuting alternatives due to stringent emission norms and increasing crude oil prices. Bajaj Auto is commercially launching its first electric three-wheeler during the second half of the 2022 financial year. This showcases that the demand for efficient and affordable electric three-wheelers is expected to grow significantly in the Indian market. OEMs are entering into strategic partnerships to strengthen their bases in the electric three-wheeler market. For instance, Kandi Technologies Group, Inc. entered into a strategic cooperation agreement with the Jiangsu Jinpeng Group Ltd. to jointly develop pure electric vehicles (EVs) in China. Both companies are expected to make use of their respective advantages to jointly develop several pure EV models that meet China’s ride-sharing market demands as well as consumer needs from the US and other overseas markets. The market in the Asia Pacific is expected to grow exponentially in the coming years due to the high adoption of electric three-wheelers in China and the high potential of the Indian market.
Growth opportunities are also available in Bangladesh, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Thailand, the Philippines, Indonesia, and Singapore. These countries are expected to witness a rapid increase in demand for electric three-wheelers due to government incentives and the presence of supporting infrastructures such as free charging stations and large networks of charging points.
Although electric three-wheelers are more energy-efficient than conventional three-wheelers, they still do not meet the design and performance standards. One of the largest challenges for this market is the lack of consumer attention because of unappealing design and average performance. For example, the Indian electric three-wheeler market has limited options with average design and performance. Therefore, manufacturers need to work on the quality of design and performance of electric three-wheelers to enable an increase in demand.
The batteries of current electric vehicles have low capacities and cover limited distances per charge. The performance and service life of batteries directly affect the performance and cost of electric vehicles. Presently, lead-acid and lithium-ion batteries are used to power electric vehicles. Lithium-ion batteries are gradually replacing lead-acid batteries in electric vehicles as they have longer life and high energy density. However, the capacity of lithium-ion batteries is too low to match the standards of conventional vehicles. In cold climates, the charging-discharging performance of batteries declines significantly, making it difficult to provide maximum power.
The time required to charge an electric vehicle with the equipment currently available is high, leading to consumer dissatisfaction. The average time required to charge an electric vehicle from 0% to 100% with a 7-kW charger is more than six hours. Most charging stations are also equipped with low-capacity chargers. These challenges are required to be overcome to facilitate the growth of the electric commercial vehicle market.
Electric three-wheeler manufacturers have recognized the need for maximum range per charge of the battery. Thus, they are focusing on introducing electric three-wheelers with a range above 50 miles. For instance, Mahindra Electric, a subsidiary of Mahindra & Mahindra, launched an electric three-wheeler Treo Zor in 2020, which has a range of up to ~80 miles in a single full charge to deal with range anxiety. This segment is dominated by performance-based electric three-wheelers. Mostly, electric-three wheelers with Lithium-ion batteries lie in this range. They deliver higher performance and longer life than lead-acid batteries, with a span of 3–4 years.
As electric three-wheelers are still in their initial stage, developments in their range are not taking place as fast as in ICE three-wheelers. This range segment of electric three-wheelers is expected to witness prominent growth in the future due to the need for a reduction in commute time and traffic congestion.
India is the largest market in the region, followed by Bangladesh and the Philippines. India is the largest market in the region due to its government policies to support the adoption of electric three-wheelers. In August 2020, the government introduced the new Delhi Electric Vehicle Policy, 2020, intending to increase the adoption of EVs in the national capital region. The new policy proposed tax waivers, charging and swapping infrastructure establishment, battery cycling ecosystem, and creating a non-lapsable State EV Fund. In 2019, Delhi proposed open permits for electric three-wheelers. Moreover, India already has a well-established market for three-wheelers. This is because of the country’s high taxes on petrol, which increases the demand for alternative fuel vehicles. The government’s new vehicle scrappage policies will also support the growth of electric three-wheelers, besides lowering the cost by providing subsidiaries in the country. In 2020, the purchasers of e-carriers were eligible for a scrapping incentive for scrapping and then registering the old ICE goods carriers registered in Delhi. Up to ~USD 104 (INR 7,500) of the incentive shall be reimbursed by the GNCTD for the purchase of e-carriers
Regulatory support would play a key role in electric three-wheeler adoption. A combination of both fiscal and non-fiscal incentives is critical in the medium term. In terms of charging infrastructure, a mix of plug-in charging and battery swapping models must be carefully deployed for the growth of electric three-wheelers. For instance, in 2021, electric vehicle startup Zypp plans to set up 5,000 battery swapping stations for three-wheelers across India over the next three years. The last-mile delivery company, now operational in six cities, has set up 50 battery swapping stations across Delhi NCR and Jaipur.
The major companies dominating the Asia Pacific electric 3-wheeler market are Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd. (India), Atul Auto Ltd. (India), Piaggio Group (Italy), Lohia Auto Industries (India), and Kinetic Engineering Limited (India). These companies offer extensive products for the electric three-wheeler industry and have strong distribution networks, and they invest heavily in R&D to develop new products.

The study involved four major activities in estimating the current size of the electric three-wheeler market. Exhaustive secondary research was done to collect information on the market, the peer market, and the parent market. The next step was to validate these findings, assumptions, and sizing with the industry experts across value chains through primary research. The top-down and bottom-up approaches were employed to estimate the complete market size. Thereafter, market breakdown and data triangulation processes were used to estimate the market size of segments and subsegments.
In the secondary research process, various secondary sources such as company annual reports/presentations, press releases, industry association publications [for example International Council on Clean Transportation (ICCT), Society of Manufacturers of Electric Vehicles (SMEV), electric three-wheeler magazines, corporate filings such as annual reports, investor presentations, and financial statements; and trade, business, and other electric three-wheeler manufacturers & associations] have been used to identify and collect information useful for an extensive commercial study of the electric three-wheeler market.
Extensive primary research was conducted after acquiring an understanding of the electric three-wheeler market scenario through secondary research. Several primary interviews were conducted with market experts from both the demand (electric three-wheeler manufacturers, country-level government associations, and trade associations) and supply (OEMs and component manufacturers) sides across major countries, namely, India, Nepal, Japan, and Bangladesh, and primary interviews were conducted from the demand and supply sides, respectively. Primary data was collected through questionnaires, emails, and telephonic interviews. In the canvassing of primaries, various departments within organizations, such as sales, operations, and administration, were covered to provide a holistic viewpoint in this report.
After interacting with industry experts, brief sessions with highly experienced independent consultants were conducted to reinforce the findings from primaries. This, along with the in-house subject-matter experts’ opinions, has led to the findings described in the remainder of this report.
