The global electric commercial vehicle market is estimated to be 125,212 Units in 2017 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 39.85% to reach 1,831,865 Units by the end of 2025. Some of the major drivers of this market are the need for fuel-efficient and emission-free vehicles and the increasing demand for electric commercial vehicle such as electric truck in the logistics industry to minimize the additional liability of fuel expenses. Innovations in EV battery capacity, which will enable electric commercial vehicle to carry heavy loads over longer range, can create new revenue generation opportunities. Whereas, oil companies lobbying against EV, limited battery power, and longer charging duration are few challenges for the global market.

The market is segmented by propulsion system, vehicle type, components, range, charging infrastructure, autonomous vehicle, and region. The report discusses four propulsion systems of electric commercial vehicle, namely, battery electric vehicle (BEV), hybrid electric vehicle (HEV), plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV), fuel cell electric vehicle (FCEV). BEV accounts for the largest market share in the electric commercial vehicle market, by propulsion, and is estimated to grow with the highest CAGR during the forecast period because of its wide application in several types of vehicles.

The bus segment is estimated to be the fastest growing market, in terms of volume, for electric commercial vehicle, by vehicle, followed by van, pick-up truck, and truck. Various government mandates and individual country targets to phase out fossil fuel-based public transportation system and to replace them with electric buses will help the bus market grow over the forecast period.

Above 500 miles range segment of the Electric commercial vehicle market is expected to grow the most. In this segment, the market growth will be propelled mostly by bus. The growth is expected with anticipation that most of the electric commercial vehicles produced and sold over the forecast period will be buses.  Efforts have been on to make buses that can travel longer range on a single charge.

The study covers four key regions, namely, Asia Pacific, Europe, North America, and the Rest of the World (RoW).

Asia Pacific is forecasted to have the largest market share, in terms of volume, followed by Europe. This growth is mainly fuelled by the growth in adoption of electric buses in Asia Pacific countries such as China, South Korea, and Japan and government mandates for curbing out urban pollution by using emission-free vehicles. Increasing investment in the development of electric vehicles, development in charging infrastructure, activities to create awareness about the benefit associated with electric commercial vehicle (for instance, reduction of additional expenses for users), and increasing electric commercial vehicle sales are projected to drive the growth of the Electric commercial vehicle market in this region.

Some of the major restraints identified in the global market are the less number of supportive charging stations for electric commercial vehicle across the globe, high development cost for electric commercial vehicle, and ongoing IC developments that promise less emission.

Some of the major players in the electric commercial vehicle market are Daimler (Germany), Tesla (US), Proterra (US), BYD (China), and NISSAN (Japan). The last chapter of this report covers a comprehensive study of the key vendors operating in the global market. The evaluation of market players is done by taking several factors into account, such as new product development, R&D expenditure, business strategies, product revenue, and organic and inorganic growth.
