Rising demand for environmentally friendly transportation options
According to multiple research studies, electric vehicles are more environmentally friendly. Compared to petrol or diesel automobiles, they release minimal or even zero air pollutants and greenhouse gases. Additionally, this accounts for the power needed to maintain them during manufacturing. According to studies conducted by the European Energy Agency, driving an electric car creates 17-30% less carbon emissions than driving a petrol or diesel vehicle. Utilizing low-carbon power also significantly reduces emissions from the production of electricity. Additionally, rising environmental concerns increase demand for sustainable transportation or mobility solutions. Considering all these elements, the rising demand for environmentally friendly transportation options across the globe will fuel the market's growth.
Energy independence offered by electric mobility solutions
The energy independence offered by electric vehicles is observed as a significant driver for the market’s growth. Electric mobility solutions often provide an alternative to traditional internal combustion engine vehicles, which rely on fossil fuels. Multiple countries are dependent on other regions or countries for their fossil fuel resources. The adoption of electric mobility brings a solution for such countries to become energy independent. The adoption of electric vehicles even offers a solution for multiple geopolitical disputes, economic crises, and fluctuating oil prices. Electric mobility also enables the utilization of domestic energy resources along with energy security.
High initial cost
The complexity of lithium-ion battery technology is the main barrier preventing manufacturers from achieving price parity between electric vehicles and conventional automobiles. Several additional variables also considerably raise the price of electric vehicles. The research and development process of electric vehicles requires a high-cost initial investment, which is time-consuming. The battery pack, wheels, and all other components must be uniquely created for a specific electric vehicle. Therefore, the automakers are compelled to raise the price to cover production expenses. An electric vehicle's operating system may be simpler compared to a regular car. But then, sophisticated and intricate technologies are required to produce an electric vehicle. Batteries with high-capacity and electric motors need to be managed by proper electronic systems. Advanced driver assistance technologies are also available in certain battery-electric cars. As a result, BEVs are far more expensive than conventional vehicles. Such factors associated with the investment cost hinder the growth of the market.
Lack of charging infrastructure
Every year, electric vehicle sales increase globally, and all nations are working to meet their environmental goals. Before switching significantly from conventional to electric vehicles, the automobile industry still has a long way to go. The initial cost, range anxiety, lack of charging infrastructure, and lengthy charging times are the reasons limiting the growth of the electric vehicle market.
Among them all, the lack of charging infrastructure acts as a major hindering factor for the market. The lack of charging infrastructure for electric mobility solutions limits the adoption of such mobility solutions by creating concerns about the operation of electric vehicles for long routes. If enough private and public charging facilities are designed for electric vehicle charging, the problem of range anxiety can be solved. Considering the current situation, in 2021, only 1800 stations for charging existed in India. To address this restraint, the Indian government set up a goal to install approximately four lakh charging stations by 2032.
Development of autonomous electric vehicles
Over the past ten years, battery technology has made some of the most significant strides in electric vehicles. Electric vehicles now have greater driving ranges because of cheaper and more effective lithium-ion batteries. Long-distance driving has become simpler for owners of electric cars because of the increasing availability of charging stations. The development of autonomous driving is another field. Electric vehicles are more suitable for autonomous driving than gasoline-powered vehicles since they are simpler to handle and need less upkeep. Fully autonomous electric cars are currently being developed by businesses like Tesla and might be accessible to consumers within a few years. The development of autonomous vehicles is observed as a technological advancement for the market which is considered to offer a plethora of growth opportunities for the market.
Government Incentives
To encourage the policy-driven acceptance of plug-in electric cars, governments in several countries have started offering incentives. These incentives mostly come in the form of refunds on purchases, tax exemptions and credits, and other benefits like access to bus lanes and exemptions from paying fees (such as charges, parking, tolls, etc.). The size of a car's battery or the range of an all-electric vehicle may affect the number of financial incentives. Hybrid electric cars are frequently mentioned. The advantages are also extended in some nations to fuel cells and the conversion of electric vehicles.
