Off-Highway Electric Vehicle Market Sales Boost the Expanding Infrastructure

Published Date : 24 Mar 2023

The off-highway electric vehicle market drives growth due to the rise in demand for electric machinery and vehicles. Governments are enforcing automobile emission standards to preserve the ecological balance

The rise in demand for electric machinery in the construction industry, along with rising sales of electric vehicles, is what is driving the off-highway electric vehicle market expansion.

Market Overview

Electric automobiles intended to operate off-road are known as OHEVs. Moreover, these electric automobiles store energy utilizing a range of batteries, including lead acid, nickel metal hybrid, and lithium-ion. Off-road vehicle emissions are carefully regulated by several regulatory organizations, including the China VI and India BS-VI emission standards. Sales of electric highway vehicles are increasing as a result of expanding infrastructure in developing markets and the launch of reconstruction initiatives in industrialized nations.

Government agencies have severe emission guidelines, such as those for greenhouse gas emissions in the US (GHGs). Two important entities that have an impact on the world market are the European Commission and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

Reports Highlights:

  • By Applications, In 2022, the global market for off-highway electric vehicles saw the largest revenue share—close to X%—go to the agricultural sector. Electric tractors and harvesters are shown in this part. One of the major factors affecting the market demand for this equipment is the rising government spending on the development of public infrastructure throughout the globe. This section discusses electric tractors, harvesters, and other agricultural machinery. Customers have started embracing cutting-edge agricultural technology to increase yields in places like North America and Europe.
  • By Electric Vehicles, In terms of revenue, the Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV) sector had the greatest share of X% in 2022 and is expected to rule the market from 2023 to 2032. By utilizing an electric powertrain, these automobile types aim to boost the efficiency of internal combustion engines. Due to the tight pollution regulations established by regulatory authorities like the U.S. EPA and the European Commission, there is a greater demand for off-highway equipment with hybrid propulsion. Manufacturers are being compelled to create more ecologically friendly off-highway vehicles as a result of the EPA's increasing demand for hybrid off-highway propulsion equipment. Off-road vehicle producers have started using hybrid engines, a form of the diesel-electric power system, as of 2017. 
  • The off-highway electric vehicle sector is expected to see the greatest CAGR of XX% from 2023 to 2032 in the BEV segment. The CO2 emission limits and the delay in the uptake of internal combustion engine (ICE) cars are both responsible for the segment's expansion

Market Dynamics:

Drivers

Increasing customers are using electric vehicles in the agriculture industry

A lot of machinery and equipment are required to succeed in the objective of maintaining farmland in excellent working order. It takes a lot of space to run even a modest farm; therefore, getting about the fields requires automobiles in the first place. Electric utility vehicles are becoming more common on farms and pastures across the country, and they are also a popular option for private estate owners. Farmers may drastically reduce their dependency on fuel and diesel by lowering operating expenses. These extra characteristics allow farmers to move valuable goods across the farm without consuming a lot of energy. While being used to traverse a range of terrains, electric farm vehicles are not the only ones that are employed on agricultural land.

Restraints

Short battery life of off-highway electric vehicle

The off-highway electric vehicle's battery life is a significant market limitation. The range of the car will be decreased, and more frequent charging will be required. With time, the battery's capacity will likewise decline, significantly reducing the vehicle's range. The battery's performance will also be influenced by the temperature, with moderate temperatures being preferable. The performance of the battery will also be impacted by the weight of the vehicle, as bigger cars require more energy to move and have shorter ranges. The vehicle's speed will also have an impact on the battery's performance, as faster speeds use more energy and have a shorter range.

Opportunities

Off-highway electric vehicle technology development

In terms of technical advancement, the off-highway electric vehicle industry has seen significant changes. Due to their high output efficiency and low weight, electrical components are frequently used by market participants in this segment to meet customer demands for transportation that are both affordable and functionally competent as well as fuel-efficient.

For instance, at an international trade show sponsored by the National Mining Association, Caterpillar launched the R1700 XE LHD battery electric vehicle at MINExp in June 2021. The production of dangerous greenhouse gases from moving automobiles, however, is a significant consideration since it raises worries for the environment and human health.  As a result, governments all over the world are enforcing automobile emission standards to limit greenhouse gas emissions and preserve the ecological balance.

Challenges

Costly off-highway electric vehicle maintenance

Off-highway electric vehicles have a long operating life because they have to operate in difficult terrain, but they are susceptible to part breakage, component failure, and overheating.  In contrast to older utility vehicles like ATVs, UTVs, and snowmobiles, which require completely different maintenance procedures, both new and used cars experience wear and tear over time.

Vehicle system and tire rotation checks must be performed twice a year on EVs. Vehicle system and tire rotation checks must be performed twice a year on EVs. They support the lifetime of the EV and optimal battery performance. If the manufacturer's warranty has expired and the EV has been in use for more than 8 to 10 years, the battery will likely need to be replaced at some point as well. A brand-new battery might cost between $5,000 and $10,000.
