Reports Description
The surging costs of fossil fuels are boosting the market
According to Custom Market Insights (CMI), the Global Electric Commercial Vehicle Market size was estimated at USD 67 Billion in 2021 and is expected to hit around USD 280 Billion by 2030, poised to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 26% from 2022 to 2030.
The report analyses the Electric Commercial Vehicle Market’s drivers and restraints, as well as the impact they have on-demand throughout the projection period. In addition, the report examines global opportunities in the global Electric Commercial Vehicle Market.
Electric Commercial Vehicle Market: Overview
A commercial electric vehicle can run on electricity either totally or partially in place of diesel or gasoline. As they have fewer moving parts to maintain and consume little to no fossil fuels, commercial electric vehicles are also incredibly cost-effective to operate (petrol or diesel). Fleets of vehicles powered by renewable resources are the new trend for governmental authorities, non-profit organizations, and many private firms encouraging sustainable development. Over the past few years, initiatives for technological advances and innovation in transportation have increased.
Electric Commercial Vehicle Market: COVID–19 Impact Analysis
Automakers are taking drastic steps, such as closing plants, to stop the spread of COVID-19 due to the novel coronavirus’s ongoing spread throughout the world. As more European businesses halt operations and US & APAC automakers prolong shutdown periods, the scenario is still murky. The governments of the nations are imposing what seem to be progressively stricter restrictions on travel, social engagement, and attendance at work in diverse places. The automotive industry is at the center of this unrest, which is impeding the development of the global electric commercial vehicle market. These regions are going through comparable problems, which are having a noticeable impact on the economy as well as society and producing huge economic disruption.
Electric Commercial Vehicle Market: Growth Drivers
Rising fossil fuel prices
The US Energy Information Administration estimates that 97.45 million barrels were consumed daily in 2021. With the exception of rare occasions like the COVID-19 epidemic, gasoline prices have been growing over time on the global market. The strong demand for gasoline is to blame for the price increase. It is a non-renewable energy source. Hence it will likely run out within the next few decades. Petrol prices rise as a result of changes in supply and demand. Even though several accords have been established to regulate petrol prices on the global market, prices have increased with time. Due to the fact that most nations must import gasoline, its use affects the economy’s trade balance negatively.
Due to the war between Russia and Ukraine in 2022, petroleum prices, which have already doubled in the last few decades, are anticipated to rise further. This is anticipated to spark new efforts to switch to EVs in order to lower everyday transport expenses across the globe. The cost of fossil fuels globally is also influenced by tax rates. The US has the lowest fuel tax (19%), whereas India imposes a tax on fuel of over 69%. In the past 20 years, all of these factors have increased fuel prices globally. ECVs have significantly lower operating costs than traditional ICE commercial vehicles. Due to their cheaper operating costs compared to the high expense of driving ICE commercial vehicles, this will result in an increase in demand for electric commercial cars.
Rising demand for logistics
As technology takes root and customer expectations to alter, logistics industries are experiencing an era of unparalleled upheaval. A higher level of efficiency and more collaborative operating models are now possible thanks to new technological technology. As a result, it is predicted to have a significant impact on the market for electric commercial vehicles. An increasing number of low-value shipments have been made as a result of the expansion of e-commerce. In response, retailers are setting up “last-mile” fulfillment centers to maintain inventory near customers and decentralizing their distribution centers more and more. The need for electric commercial trucks to move inventory to nearby distribution hubs without emitting any emissions rises as a result of this.
This demonstrates the rise in logistical needs and the demand for electric commercial vehicles to meet those needs. As a result, the players involved in the worldwide electric commercial vehicle market may anticipate benefiting from the growing logistical activities.
Electric Commercial Vehicle Market: Segmentation Analysis
In our research scope, the global electric commercial vehicle market is segmented into Propulsion, Power Output, and Vehicle Type. Based on propulsion, the BEV segment is anticipated to dominate the electric commercial vehicle market in 2021. A BEV is an electric vehicle that solely relies on a battery for power.
The vehicle is propelled by a permanent magnet motor that is powered by an internal battery. BEVs have a 150–200-mile range on average, though this might vary depending on the battery installed. The majority of intracity transport is done in buses, vans, and trucks equipped with BEV propulsion systems. Since the most frequent use for these cars is within cities, BEVs are anticipated to have high demand in the near future.
The running costs for buses are further reduced by the fact that the energy used to power the vehicles is less expensive than diesel fuel. The overall cost of BEVs is anticipated to reduce in the near future due to improvements in battery technology and a steady decline in battery pricing. This, in turn, will further propel the demand for BEVs.

Regional Landscape
In 2021, Asia Pacific dominated the global electric commercial vehicle market. The need to lessen urban pollution and reliance on fossil fuels is driving the market for electric commercial vehicles in the Asia Pacific area. Additionally, this is the world’s biggest market for ECVs. With a share of more than 90% of the electric bus market, China is the greatest contributor to the global market for electric commercial vehicles.
The Chinese and international markets for electric commercial vehicles are dominated by Chinese firms like BYD, Yutong, Ankai, and Zhongtong. Electric buses are being offered at reduced costs by Chinese companies because they have access to more affordable parts and materials. The Chinese government has made considerable investments to replace the fleets of traditional public transportation with electric vehicles.
Additionally, the Indian government has announced plans for financial assistance for EVs, including three years of zero-rated goods and services tax (GST) and the Department of Heavy Industries’ Faster Adoption and Manufacturing of Hybrid and Electric Vehicles (FAME) program. Such initiatives are anticipated to propel the demand in the region.
