Electric Vehicle Motor Market By Type (AC Motor, DC Motor), By Electric Vehicle Type (Battery Electric Vehicle, Hybrid Vehicles, Plug-in-Hybrid Vehicles), By Application (Passenger Cars, Commercial Vehicles): Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2023-2032
The electric motor is an important part of electric vehicle powertrain, as it converts electricity to torque to move the vehicle. The power delivered by the battery pack is supplied to the motor, which converts this electrical energy into mechanical energy, thus resulting in the movement of the vehicle. Electric vehicles have motors that use regenerative braking which means that the motors start generating power and start delivering the power back to the battery pack when not consumed.
The significant impacting factors in the global electric vehicle motor market trend include rise in demand for hybrid and electric vehicles, stringent regulations set by the government for the automotive industry, and an increase in research and development initiatives. However, high manufacturing costs are anticipated to be the major factor hampering the growth of the market during the forecast period. Similarly, proactive government initiatives for promoting electric vehicles and the growth of autonomous driving technology are anticipated to provide major growth opportunities for the companies operating in the market.
There has been an increase in focus on electrification of public fleet due to the increasing price of fuel and high maintenance cost similarly the electric powered buses will aid in reduction of pollution level. In addition, several supportive government schemes and incentives have encouraged adoption of electric vehicles in commercial fleets, encouraging market players in the electric vehicle motor market to introduce advanced and efficient motors.
The penetration of battery electric vehicles has increased significantly in the last five years as they are efficient and eco-friendly. In addition, surge in consumer demand to minimize fuel costs by increase in vehicle efficiency is driving the adoption of battery electric vehicles across the globe. Moreover, significant rise in costs of petrol & diesel, along with increase in governmental regulations pertaining to carbon dioxide emissions contributes toward increased adoption of battery electric vehicles.
Electric vehicles and hybrid vehicles have lower running costs and are also better for the environment. Moreover, governments are encouraging purchases of fuel-efficient vehicles by providing tax incentives. A recent study published by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) and Idaho National Laboratory report titled ‘’Levelized Cost of Charging Electric Vehicles in the United States’’ states that using EV as compared to ICE vehicle can help consumer save $14,500 on fuel cost over a span of 15 years.
Likewise, the steep increase and constant fluctuations in the prices of fuel have resulted in manufacturers shifting their focus toward the development of electric and hybrid powertrain technology, which is positively impacting the demand for the electric vehicle motor market. Manufacturers are also investing in R&D initiatives for the development of electric & hybrid technology in luxury and super cars segment, which is further anticipated to drive the demand for electric vehicle motors.
Major players have adopted different strategies to strengthen their product portfolio and cater to the growing consumer demand. For instance In August 2023, Robert Bosch GmbH started production of its new powertrain, which is based on its 800-Volt technology. According to the company, this technology is expected to enable faster recharging of the battery. In the current variant of the electric motor, Bosch has increased the power density, this has reduced weight and allows for a more compact design. In terms of power-to-weight ratio, this motor delivers 35% more power density, at 60 kW/kg. It also offers an excellent torque density of 105 N·m/kg. The motor can achieve a maximum efficiency of up to 98%.
