U.S. Electric Lawn Mowers Market - Comprehensive Study and Strategic Assessment 2022-2027

U.S. Electric Lawn Mowers Market - Comprehensive Study and Strategic Assessment 2022-2027

The U.S. electric lawn mowers market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 8.62% during 2022-2027.

MARKET INSIGHTS

a) The United States electric lawn mowers market shipment is expected to reach 3,196.32 thousand units by 2027. Electric lawn mowers are the garden equipment for grass cutting and lawn mowing powered by electricity directly or indirectly. These mowers are eco-friendly and minimize environmental emissions. These can be classified as electric corded and battery-powered lawn mowers.

b) The US accounts for a revenue share of nearly 82% in the North American electric lawn mowers market. The country is one of the largest markets for electric lawn mowers demand worldwide and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 8.62% (by revenue) during the forecast period. The growth is attributed to the increasing government initiatives to develop smart cities to boost sustainability and achieve operational efficiency. The smart city initiatives are driving the consumers' adoption of smart products, which is projected to boost demand for robotic lawn mowers.

c) Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) states that gasoline lawn mowers are a major contributor to nonroad air pollution. In the US alone, nearly 17 million gallons of fuel are dumped onto the field yearly during lawn and garden refueling. As a result, the government across the country is increasingly emphasizing reducing Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions, encouraging the adoption of electric equipment in the market. Moreover, in October 2021, the Government of California signed a bill into law to ban gasoline-powered garden equipment, including leaf blowers and garden mowers, by 2024. Hence, such initiatives are boosting the electric lawn mower demand across the country.

d) Technological advancements focused on improving run times and power are expected to level the performance of battery-powered products to compete with conventional engine-powered models in commercial markets.

e) The fact that corded mowers limit mobility due to cord length and safety hazards such as electric shock while mowing wet grass and the possibility of losing control has been a challenge in the growth of corded lawn mowers. However, vendors are incorporating features that automatically switch off these mowers the minute an operator loses control of the mower, thereby addressing concerns in the market

KEY HIGHLIGHTS

• The Florida Department of Environmental Protection is taking initiatives to boost the green cover across the state. The plan for developing new playgrounds at St. Andrews State Park is underway. Hence, such initiatives for the construction of new parks and playgrounds are expected to boost the electric lawn mowers market demand across the state
• In 2021, the government of California banned gasoline lawn mowers which are expected to push the demand for electric-powered mowers in the market.
• The gasoline prices in the US market are at an all-time high ranging between $4-$6 per gallon across various US states. Hence, such high gasoline prices are expected to further boost the demand in the market.
• The Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) has laid down various standards related to performance requirements, labeling, and other aspects of walk-behind mowers to ensure consumer safety. Hence, the electric walk-behind lawn mowers should meet federal standards and comply with regulations before making them available in the market.
• According to US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), around 30% of the water in the US is used for watering gardens and lawns. However, climate changes and other weather patterns have affected rainfall, leading to a water supply crisis across various cities. Hence, water shortage is expected to affect the garden acreage & therefore, the demand for electric garden mowers in the market.
