Global In-Wheel Motor Market 2023-2029
An in-wheel motor, also known as a hub motor, is an electric motor that is integrated into a vehicle's wheel hub. It provides direct power to the wheel without the need for a transmission or drive shaft, resulting in a more efficient and compact design. In-wheel motors can be used in both electric and hybrid vehicles, and they offer several advantages over traditional powertrain systems. One advantage of in-wheel motors is their ability to provide independent control of each wheel, allowing for better traction control and stability in difficult driving conditions. They also provide more space for designers to work with, as they eliminate the need for a bulky engine compartment and transmission system. In-wheel motors also offer regenerative braking, which captures energy during braking and stores it in the vehicle's battery for later use. The global in-wheel motor market is projected to rise by USD 20.1 billion by 2029, according to the latest market study results. It is anticipated to expand at a CAGR of 23.25 percent during the forecast period.
