The global electric cargo bikes market reached US$ 940.24 million in 2022 and is projected to witness lucrative growth by reaching up to US$ 3,659.25 million by 2030. The market is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 17.0% during the forecast period (2023-2030).
The electric cargo bikes market is rapidly growing, as more people look for sustainable, affordable, and efficient ways to transport goods. Electric cargo bikes possess large cargo-carrying capacity, usually through the use of racks, panniers or baskets and an electric motor to assist the rider.
Various regions have contributed to the electric cargo bikes market growth, wherein Asia-Pacific is expected to contribute around 25% and North America around 30% by 2030. Netherlands and Denmark, in particular, have witnessed a rise in the appeal of cargo cycles, however, this trend is spreading globally.
Furthermore, countries like the U.K. and Germany hold nearly 2/3rd of Europe's overall electric cargo bikes market share. Many cities, including Paris, Budapest and Vilnius, took advantage of the pandemic bicycling rush to change their urban settings, add marked bike paths, and hasten the development of cycling and walking infrastructure.
Electric cargo bikes produce zero emissions, making them a sustainable transportation option that can help reduce carbon emissions and air pollution. Governments globally are also offering incentives and subsidies to encourage the adoption of electric cargo bikes to promote sustainable transportation and reduce carbon emissions. These factors drive the electric cargo bikes market growth across the globe.
The environmental benefits of electric cargo bikes are also significant. According to a European Cyclists' Federation study, a single electric cargo bike can replace up to 15 delivery vans in urban areas, significantly reducing traffic congestion and air pollution. Moreover, electric cargo bikes have lower operating costs than traditional delivery vehicles, which can result in cost savings for businesses.
Increased adoption of electric cargo bikes can increase traffic congestion, particularly in areas of emerging economies where the road infrastructures are not developed enough to accommodate the growing adoption of electric cargo bikes.
For instance, as per a National Science Foundation report, there are around 40 million new electric bikes in China. Studies are claiming that the introduction of these electric bikes into the economy has increased traffic congestion in less developed regions of the country. As a result, many towns, including the megacities of Beijing and Guangzhou, have effectively prohibited the use of electric bikes on the roads. This is a major restraint to the electric cargo bikes market.
The COVID-19 analysis includes Pre-COVID Scenario, COVID Scenario and Post-COVID Scenario along with pricing dynamics (including pricing change during and post-pandemic comparing it with pre-COVID scenarios), demand-supply spectrum (shift in demand and supply owing to trading restrictions, lockdown and subsequent issues), government initiatives (initiatives to revive market, sector or industry by government bodies) and manufacturers strategic initiatives (what manufacturers did to mitigate the COVID issues will be covered here).
The global electric cargo bikes market is segmented based on product, battery, end user and region.
Among products, two-wheeler segment holds the largest market share. Two-wheeler electric cargo bikes are a versatile solution for last-mile deliveries. They can be used for a wide range of delivery services, including food delivery, parcel delivery, and courier services due to their compact size and maneuverability.
Moreover, some electric cargo bikes are designed to be modular, which means that the cargo compartment can be easily removed or replaced, making them ideal for businesses with changing delivery needs. The demand for two-wheeler electric cargo bikes is on the rise due to the growth of e-commerce and online shopping, which has led to an increase in the number of last-mile deliveries. Two-wheeler electric cargo bikes are ideal for these types of deliveries, as they can navigate through narrow streets and congested areas, making them more efficient than traditional delivery vehicles.
Electric cargo bikes are becoming more popular among Europeans, covering a major percentage of the global market. In Europe, according to a survey of 38 specialized producers conducted by the European cargo bike industry, the sales of cargo bikes increased by 38% in 2020 and were increased by another 66% in 2021.
A study on the most recent developments in cargo bike use cases was published by the Confederation of the European Bicycle Industry. According to their statistics, Germany is by far the largest European market, where the National Bike Association (ZIV) reported 103,000 cargo bikes sold in 2020. In Denmark, electric bike sales reached 25,000 in 2020, whereas in Netherlands and France, the sales crossed 50,000 for the second place in the business.
Furthermore, the electric cargo bikes market in Europe is expected to continue its growth trajectory in the coming years, driven by a combination of government policies, consumer demand, and technological advancements in e-bike design and manufacturing.
The major global players in the market include CERO INC, PEDEGO, RAD POWER BIKES INC, XTRACYCLE CARGO BIKES, YUBA BICYCLES LLC, Babboe, DOUZE Factory SAS, Riese & Muller GmbH, Smart Urban Mobility B.V, and BENNO BIKES LLC.
