Electric Commercial Truck Market

Global Electric Commercial Truck Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report by Propulsion (Plug-In Hybrid, Fuel Cell Electric, and Battery Electric), and by Application (Logistics, Municipal, Construction, Mining, and Others) Forecast Period (2021-2027)

Published: Jan 2022 | Report Code: OMR2025558 | Category : Automotive and Transportation | Delivery Format: /

The global electric commercial truck market is anticipated to grow at a significant CAGR of 22.3% during the forecast period. Due to growing environmental concerns, governments across the globe are focusing on enacting emission norms and laws to reduce vehicle emissions. The government norms and laws are targeting to reduce nitrogen oxides (NOx), and carbon dioxide (CO2) in the air. Increasing focus of the government on emission-free vehicles would drive the adoption of electric trucks in various industries. 

Additionally, government pressure on vehicle manufactures to reduce carbon emissions caused by fuel and greenhouse gas emissions, pushing manufacturers to develop electric trucks, which will fuel the electric commercial bus market. For instance, in December 2021, EPA finalized Regulations for Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Passenger Cars and Trucks. The final standards would achieve significant GHG emissions reductions along with reductions in other criteria pollutants. The rule would result in substantial public health and welfare benefits while providing consumers with savings from lower fuel costs.

However, the lack of charging infrastructure for electric trucks and lack of training to customers and dealers to operate them with adequate knowledge regarding their operations acting as an obstacle for the electric truck market.

Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Global Electric Commercial Truck Market

The global pandemic of COVID-19 has affected a major block of the population. It has affected the dynamics and growth of several industries. Major economies went to closing factories, offices under lockdown results in the shortage of workers and fear of recession, declined revenue as well as the growth of the electric commercial market. However, incentives for the adoption of cleaner and zero-emission vehicles, and reduction in the fuel and maintenance costs will drive demand in the future for the electric commercial market. 

Segmental Outlook 

The global electric commercial truck market has been segmented based on electric propulsion and applications. Based on electric propulsion, the market is further segmented into a plug-in hybrid, fuel cell electric, and battery electric. Based on applications, the market is sub-segmented into logistics, municipal, construction, mining, and others.

The Battery Electric Segment Holds the Major Share in the Global Electric Commercial Truck Market

Among all segments, the battery-electric truck segment accounts for the major share in the electric commercial market during the forecast period. Due to the increased battery life and energy density of batteries, the segment is continuously driving the electric commercial market. Additionally, decreasing battery cost is also an advantage to the battery-electric truck segment. For Instance, in June 2021, Mercedes launched Actros EV heavy truck. 

Depending on the version, there are three or four battery packs each with a capacity of around 105 kWh. With a maximum capacity of 420 kWh, a range of up to 400km (250 miles) is realistic. The EV truck can be charged with up to 160 kW – when connected to a regular 400A DC charging station, the three battery packs need about an hour to charge from 20% to 80%.

Regional Outlooks

The global electric commercial truck market is further segmented based on geography including North America (the US, and Canada), Europe (Italy, Spain, Germany, France, UK, and Others), Asia-Pacific (India, China, Japan, South Korea, and Others), and the Rest of the World (the Middle East & Africa, and Latin America).

The Europe Region to Have Significant Market Share in the Global Electric Commercial Truck Market

The European region held a significant market share for the electric commercial truck market during the forecast period. UK, Germany, Italy, Spain, France, and others are gearing up the market. Due to strict norms and regulations regarding emission by European government is encouraging the electric commercial vehicle market. The continuous significant initiative by the European government to use electric trucks and vehicles is helping the market to grow rapidly. For instance, the EU aimed to be climate-neutral by 2050 – an economy with net-zero greenhouse gas emissions. The transition to a climate-neutral society is both an urgent challenge and an opportunity to build a better future for all.

Market Players Outlook

The major companies serving the global electric commercial truck market include AB Volvo, Daimler AG, Dongfeng Motor Corp., BYD Company Ltd., PACCAR Inc., Scania CV AB, Nikola Corp., Tesla Inc., Workhouse Group, and others. The market players are considerably contributing to the market growth by the adoption of various strategies including mergers & acquisitions, collaborations, funding, and new product launches, to stay competitive in the market. For instance, in October 2019, Kenworth and Toyota Motor North America collaborated to develop 10 zero-emission Kenworth T680s powered by Toyota hydrogen fuel cell electric powertrains. PACCAR will showcase zero-emission vehicles at the North American Commercial Vehicle Show in Atlanta this week. Kenworth has the PACCAR lead in hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicles and Peterbilt has the lead in battery electric vehicles.
