The global electric cars market is segmented - 1) By Type: Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV), Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV), Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV) 2) By Battery Type: Lithium-Iron-Phosphate (LFP), Lithium–Nickel–Manganese Cobalt Oxide (Li-NMC), Lithium–Titanate oxide (LTO) battery, Lithium–Nickel–Cobalt–Aluminum oxide (NCA) battery, Nickel–metal hydride (NiMH) battery, Lead Scid Battery 3) By Application: Home Use, Commercial Use The global electric cars market size will grow from $278.75 billion in 2022 to $365.72 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 31.2%. The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term. The war between these two countries has led to economic sanctions on multiple countries, a surge in commodity prices, and supply chain disruptions, causing inflation across goods and services and affecting many markets across the globe. The market size of the global electric cars is expected to grow to $1,083.65 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 31.2%. The growing demand for electric vehicles is driving the growth of electric cars market. Electric cars are one of the fastest-growing segments of the electric vehicle market. According to the IEA, in 2021, electric car (including fully electric and plug-in hybrids) sales doubled compared to previous years to nearly 6.6 million. According to Forbes, electric vehicles (EVs) will surge to 57%, which is more than half of global passenger car sales by 2040. The major companies in the automobile industry, such as Tesla, BMW, Volkswagen, and others, are expected to release around 200 models of electric vehicles. Electric vehicles don’t use fuel or gas, and they are more economical than other vehicles. The demand for an electric vehicle is growing because of its low maintenance, less carbon emissions, convenient charging, less noise from the engine, and higher fuel costs. Major players in the electric cars market are Toyota, BMW, BYD, Tesla, BMW, Volkswagen, General Motors, BAiC Motors, SAIC, and Daimler AG. The lack of standardization of charging infrastructure is slowing down the electric car market. The charging infrastructure is a charging point for battery electric vehicles (BEV), plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEV), hybrid electric vehicles (HEV), and fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEV) available in every region. According to McKinsey’s report, there will be an estimated 120 million electric vehicle units on the road by 2030. The demand for electric vehicles is rising due to environmental concerns and health hazards. The sudden shift to electric vehicles in many regions has led to a lack of charging infrastructure. In India, Tesla, Mahindra, Audi, and other international OEMs are expected to launch 10 new electric vehicle models by 2021. However, many countries don’t have proper charging infrastructure for electric vehicles due to higher up-front capital, higher operating costs, and low utilization of electric vehicles. This factor is likely to challenge the growth of this electric cars market. The development of wireless charging facilities for electric vehicles is the greatest opportunity for both OEMs and end-users. Wireless charging enables charging of an electric vehicle without any inconvenience of finding the right cable connector at the charging point and/or stopping by at any charging station. Wireless charging uses dynamic and inductive charging technologies where the electricity is transferred from one magnetic coil in the charger to a second magnetic coil connected to a car. Because OEMs and technology companies discovered that a wireless charging system is far more convenient than a plug-in system for charging an electric vehicle. Qualcomm's technologies are continuously working on its wireless charging system called Qualcomm Halo that uses dynamic technology that helps to charge the electric vehicle while driving. Therefore, the wireless charging system has huge scope in the future to electrify vehicles all over the world. In June 2022, Club Car, an American manufacturer of golf, consumer, and utility vehicles, acquired Garia A/S, a manufacturer of electric street low-speed vehicles, for an undisclosed amount.
