The medium-duty and heavy-duty truck and bus markets in the US are expected to show strong recovery following the major dip in 2020 due to the dire impacts of the COVID-19 crisis on production and sales. However, the crisis is forecast to have a relatively lower impact on the electric truck and bus markets. The electric bus segment shows a slight d...

Frost & Sullivan expects over 238,000 electric HDTs to be in long-haul operation in the United States and Europe by 2030. The total energy demand for these trucks will likely be about 79 TWh. To cater to this demand, 150 kW 1 MW chargers will become the predominant charging solutions for long-haul operation, while 350 kW 1 MW chargers will gain ado...

Globally, incentives to purchase electric trucks and buses in the form of subsidies, tax cuts, or even penalties related to internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles can go a long way in making electric vehicles (EVs) attractive to fleets by considerably lowering the acquisition cost. Incentives also give original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) pro...

With the framing of stringent emission norms and strong regulatory push, the automotive industry is fully prepared to shift toward electric powertrains. Although automakers have been investing in various alternative powertrain technologies to achieve low/zero emission, Electric Vehicles (EV) look promising for OEMs. They and battery manufacturers a...

Currently, OEMs build electric light commercial vehicles (eLCVs) on various platforms, including converting/modifying internal combustion engine (ICE)-based vehicles, using flexible multi-energy platforms, and starting from scratch on dedicated electric vehicle (EV) skateboard platforms. ICE-based platforms may be more suitable to convert an existi...

With the growing electrification of vehicles across the globe, there has been increased demand for electric vehicles, especially electric two-wheelers, as they are the fastest growing transport mode in most developing countries. Further, the COVID-19 situation has also forced commuters to avoid public transport and transition toward personal mobili...

Electric trucks are seeing rapid adoption globally. Although they do not emit CO2 during operations, the electricity for charging trucks emits CO2 during generation. Similarly, to manufacture the Li-ion battery, from the mining stages to final assembly, the quantum of CO2 emitted is high and needs to be tracked and addressed by overcoming geopoliti...

Frost & Sullivan expects permanent magnet motors (PMMs) to dominate the electric and hybrid vehicle (xEV) motors market. PMMs will constitute over 90% of the total electric traction motor market by 2020. Uncertain rare element (RE) magnet supply will remain a challenge for PMM cost optimization. The 40 to 70 kW range will be the most used range of ...

This study offers a strategic overview of Tesla to identify and analyze the factors actively electrifying its product lineup. Tesla is accelerating its growth in the pure battery electric vehicle (BEV) market by catering to the luxury and mass-market segments, introducing new EV technologies, and manufacturing EV components in-house, such as integr...
