Since gasoline is a fossil fuel, it is not a sustainable energy source and will eventually run out. To enable sustainable growth, alternative fuel sources must be created and used. Electric van is employed, which are more cost-effective than traditional vans and do not require gasoline. While gas-powered vans can only convert roughly 17–21% of the energy stored in gasoline, electric van can convert more than 50% of the electrical energy from the grid into electricity at the wheels. Due to growing gas and diesel oil prices in recent years, there has been a surge in demand for emission-free electric vans. Additionally, the transport industry is responsible for around a quarter of all greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, according to the United Nations Environment Program (UNEP). As a result, many governments throughout the world have started initiatives to deploy electric van to improve the sustainability of their urban transportation system. In the following years, it's anticipated that the introduction of electric van would transform mass transit systems all over the world. As a result, the market is expected to rise at a faster rate during the forecast period due to rising demand for emission-free, high-performance electric vans. Thus, this factor is driving the market CAGR.
Furthermore, over the past ten years, the price of electric vehicle batteries has decreased as a result of technological improvements and widespread battery manufacture. Due to the fact that batteries account for nearly 30% to 40% of the overall cost of electric vans, this has caused the price of electric van to decrease. For example, the cost of an electric vehicle battery in 2010 was approximately $1,100 per kWh. A research claims that by 2020, the cost of an electric vehicle battery will have dropped to about $137 per kWh, while in China, the cost is only $100 per kWh. This is attributable to improvements in battery technology as well as lower battery manufacturing costs, cheaper cathode material prices, and higher production volumes. By 2030, the cost of electric vehicle batteries is anticipated to drop to about $40–60 per kWh, which will significantly lower its price and bring their cost closer to that of standard gasoline-powered vans. In the not-too-distant future, this will result in widespread use of electric vehicles due to the rising need for low-pollution transportation.
Additionally, globally, governments are putting pressure on automakers to invest in the development of electric van and reduce CO2 emissions from the use of diesel fuel. The creation of electric battery vehicles has been encouraged by the government through various programmes and plans, which is anticipated to fuel market expansion. Thus, governments worldwide offer tax breaks and other incentives to encourage the purchase of electric vehicles. Some national governments have made electric vehicles free from paying tolls on the highways. For instance, the Indian government intends to lower the Goods and Services Tax (GST) on electric vehicles from 12% to 5% in order to hasten the adoption of electric vehicles. The governments are contemplating a complete transition from conventional vans to electric van due to strict emission rules. For instance, the UK government declared in November 2020 that all brand-new gasoline and diesel cars and vans will be phased out by 2030 and that the entire fleet of government cars and vans would be 100% zero emission vehicles by 2027. Thusff, it is anticipated that this aspect will accelerate electric van market revenue globally.
The electric van market segmentation has been segmented by propulsion type into Battery Electric Vehicles, Hybrid Electric Vehicles, Fuel Cell Electric Vehicles and Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles. The battery electric vehicles segment dominated the electric van market data in 2021 and is projected to be the faster-growing segment during the forecast period, 2022-2030. Due to its advantages, such as zero emissions and no pollution, the battery electric van is in high demand, and as a result, this market is anticipated to develop at the greatest CAGR throughout the forecast period. During the projection period, this will be the primary driver of market expansion for battery worldwide.
The electric van market segmentation, based on vehicle type, Short And Mid-range Electric Vans and Long-range Electric Vans. The short and mid-range electric vans segment dominated the electric van market revenue in 2021 and is projected to be the faster-growing segment during the forecast period, 2022-2030 due to rising usage of limited range electric vans by end-users, notably in last-mile deliveries. Small-size vans are included in this segment; they are crucial for intercity or intracity freight transportation. Because these vehicles are reasonably priced and economical, this market segment is anticipated to rise in terms of revenue throughout the forecast period.
