Market Overview

Electric buses, often known as e-buses, are becoming more popular as a mode of public transit mainly because of their green credentials over regular fuel-powered buses. Electric motors replace ICE engines in E-buses. E-bus motors are powered by batteries. Electric buses drastically reduce the emission of greenhouse gases and airborne pollutants, making them a viable urban transit option. The electric bus market is being driven by consumer demand for fuel-effective, high-performance, low-emission buses, government vehicle pollution laws, and falling battery prices. Electric buses are gaining traction as an alternative strategy for combating air pollution and assisting in making the switch to greener, more efficient public transportation networks. The growing interest in the negative environmental effects of vehicles powered by fossil fuels has driven governing bodies, city planners, and transportation departments in North America to put more emphasis on promoting the use of electric buses in order to mitigate carbon footprints and improve urban air quality. Government programs like subsidies, funding, and tax breaks have been critical in supporting the growing popularity of electric buses. Furthermore, electric buses have lower operating costs than regular diesel or typical fuel-injected buses. Whereas the initial purchase price may be greater, electric buses typically have reduced maintenance and operating expenses, resulting in a more cost-effective option in the longer term.

Driving Factors

In North America, the electric bus market went through rapid expansion and demand. Electric buses have grown in popularity largely because of their ability to lower carbon emissions, increase air quality, and minimize transit agency running expenses. The switch to electric buses was fueled by environmental concerns as well as advances in battery manufacturing, which made electric buses a feasible option for transportation networks. In addition to the rise of electric buses arises the necessity for charging infrastructure. Any major progress on this front is expected to have a significant effect on the future development of the electric bus market. Furthermore, ongoing breakthroughs in battery innovation, such as the emergence of solid-state battery technology or advancements in lithium-ion batteries, might significantly extend the driving range and minimize the time required for charging electric buses, making them more tempting for widespread adoption.

Market Segment

• In 2022, the battery electric vehicle (BEV) segment accounted for the largest revenue share of more than 71.8% over the forecast period.

Based on the vehicle type, the North America Electric Bus Market is segmented into Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV), Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV), and Fuel Cell Electric Vehicle (FCEV). Among these, the battery electric vehicle segment has the largest revenue share of 71.8% over the forecast period. The battery-powered bus is a cheaper and more effective option than zero- or low-emission vehicles. When contrasted with conventional buses, BEVs are more efficient. When compared to buses fueled by fuel or gasoline, the battery-powered bus enables more rapid driving. BEVs are simpler to operate and cheaper to charge than diesel or gasoline-powered buses.

• In 2022, the intercity segment is influencing the largest CAGR over the forecast period.

On the basis of application, the North America Electric Bus Market is segmented into intercity and intracity. Among these segments, the intercity segment dominates the largest market share over the forecast period. The rise in popularity of intercity e-buses in the electric bus sector can be attributed to the growing need for public transportation and a growing proportion of people commuting to jobs, schools, and colleges around urban and rural areas.

• In 2022, the public segment dominated with more than 77.2% market share over the forecast period.

Based on the end-use, the North America Electric Bus Market is segmented into public and private. The public segment has captured the highest market share in the North America Electric Bus Market. The segment's high proportion can be due to rising transportation demand and government initiatives to reduce air and noise pollution and reliance on fossil fuels. In addition, a growing population, escalating greenhouse gas emissions, and altering consumer inclination toward public transportation are all driving market expansion.
