The global electric vehicle market reached a volume of nearly 31,061.20 thousand units in 2023. The market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 13.2% between 2024 and 2032 and reach around 1,01,177.60 thousand units by 2032.
Government policies such as the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) launched by the US government in August 2022 and China’s 14th Five-Year Plan released in December 2021, aid the manufacturing and rapid adoption of EVs. Prominent automotive manufacturers such as Ford, General Motors, and Honda are focusing on the production of electric vehicles and increasing the number and variety of electrified models offered.
Some of the factors driving the electric vehicle market growth are the development of EV charging infrastructure and the decreasing cost of lithium-ion batteries. Publicly accessible chargers are increasingly being installed by governments to provide convenience and accessibility for vehicle owners. EV chargers, especially those located along motorways, enable longer journeys and can help address range anxiety, a barrier to EV adoption.

April 2024
BYD launched its new pure electric vehicle, the BYD SEAGULL, in Colombia. The vehicle, which made its debut at the Colombia Auto Show last year, has been highly anticipated among local consumers.
Favourable government policies promoting EV adoption
Governments globally are promoting the adoption of EVs to meet their emissions reduction targets. Government policies such as the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) launched by the US government, Alternative Fuels Infrastructure Regulation (AFIR) in Europe, China’s 14th 5-Year Plan and Production Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme by the Indian Government aid the adoption of EVs.
Advancement in EV technology
The incorporation of AI with self-driving features have increased the functionality of EVs. Vehicle control software enhances vehicle performance and safety features. Automakers are also advancing battery technology, and developing solid-state batteries that have higher energy density than lithium-ion batteries.
Expansion of the public charging infrastructure
Governments are strengthening the public charging infrastructure to enable widespread adoption of EVs. In 2023, the global public charging stock increased by over 40% compared to the previous year. At the end of 2023, fast chargers represented over 35% of public charging stock.
Innovation in battery technology
Solid-state batteries, sodium-ion (Na-ion) batteries, and lithium-sulphur batteries with higher energy storage are enhancing the range of EVs. The popularity of LFP batteries among Chinese manufacturers due to their low cost is further aiding the market growth.
EV manufacturers are using lightweight materials, including carbon fibre composites and aluminium alloys, to lower energy consumption and prolong battery life. A 10% decrease in vehicle weight can increase the power efficiency of the vehicle by 6-8%.
Furthermore, by 2050, the European Union aims to achieve net-zero emissions. This is expected to increase the adoption of EVs over ICE vehicles. The European Commission aims to install 3.5 million charging points by 2030. Additionally, by 2026, the U.S. government aims to deploy 500,000 EV public chargers. By 2030, 64% of all lightweight vehicles in the USA are expected to be powered by lithium-ion batteries. The introduction of such favourable government initiatives is anticipated to aid the electric vehicle market development in the coming years.

Global Electric Vehicle Market Report and Forecast 2024-2032 offers a detailed analysis of the market based on the following segments:
Market Breakup by Type:
Market Breakup by Vehicle Type:
Market Breakup by Region:
Battery electric vehicles are expected to hold a significant market share due to their increasing average range
The average range of battery electric vehicles increased from 79 miles (127 km) to 217 miles (350 km) between 2010 and 2021, increasing their adoption substantially. Such vehicles offer high efficiency as they are run entirely on a battery-powered electric drivetrain. As of February 2024, the United States boasted more than 61,000 publicly accessible electric vehicle charging stations with Level 2 fast chargers, increasing from 29,000 in 2020. In May 2024, Jeep announced the launch of Jeep® Wagoneer S, the brand's first global battery-electric vehicle (BEV) in the U.S. and Canada.
Hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) are gaining popularity in short-range trips due to their exceptional fuel efficiency and MPG. In 2022, non-plug-in hybrid cars accounted for 21% of total car imports and 13% of car exports in the EU. Governments across the globe are providing tax credits and incentives for HEV buyers, which is expected to further increase their adoption in the forecast period.
The average range of plug-in hybrid vehicles is from 10 to 30 miles per charge, with some models of vehicles reaching nearly 50 miles using all-electric power. Governments across the globe are providing incentives to support clean mobility. In the United States, the federal government offers up to USD 7,500 tax credits for consumers who purchase electric plug-in vehicles. Additionally, in Germany, plug-in hybrid electric vehicles are funded with a maximum of EUR 6,750.
