Segments - Mild Hybrid Vehicles Market by Capacity (48V, Less Than 48V, and Above 48V), Vehicle Type (Commercial Vehicles and Passenger Cars), Battery Type (Lead Acid, Lithium-Ion, and Others), and Region (Asia Pacific, North America, Latin America, Europe, and Middle East & Africa) - Global Industry Analysis, Growth, Share, Size, Trends, and Forecast 2023 – 2031
The global mild hybrid vehicles market size was USD 72 Bn in 2022 and is likely to reach USD 334 Bn by 2031, expanding at a CAGR of 18.6% during 2023–2031. The market growth is attributed to the increased demand for fuel-efficient cars and government regulations to minimize CO2 emissions.
A hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) uses both an internal combustion engine (ICE) and an electric motor for propulsion. Mild hybrid cars provide an efficient powertrain option that improves driving comfort and efficiency while lowering engine load. An internal combustion engine, a 48-volt battery, an electric motor, and a converter make up a mild hybrid car.
Mild hybrids are largely conventional automobiles with engines that can be turned off in the event of braking, coasting, or a car stop, but can be restarted cleanly and swiftly. The use of a bigger motor, which spins the engine to operational RPM levels before fuel injection, causes the engine to restart.
Mild hybrid cars offer an easily accessible, cost-effective, and consumer-friendly platform for fulfilling demanding standards for safer, cleaner, and more fuel-efficient automobiles. However, due to strict measures to reduce carbon emissions and hazardous pollutants from exhaust gases, as well as improved powertrain performance, electrification in cars is inclined to produce considerably over the next decade.
The global mild hybrid vehicles market report has up-to-date insights that help in formulating a strategic roadmap about the estimated market scenario and performance during 2023 to 2031.
Governments all over the world have executed various policies and incentives to boost the use of vehicles in the direction of transitioning entirely to electric vehicles, as part of their vision for net-zero carbon emission in a targeted duration which is expected to drive the growth of the market. Furthermore, the global mild hybrid vehicle industry is being fueled by newly released vehicle types with improved driving experiences is the main factor propelling the market growth during the forecast period.
The additional torque and engines in the mild hybrid vehicle are expected to restrain the market growth. The affordable cost of a car and the simple nature of the car attracts the end-users, which can hinder market growth. A mild hybrid vehicle's powertrain is fairly complicated. Moreover, as a result, the electric motor requires a larger battery to generate the desired power output, and these additional elements increase the vehicle's weight, and the price is expected to hamper the market expansion.
The high primary cost of the mild hybrid vehicle is a key challenge that can impede the growth of the mild hybrid vehicles in the coming years. However, electric vehicles claim high investments in spite of several incentives provided by the government all over the world. Furthermore, mild hybrid system vehicles provided optimum fuel efficiency, which is a great opportunity for the owners and is expected to boost the growth of the market.
