PROPULSION SEGMENT MARKET OVERVIEW
- Japan is an Asian country that is no stranger to electric bikes. Electric power-assisted bicycles were introduced to the Japanese market, aiding the elderly by requiring less physical strength to navigate their daily life on a bicycle. The fundamental advantage of motorized bicycles, such as pedelecs, is the ease with which they may be used in daily life, such as doing errands or commuting. The majority of pedelec owners in Japan purchased their pedal-assist electric bicycles because they live in a residential area with a high number of slopes.
- Due to the island's rough geography, Japan's road system comprises more than 1.28 million kilometres of length and hundreds of bridges and tunnels. Because there are so many highways in Japan with little traffic, long-distance cycling is extremely common throughout much of the country. In 2021, pedal electric cycles (pedelecs), which make up around 12.2 percent of all new bicycle sales in Japan, will typically cost between 70 and 150 thousand Japanese yen.
- In Japan, the number of events using motorised bicycles has decreased from approximately 23.14 thousand in 2011 to fewer than 7,000 in 2020. The increased number of bicycles on the road reduces the likelihood of an accident. Rising youth interest in sports such as uphill cycling, as well as increased awareness of a healthy and active lifestyle, are expected to fuel market demand in the future years. The pedal-assist bicycle is useful for short distances, but the speed Pedelec will be the most convenient option in the near future. Furthermore, as power and speed capabilities improve, consumers will most likely gravitate toward the Speed Pedelec category in the coming years.

| Keyword | Definition |
|---|---|
| Pedal Assisted | Pedal-assist or pedelec category refers to the electric bikes that provide limited power assistance through torque-assist system and do not have throttle for varying the speed. The power from the motor gets activated upon pedaling in these bikes and reduces human efforts. |
| Throttle Assisted | Throttle-based e-bikes are equipped with the throttle assistance grip, installed on the handlebar, similarly to motorbikes. The speed can be controlled by twisting the throttle directly without the need to pedal. The throttle response directly provides power to the motor installed in the bicycles and speeds up the vehicle without paddling. |
| Speed Pedelec | Speed pedelec is e-bikes similar to pedal-assist e-bikes as they do not have throttle functionality. However, these e-bikes are integrated with an electric motor which delivers power of approximately 500 W and more. The speed limit of such e-bikes is generally 45 km/h (28 mph) in most of the countries. |
| City/Urban | The city or urban e-bikes are designed with daily commuting standards and functions to be operated within the city and urban areas. The bicycles include various features and specifications such as comfortable seats, sit upright riding posture, tires for easy grip and comfortable ride, etc. |
| Trekking | Trekking and mountain bikes are special types of e-bikes that are designed for special purposes considering the robust and rough usage of the vehicles. These bicycles include a strong frame, and wide tires for better and advanced grip and are also equipped with various gear mechanisms which can be used while riding in different terrains, rough grounded, and tough mountainous roads. |
| Cargo/Utility | The e-cargo or utility e-bikes are designed to carry various types of cargo and packages for shorter distances such as within urban areas. These bikes are usually owned by local businesses and delivery partners to deliver packages and parcels at very low operational costs. |
| Lithium-ion Battery | A Li-ion battery is a rechargeable battery, which uses lithium and carbon as its constituent materials. The Li-Ion batteries have a higher density and lesser weight than sealed lead acid batteries and provide the rider with more range per charge than other types of batteries. |
| Lead Acid Battery | A lead acid battery refers to sealed lead acid battery having a very low energy-to-weight and energy-to-volume ratio. The battery can produce high surge currents, owing to its relatively high power-to-weight ratio as compared to other rechargeable batteries. |
| Other Batteries | This includes electric bikes using nickel–metal hydroxide (NiMH), silicon, and lithium-polymer batteries. |
| Business-to-Business (B2B) | The sales of e-bikes to business customers such as urban fleet and logistics company, rental/sharing operators, last-mile fleet operators, and corporate fleet operators are considered under this category. |
| Business-to-Customers (B2C) | The sales of electric scooters and motorcycles to direct consumers is considered under this category. The consumers acquire these vehicles either directly from manufacturers or from other distributers and dealers through online and offline channel. |
| Unorganized Local OEMs | These players are small local manufacturers and assemblers of e-bikes. Most of these manufacturers import the components from China and Taiwan and assemble them locally. They offer the product at low cost in this price sensitive market which give them advantage over organized manufacturers. |
| Battery-as-a-Service | A business model in which the battery of an EV can be rented from a service provider or swapped with another battery when it runs out of charge |
| Dockless e-Bikes | Electric bikes that have self-locking mechanisms and a GPS tracking facility with an average top speed of around 15mph. These are mainly used by bike-sharing companies such as Bird, Lime, and Spin. |
| Electric Vehicle | A vehicle which uses one or more electric motors for propulsion. Includes cars, scooters, buses, trucks, motorcycles, and boats. This term includes all-electric vehicles and hybrid electric vehicles |
| Plug-in EV | An electric vehicle that can be externally charged and generally includes all-electric vehicles as well as plug-in hybrids. In this report we use the term for all-electric vehicles to differentiate them from plug-in hybrid electric vehicles. |
| Lithium-Sulphur Battery | A rechargeable battery that replaces the liquid or polymer electrolyte found in current lithium-ion batteries with sulfur. They have more capacity than Li-ion batteries. |
| Micromobility | Micromobility is one of the many modes of transport involving very-light-duty vehicles to travel short distances. These means of transportation include bikes, e-scooters, e-bikes, mopeds, and scooters. Such vehicles are used on a sharing basis for covering short distances, usually five miles or less. |
| Low Speed Electric Vehicls (LSEVs) | They are low speed (usually less than 25 kmph) light vehicles that do not have an internal combustion engine, and solely use electric energy for propulsion. |
