South Korea E-bike Market Trends
South Korea's E-Bike adoption rates show a significant increase, indicating a rapidly growing market and consumer interest.
- The South Korean e-bike market is mainly driven by the application of e-bikes in micro-mobility services. The use of micro-mobility services has grown strongly since 2018 due to the high availability, low pricing, ease of functioning of such services, and less vandalism. Micro-mobility offers a low-cost travel option, attracting commuters. For instance, the average per-km cost of a micro-mobility service in the country is USD 0.15, compared to USD 1 for a car ride booked via a mobility-as-a-service (MaaS) platform. The low-cost commute option is motivating consumers to choose a suitable micro-mobility mode for first- and last-mile connectivity.
- During the COVID-19 pandemic, bicycle usage among people rose by more than 65% in Seoul as commuters avoided public transportation due to fear of transmission, thus boosting the market for e-bikes in South Korea. The number of bike-sharing firms has grown in recent years with the growing need for last-mile connectivity, particularly in metropolitan areas. Many well-known venture capitalists and manufacturers are investing in micro-mobility businesses, allowing service providers to expand their operations. Lime, Wind Mobility, and Beam Mobility are among the major micro-mobility businesses that garnered significant investment. Sequoia Capital, SoftBank Vision Fund, and DST Global are among the leading venture capitalists investing in start-ups.

South Korea shows a steady increase in the percentage of commuters traveling 5-15 km daily, indicating consistent travel habits.
- The demand for bicycles in the country is gradually growing. However, the number of people commuting a distance of 5-15 km is still relatively low as most people prefer to travel via buses and other modes of transport. In 2019, fewer people chose to commute via bicycles within 5-15 km. However, in 2020, the number of people using bicycles to commute 5-15 km increased as they started exercising and going to nearby places, such as markets, during the pandemic-induced lockdown. Such factors increased the demand for bicycles in South Korea in 2020.
- The restrictions and lockdowns imposed to combat the COVID-19 pandemic positively impacted bicycle sales due to people's avoidance of public transportation and rental services, which increased the demand for bicycles. People started using bicycles to travel short distances, due to which the country witnessed a significant increase in the number of commuters traveling a distance of 5-15 km in 2021.
- Currently, many people are using bicycles to commute 5-15 km to their workplaces and markets. The number of people commuting to work by bicycle increased in 2022. It is expected to continue to increase during the forecast period, further boosting improvements in bicycle infrastructure and bicycle lanes in South Korea.

| 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. |
