Spain's strategic focus on diversifying light commercial vehicle types will boost efficiency and meet the specific needs of businesses in transitioning to a more sustainable economy
- The Spanish light commercial vehicles (LCV) market boasts a diverse range of vehicle types tailored to meet the specific needs of different sectors. These include panel vans, pickup trucks, and small trucks. Panel vans reign supreme in the Spanish LCV market, owing to their adaptability and versatility across a wide range of commercial activities. Their maneuverability in narrow urban streets and ability to securely transport goods, especially for deliveries and service providers, make them highly sought-after. The growth in e-commerce has further fueled the demand for panel vans, highlighting the need for efficient urban logistics solutions.
- Pickup trucks, though occupying a niche, play a crucial role in the market. They find favor among businesses in agriculture, construction, and utilities, owing to their durability and ability to handle diverse terrains. Their versatility, coupled with off-road capabilities, makes them indispensable for businesses operating in rural areas or those requiring transportation to less accessible sites.
- Small trucks, offering higher payload capacities and more space than panel vans or pickups, are a lifeline for logistics, construction, and trade-focused small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). While sustainability is gaining traction across segments, the introduction of electric and hybrid small trucks is still limited. Factors like cost and charging infrastructure pose challenges to their wider adoption.
Spain Light Commercial Vehicles Market Trends
Increasing demand for electric vehicles in Spain is driven by government subsidies and initiatives
- The Spanish automobile industry has been growing continuously over the past few years, and the demand for electric vehicles has grown significantly in recent years, especially after 2020. Various government practices in terms of rebates, such as in March 2021, the government of Spain expanded the budget for the Moves II subsidy program from EUR 100 million to EUR 120 million. Under the program, the light commercial vehicle will be subsidized by EUR 3,630, and heavy commercial vehicle buyers are eligible for a subsidy of EUR 6,000. As a result, electric commercial vehicles witnessed an annual growth of 51.06% in 2021 compared to 2020 across Spain.
- The electric car industry in Spain has also grown tremendously in recent years. In 2020, the government of Spain announced a target of having at least 5 million electric vehicles by 2030. The impact of government norms and subsidies offered has contributed to the growth in the sales of electric cars. Such factors have encouraged consumers to opt for EVs. As a result, the country witnessed a growth in the sale of electric cars by 17.90% in 2022 over 2021.
- The government and various companies are making efforts through various projects that are going to accelerate electric mobility in Spain. In March 2023, the government introduced the Moves 3 plan in Europe, including Spain. The government offered subsidies of EUR 4,500 (without scrapping) and EUR 7,000 (with scrapping) for electric vehicles; the plan was offered until December 31, 2023. Such offerings are expected to accelerate the demand for electric cars in Spain between 2024 and 2030.

Market Definition
- Vehicle Type - The category covers light commercial vehicle.
- Vehicle Body Type - This includes Light Commercial Pick-up Trucks and Light Commercial Vans.
- Fuel Category - The category includes various fuel types such as Gasoline, Diesel, LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas), CNG (Compressed Natural Gas), HEV (Hybrid Electric Vehicles), PHEV (Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles), BEV (Battery Electric Vehicles), and FCEV (Fuel Cell Electric Vehicles)
Keyword | Definition |
---|---|
Electric Vehicle (EV) | A vehicle which uses one or more electric motors for propulsion. Includes cars, buses, and trucks. This term includes all-electric vehicles or battery electric vehicles and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles. |
BEV | A BEV relies completely on a battery and a motor for propulsion. The battery in the vehicle must be charged by plugging it into an outlet or public charging station. BEVs do not have an ICE and hence are pollution-free. They have a low cost of operation and reduced engine noise as compared to conventional fuel engines. However, they have a shorter range and higher prices than their equivalent gasoline models. |
PEV | A plug-in electric vehicle is an electric vehicle that can be externally charged and generally includes all-electric vehicles as well as plug-in hybrids. |
Plug-in Hybrid EV | A vehicle that can be powered either by an ICE or an electric motor. In contrast to normal hybrid EVs, they can be charged externally. |
Internal combustion engine | An engine in which the burning of fuels occurs in a confined space called a combustion chamber. Usually run with gasoline/petrol or diesel. |
Hybrid EV | A vehicle powered by an ICE in combination with one or more electric motors that use energy stored in batteries. These are continually recharged with power from the ICE and regenerative braking. |
Commercial Vehicles | Commercial vehicles are motorized road vehicles designed for transporting people or goods. The category includes light commercial vehicles (LCVs) and medium and heavy-duty vehicles (M&HCV). |
Passenger Vehicles | Passenger cars are electric motor– or engine-driven vehicles with at least four wheels. These vehicles are used for the transport of passengers and comprise no more than eight seats in addition to the driver’s seat. |
Light Commercial Vehicles | Commercial vehicles that weigh less than 6,000 lb (Class 1) and in the range of 6,001–10,000 lb (Class 2) are covered under this category. |
M&HDT | Commercial vehicles that weigh in the range of 10,001–14,000 lb (Class 3), 14,001–16,000 lb (Class 4), 16,001–19,500 lb (Class 5), 19,501–26,000 lb (Class 6), 26,001–33,000 lb (Class 7) and above 33,001 lb (Class 8) are covered under this category. |
Bus | A mode of transportation that typically refers to a large vehicle designed to carry passengers over long distances. This includes transit bus, school bus, shuttle bus, and trolleybuses. |
Diesel | It includes vehicles that use diesel as their primary fuel. A diesel engine vehicle have a compression-ignited injection system rather than the spark-ignited system used by most gasoline vehicles. In such vehicles, fuel is injected into the combustion chamber and ignited by the high temperature achieved when gas is greatly compressed. |
Gasoline | It includes vehicles that use gas/petrol as their primary fuel. A gasoline car typically uses a spark-ignited internal combustion engine. In such vehicles, fuel is injected into either the intake manifold or the combustion chamber, where it is combined with air, and the air/fuel mixture is ignited by the spark from a spark plug. |
LPG | It includes vehicles that use LPG as their primary fuel. Both dedicated and bi-fuel LPG vehicles are considered under the scope of the study. |
CNG | It includes vehicles that use CNG as their primary fuel. These are vehicles that operate like gasoline-powered vehicles with spark-ignited internal combustion engines. |
HEV | All the electric vehicles that use batteries and an internal combustion engine (ICE) as their primary source for propulsion are considered under this category. HEVs generally use a diesel-electric powertrain and are also known as hybrid diesel-electric vehicles. An HEV converts the vehicle momentum (kinetic energy) into electricity that recharges the battery when the vehicle slows down or stops. The battery of HEV cannot be charged using plug-in devices. |
PHEV | PHEVs are powered by a battery as well as an ICE. The battery can be charged through either regenerative breaking using the ICE or by plugging into some external charging source. PHEVs have a better range than BEVs but are comparatively less eco-friendly. |
Hatchback | These are compact-sized cars with a hatch-type door provided at the rear end. |
Sedan | These are usually two- or four-door passenger cars, with a separate area provided at the rear end for luggage. |
SUV | Popularly known as SUVs, these cars come with four-wheel drive, and usually have high ground clearance. These cars can also be used as off-road vehicles. |
MPV | These are multi-purpose vehicles (also called minivans) designed to carry a larger number of passengers. They carry between five and seven people and have room for luggage too. They are usually taller than the average family saloon car, to provide greater headroom and ease of access, and they are usually front-wheel drive. |
