PROPULSION SEGMENT MARKET OVERVIEW
- Initially, the COVID-19 pandemic slowed the expansion of the e-bike sector. However, with the increased importance of personal vehicles over public transport during the pandemic, consumers in Switzerland began to shift toward e-bikes as a daily commuting option. Individuals are also looking for a single-person commute that saves fuel costs while avoiding traffic.
- The local governments in the country are providing subsidies to increase the sales of e-bikes. For instance, in Geneva, the maximum purchase price of an e-bike is CHF 250 (maximum 50% purchase price), while that of a cargo bike is CHF 500 (maximum 10% of the price).
- New companies are looking to enter this fragmented market, while established players are adopting various growth strategies, such as collaboration and expansion, to increase their revenues. For instance, in June 2021, following the success of its pilot project with the city of Zug, AirBie collaborated with Swiss e-bike manufacturer Flyer AG to start an open-access e-bike sharing service in Zug, Baar, and Cham. Thus, due to such factors, the demand for e-bikes in the country has been growing rapidly and may continue to grow over the forecast period.
Switzerland E-bike Market Trends
Switzerland exhibits a high and steadily increasing E-Bike adoption rate, reflecting a mature market and strong consumer demand.
- While the country witnessed significant growth in the sales of bicycles over the past few years, in recent years, people have started shifting toward e-bikes, with consumers over the age of 40 highly contributing to the growth in the demand for e-bikes. Effortless riding in a given range, exercise benefits, and the ability to save time during traffic congestion have increased the adoption of e-bicycles in the country. These factors, along with reduced fuel costs and eco-friendly rides, accelerated the e-bicycle adoption rate in Switzerland in 2019.
- The COVID-19 pandemic positively affected the bicycle industry in Switzerland. Consumers not wishing to use public or rented transportation to maintain social distancing changed their commuting methods and invested in e-bikes, which are among the most convenient and affordable options among daily modes of commuting to offices and nearby places. Such factors further accelerated the adoption rate of e-bikes in 2020 across Switzerland.
- The drop in COVID-19 cases and the easing of government regulations saw the resumption of business operations and the removal of trade barriers, which resulted in good growth in the sales of e-bicycles in the country in 2021. The unveiling of new products and models with advanced features such as long battery life, good warranty offers, cashback, and discount schemes are projected to increase the adoption rate of e-bikes during the forecast period in Switzerland.
Switzerland maintains a stable percentage of commuters traveling 5-15 km daily, indicating consistent commuting distances.
- Switzerland is highly popular for bicyclers and the country has witnessed a significant number of bicycle users over the past few years. However, most of people traveling to various places such as offices, businesses, or market areas opted for other means of transport as approximately 50% of the population opted for cars in 2020, and close to 10% of people opted for the bicycle (including e-bikes) to travel from 5 to 15 kilometers.
- The Swiss bicycle market was dramatically impacted by worries about COVID-19 and the pandemic wave. People chose to walk or bike instead of taking public transportation to work. After the pandemic's effects, fewer people used public transportation, which led to an increase in daily bicycle commuters of by 0.2% in 2021 over 2020. Additionally, the developments in e-bikes with advanced features such as longer battery lives encouraged more people to choose bicycles, which led to an increase in commuters who made trips of 5 to 15 kilometres in 2021 over 2020 throughout Switzerland.
- Since the limitations were lifted and the pandemic wave was relaxed, people have started commuting by bicycle as a habit. Within a radius of 5 to 15 kilometres, a significant number of people now go to work each day by bicycle between offices, businesses, and local markets. The number of people riding bicycles to work is increasing due to health benefits, producing no emissions, and saves you time by avoiding traffic. In Switzerland, these factors are expected to reach 63.6% in commuter travel between 5 and 15 kilometres during the forecast period.

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. |
