Hybrid and Electric Cars - US - January 2014: latest Market Research Report Published By ResearchMoz.us
Albany, NY (PRWEB) January 31, 2014 -- The hybrid and electric car market is growing at breakneck speeds, but there’s some concern that this is mostly driven by government distortions, vis-à-vis the new CAFE program and by the California Air Resources Board. Without robust market demand, this segment, particularly plug-in hybrids and all-electric vehicles, remains at the whims of political fancy. With the gap between what consumers are willing to pay and what hybrid and electrics actually cost remaining wide, affordability remains the key issue for this industry.

Industrial and Commercial Hybrid & Pure Electric Vehicles 2013 - 2023: Forecasts, Opportunities, Players
The market for electric industrial vehicles is already large because, by law, forklifts have to be electric when used indoors. Little growth remains in this market but outdoors almost all earthmoving and lifting vehicles use the conventional internal combustion engine. That is about to change dramatically because hybrid electric versions reduce cost of ownership and exposure to price hikes with fossil fuels. Hybrids increasingly perform better as well, with more power from stationary, ability to supply electricity to other equipment and other benefits including less noise and pollution. On the other hand, airports, often government owned or funded, are under great pressure to finish converting their Ground Support Equipment GSE to pure electric versions both on and off the tarmac partly using federal grants.

Hybrid & Pure Electric Vehicles for Land, Water & Air 2013-2023: Forecasts, Technologies, Players
Pure electric car sales in 2013 will be just 70,000 vehicles rising to 2 million in 2023, versus 2 million hybrid vehicles this year rising to 7.6 million in 2023. Of course, the big unit numbers come at the small end - most of the unit volume in 2013 will be for two wheeled vehicles - 32 million vehicles in 2013 rising to 94 million in 2023, albeit at far lower average price points.
If we look at the figures by the value of each sector - including industrial, marine, buses and others - we find that hybrid and pure electric cars will be almost half the total value of all electric vehicles in 2023, but less profitable than other vehicle types.
