HYBRID AND ELECTRIC CAR MARKET REPORT OVERVIEW

The global hybrid and electric car market size was USD 431.39 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach USD 3100.27 billion by 2033, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of about 24.5% from 2025 to 2033.

A hybrid and electric car is a form of hybrid vehicle that syndicates a predictable inner combustion engine (ICE) system with an electrical force system. A hybrid vehicle uses more than a single form of control source. The most common kinds of hybrid vehicles use a mixture of an inner combustion engine (ICE) and an electric engine. Hybrid vehicles are planned for improved fuel effectiveness, more control, and least emissions. These vehicles capture electrical energy created from altered bases, such as regenerative braking systems and engines. They can preserve energy by closing down the engine when the car is parked, idle, or when the electric motor’s energy is adequate to drive the vehicle deprived of support from the ICE.

COVID-19 Impact: Lockdown Restrictions during the Pandemic to Hamper Automobile Sales 

An outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic affected market progress across the world. In the starting of 2020, the automotive industry faced difficulties owing to complete lockdown and travel restrictions. The COVID-19 pandemic has delayed the progress of the hybrid vehicle market as unceasing lockdowns and closures of industrial units ensued in a failure in fabrication levels of these vehicles. Moreover, supply chain intricacies have subsidized the amplified price of hybrid vehicles. Strict social distance protocols and working from culture to hamper market growth. Demand for lease cars reduced during the pandemic. Shutdown of the automotive industry reduced hybrid and electric car market growth.

LATEST TRENDS
