Electric bikes are bicycles that include an inbuilt electric motor to aid in propulsion. E-bikes, as opposed to conventional bicycles, include a battery-operated motor that may either support the rider's pedaling efforts or, under some situations, propel the bike entirely without the rider having to pedal. Riding a bicycle is now more accessible and requires less physical exertion thanks to this mechanical aid, which makes navigating difficult terrains like hills and lengthy distances easier. Rechargeable batteries, which vary in range based on the model and battery capacity, are standard on e-bikes. By decreasing dependency on fossil fuels and lowering carbon footprints, they are intended to offer an efficient and environmentally friendly substitute for conventional forms of transportation. E-bikes serve a wide range of users, including fitness fanatics, recreational riders, and urban commuters.
Saudi Arabia Electric Bike Market Driving Factors and Challenges
Driving Factors- The e-bike industry in Saudi Arabia is expanding rapidly as people look for cost-effective and environmentally responsible ways to get around town. E-bikes make riding more convenient and accessible by providing electric help for pedaling. The e-bike industry in Saudi Arabia is expanding its market share by investing in e-bike infrastructure that will ease traffic, encourage sustainable mobility, and provide a convenient and healthful mode of transportation. There are more cars on the road as a result of the expanding territory and increased population. Individuals would rather drive their own vehicles, such as cars and motorcycles, than use public transportation.
Challenges- Since the turn into the twenty-first century, electric bikes have undergone constant development. Today, they come equipped with walk assist, touchscreen interfaces, on-board navigation, and automatic gear shifting for less effort when pedaling. The design is more intricate due to these cutting-edge technologies. Power management components, on-board computing technology, motor and motor control technology, and mechanical design concerns are some of the challenges that the manufacture must overcome. The problem is not just figuring out where the battery system and motor should go on an e-bike; it also involves designing the motor and power management components in a way that limits the market.
Impact of COVID-19 on Saudi Arabia Electric Bike Market
The market for electric bikes has grown significantly as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Electric bikes have emerged as the go-to mode of transportation as they are affordable, quick, easy to ride, and safe, especially in light of people's increased caution and the fact that public transportation has suffered even after lockdowns were lifted. The selling of e-Bikes was hindered by government lockdowns and restrictions, which prevented people from commuting for anything other than necessities. Stores were closed. But after all restrictions were lifted, things returned to normal with the opening of offices and other routine businesses around the world.
