Propulsion Segment Market Overview
- France's current road system is proving insufficient to handle the daily increase in car traffic. The WHO estimates that 1.35 million individuals lose their lives in traffic accidents every year. E-bike use will decrease the number of automobiles on the road as they take up less space on the road and cause fewer traffic jams. As a result, more people in France are choosing to ride e-bikes, which may increase their demand in the country.
- The COVID-19 pandemic significantly increased the demand for electric bikes. E-bikes emerged as the preferred mode of transportation as they are quick, simple to ride, affordable, and safe. During the pandemic, people's growing anxiety regarding public transportation and social distancing measures also boosted the demand for e-bikes in France. However, with businesses shutting down and only necessary services being permitted to commute during the first quarter of 2020, along with the government's limitations and lockdowns, the sales of e-bikes slowed down in the country. After the relaxation of restrictions and with wide vaccination campaigns, the world regained normalcy, which, in turn, contributed to commuters' going back to their regular travel patterns.
- In the coming years the market is expected to witness significant growth. Factors that may speed up the expansion of the e-bike market include government financing and strict restrictions on pollution and traffic congestion. The increased public interest in e-bikes as an affordable, dependable, and eco-friendly alternative to traditional vehicles is driving the growth of the electric bicycle market in the country and globally.
France E-bike Market Trends
France's E-Bike adoption rates indicate a robust growth, reflecting an expanding market and increasing popularity.
- Bicycle sales in France have grown significantly over the past few years. The increasing number of health-conscious consumers, high traffic congestion on the roads during peak hours, and increasing government practices to promote e-bicycles and protect the environment are improving the adoption of e-bicycles in the country. Reduced fuel costs and eco-friendliness of these bikes also accelerated their adoption rate by 2.60% in 2019 over 2018.
- The COVID-19 pandemic in the country positively impacted e-bike sales. People preferred using their personal vehicles for daily commutes and avoided public transportation due to the fear of contracting the virus during the pandemic, which further accelerated the sales of e-bikes in France. As a result, the adoption of e-bikes in the country grew by 19.60% in 2020 over 2019.
- The relaxation of COVID-19 restrictions due to a drop in the number of cases also led to the resumption of businesses and offices, which also contributed to the growth of the e-bike market in the country in Q1 2022. Companies are launching e-bikes with high-tech features, long battery ranges, higher speed limits, and fast charging features, thus encouraging consumer interest in the market. During the forecast period, the country is expected to see a growth of 80% in the adoption of e-bikes.
France demonstrates a steady increase in the percentage of commuters traveling 5-15 km daily, indicating evolving commuting habits.
- The country has witnessed a significant increase in bicycle demand in recent years, with rising interest in bicycles as a mode of commute among consumers. Though the demand for e-bikes is rising, the daily commute to offices and marketplaces within the range of 5-15 km is still low compared to other modes of transportation. Most people prefer personal automobiles for daily commutes. In 2020, only 3% of the workers across France opted for bicycles for daily commutes.
- In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic in France led to the closure of public transportation and gyms, along with offices and business operations. Therefore, people developed the habit of daily cycling during lockdowns, which continued in 2021. People are choosing to use e-bicycles to commute to their offices, businesses, and nearby locations, which raised the number of commuters in the range of 5-15 km by 0.3% in 2021 over 2020. The availability of e-bikes with modern battery packs that offer a greater range of up to 40-45 km is also increasing the demand from consumers who commute within the range of 5-15 km every day.
- In 2022, many users commuted daily by bicycle to their workplaces. A growing number of people are choosing to travel by e-bikes, mainly due to their health benefits, no emissions, and time savings. The developments in the bicycle infrastructure are also boosting the demand for e-bikes in the country. In September 2021, French Prime Minister Elisabeth Borne granted EUR 250 million to improve bike infrastructure and provide cycling classes for 800,000 schoolchildren. Such factors are anticipated to improve the use of e-bikes among consumers who travel a distance of 5-15 km daily 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. |
