The pedal-assisted bicycle is playing an increasingly important role in the world of sustainable mobility, with a market growth far superior to the traditional bicycle market.
2019 was characterized by a significant drop in sales of muscle bicycles (-7.6% estimated by Confindustria Ancma - National Association of Motorcycle Cycle Accessories), while an increase in sales of pedal-assisted bicycles (+16,8%) confirms the consumer interest in an innovative quality product. Numerous reports released at the beginning of 2020 estimate that, by 2025, electric vehicles will represent between 30% and 40% of European urban mobility, with an increase in global e-bike turnover that will go over 38 billion dollars.
Consumption
Research conducted by RTE in France predicts that by 2035, according to advanced results, energy consumption linked to the development of electric mobility should not exceed 48TWh. The impact of electric mobility, therefore, will represent 16% of the electricity consumption in the area and will not jeopardize the security of electricity supply in Italy.
E-Bike Opportunities
This low environmental impact market growth brings with it numerous opportunities in various sectors, including long-term rental in urban centers and eco-sustainable tourism. For those interested in joining the world of pedal-assisted bicycles, our E-Bike Franchising (discussed also by VaiElettrico) aims to promote local ecotourism and a sustainable lifestyle.
