Electric SUV Market Size - Global Industry, Share, Analysis, Trends and Forecast 2022 - 2030
The Global Electric SUV Market size accounted for US$ 43 Bn in 2021 and is estimated to reach US$ 320 Bn by 2030, with a significant CAGR of 25.5% from 2022 to 2030.
An electric vehicle (EV) is propelled by electricity rather than a gasoline-fuelled internal combustion engine. As a result, such a vehicle is viewed as a potential replacement for current-generation automobiles in order to address issues such as rising pollution, global warming, decreasing natural resources, and so on. The term 'SUV' is automotive industry jargon for a sports utility vehicle. It refers to a car that rides high off the ground and typically has four-wheel drive and a rugged design. SUVs have grown in popularity during the last 20 years or so. They are especially popular as family vehicles, with many people preferring them to more typical options such as estate cars and MPVs. Both of these terms combined make an extraordinary combination called electric SUVs or E-SUVs. The surging fuel price is the primary factor that is boosting the electric SUV market revenue. In addition to that, some of the top trends in the worldwide electric SUV market include increasing demand for fuel-efficient, low-emission & high-performance vehicles and rising preference for SUVs and MUVs.
Market Growth Drivers:
- Rising environmental concerns
- Increase in penetration of fuel-efficient mobility solution
- Rising consumers' preference for SUVs

Electric SUV Market Dynamics
Over the last several years, there has been a dramatic movement from internal-combustion automobiles to electric or hybrid vehicles. Consumers have benefited from this class of automobiles due to government incentives to promote electric vehicles as well as rising fuel prices. This, together with people's increased disposable income, is fueling the expansion of the electric SUV market. Governments around the world are boosting their investments in electric mobility. Government laws to phase out fossil-fuel-powered vehicles, government investments to improve public EV charging infrastructure, and actions in the form of subsidies and tax refunds to encourage EV adoption are projected to boost the market growth. Governments are investing in charging infrastructure, either directly in public charging stations or indirectly through subsidies for private charging stations at homes and workplaces.
In addition, governments are providing appealing incentives and policies to stimulate the purchase of EVs. It offers users a variety of perks, including lower selling prices, no or low-priced registration fees, and free EV charging infrastructure at various charging points. Many governments throughout the world have enacted rigorous car emission laws in an attempt to minimize the quantity of greenhouse gas emissions in the environment. In Europe, the European Union has enacted legislation to cut CO2 emissions from light and medium commercial vehicles by 15% by 2025. However, lack of charging infrastructure coupled with the high initial investments required to install an EV charging infrastructure is certainly limiting the electric SUV market growth.
Electric SUV Market Segmentation
The global electric SUV market is segmented based on propulsion, type, seating capacity, and geography.
Market by Propulsion
- Hybrid Vehicle
- Battery Electric Vehicle
Based on our analysis, the battery electric vehicle segment accounted for the majority of the electric SUV market share in 2021. The high preference of consumers towards this class has helped the market to grow with a maximum share. However, the hybrid vehicles will witness a significant growth rate throughout the forecast period 2022 – 2030. Two engines power hybrid vehicles: one gasoline and one electric. To turn the wheels, they work together. As a response, less gasoline is burned, and fuel economy improves. The fundamental distinction between a hybrid and an electric vehicle is that the hybrid uses both an internal combustion engine and an electric motor(s) to power its wheels. The electric car, on the other hand, gets its power from a single source: the electric motor(s). While hybrid vehicles provide higher fuel efficiency or longer distances/ranges, electric vehicles have yet to reach their full potential. Nonetheless, electric vehicles emit fewer pollutants than hybrid vehicles that rely on an internal combustion engine.
Market by Type
- Compact Crossover
- Crossover
- Mid-Size
- Full-Size
Out of these, the compact crossover segment generated considerable market share in 2021. Early crossovers filled a market void. They were designed for those who sought the benefits of an SUV, such as high ground clearance, room, and practicality, without the drawbacks of an SUV, such as high fuel consumption and poor comfort. Crossovers, like sedans, have a smooth, pleasant ride since they are based on unibody chassis. They are also quite easy to drive and do not necessitate the driver learning new abilities. When compared to SUVs, they are easier to manage, park, and stop at shorter distances. They are also lighter than regular SUVs due to their unibody design. This also increases their fuel efficiency.
Market by Seating Capacity
- 5-Seater
- 6-Seater and Above
Among them, the 5-seater segment held the maximum market share during the forecasted timeframe from 2022 to 2030. The 5-seater market sector is popular because the cars are right-sized, right-priced, and meld carlike smoothness with a touch of practicality. These cars are also popular in the small family category. Moreover, owing to their economic advantages people with medium income are also acquiring this category, thereby increasing the market sales. Meanwhile, the 6-seater and above segment are expected to attain considerable growth throughout the forecasted timeframe from 2022 to 2030.
