Low-Speed Electric Vehicles for Consumer and Fleet Markets: Demand Drivers and Barriers, Technology Issues, Key Industry Players, and Market Forecasts
Neighborhood electric vehicles (NEVs) were one of the original "electric vehicle" categories and have been on the market for a number of years. NEVs are street legal with a top speed of 25 miles per hour. Originally conceived as a way to fulfill the California Air Resources Board zero emissions requirements in the late 1990s, the vehicles have found a niche with fleets that can use inexpensive vehicles on public roads, and consumers who live in communities that often have designated paths and parking for the vehicles.
NEVs remain competitive and relevant in today's market by utilizing lead acid battery technology, allowing them to compete at less than half the cost of light duty electric vehicles. Pike Research's analysis indicates that the global market for NEVs is currently small, but will grow at a healthy pace over the next several years.
This Pike Research report provides a comprehensive examination of the market forces, technology issues, governmental incentives and regulations, and key drivers of the growth of neighborhood electric vehicles. The report includes sales, revenue, and battery forecasts through 2017, as well as profiles of key industry players.
