The cost advantage of lead-acid batteries over lithium-ion batteries is notably driving the motorcycle batteries market growth, although factors such as OEMs losing revenue and brand reputation due to counterfeit products may impede market growth. Our research analysts have studied the historical data and deduced the key market drivers and the COVID-19 pandemic impact on the motorcycle batteries industry. The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.
Key Motorcycle Batteries Market Driver
The cost advantage of lead-acid batteries over lithium-ion batteries is one of the key factors driving the growth of the global motorcycle batteries market. Lead-acid batteries have been able to retain their market share in electric vehicle applications even with the introduction of new battery chemistries, such as the lithium-ion battery. Lithium-ion batteries are costlier than lead-acid batteries. Furthermore, lead-acid batteries offer high cranking current ideal for stationary applications, such as uninterruptible power supply (UPS). The energy density of lithium-ion batteries ranges from 90 Wh/kg to 120 Wh/kg, compared with 30Wh/kg-40Wh/kg for lead-acid batteries. The battery life cycle of lithium-ion batteries is five to 15 times longer than lead-acid batteries. However, the price of lithium-ion batteries must be reduced further to compete in the batteries market. However, The cost of lithium-ion batteries is decreasing rapidly due to the commercialization and adoption of these batteries in EVs. According to the US Department of Energy (DOE), battery costs declined from $1,000/kWh in 2008 to $485/kWh in 2012. The cost is further expected to decrease to $300/kWh by 2020. In 2014, lead-acid batteries were priced at $150-$350/kWh, which is expected to reduce further. Lightweight lithium-ion batteries are an advantage for motorcycles as the performance depends on the power-to-weight ratio.
Key Motorcycle Batteries Market Trend
The development of moldable batteries will fuel the global motorcycle battery market growth. The high cost of lithium-ion is leading the manufacturers to struggle to meet the cost hurdles, and the demand for advanced lead-acid technology is growing continuously. Lead-acid batteries have several advantages over lithium-ion batteries. Lead-acid battery chemistry produces the least amount of heat when compared with other battery chemistries, and these batteries are fully rechargeable. The problem comes with fitting the battery into the packaging space. To solve this issue, Electriplast Corporation, a leader in conductive hybrid plastics, is redefining lead-acid batteries. A prototype of a 12V lead-acid bipolar battery with Electriplast plates has been demonstrated by the company. With the help of the molding process, an infinite number of 3D shapes of different sizes, which permit bipolar plates and integral structures to be incorporated in any desired shape, can be produced. The weight of the battery is reduced by 50% because bipolar technology does not require the top lead to connect the plates. These plates can be inserted easily into the bipolar battery package and can be used as a replacement for existing quasi-bipolar plates.
Key Motorcycle Batteries Market Challenge
The OEMs losing revenue and brand reputation due to counterfeit products is a major challenge for the global motorcycle batteries market growth. In 2020, the US government estimated that the global market value of the counterfeit industry is $520 billion. About 70% of counterfeit products that entered the US were manufactured in China. In 2011, 73% of fake products that entered Europe were from China. Such products are affecting the revenues and brand reputation of the OEMs. Moreover, Safety is a major concern associated with counterfeit batteries. In the case of lithium-ion batteries, a significant amount of energy is packed into a small space, and lithium-ion is a highly reactive element. A manufacturing defect of a lithium-ion battery can lead to a thermal runaway if an internal short circuit occurs in a battery, the chemicals inside the battery break and start reacting, which leads to the release of a significant amount of heat. These chemical reactions occur faster at high temperatures, which further increases the temperature. Within a few seconds, a burning lithium-ion battery can reach 1,000°F-1,500°F. There have been many instances where products have been recalled due to battery issues.

COVID Impact and Recovery Analysis
The outbreak of COVID-19 in 2020 negatively impacted the manufacturers and buyers of motorcycles. In early 2020, developing countries in APAC, such as India and Indonesia, started showing a steady increase in COVID-19 cases. The demand for motorcycles and accessories, such as batteries, mirrors, and tires, were impacted in these countries, as new purchases by consumers declined due to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the demand for motorcycles revived in 2021. For instance, motorcycle sales in India grew by 9.3% in 2021, owing to the increased vaccination rate in the country, which led to the removal of restrictions and gradual resumption of commercial operations. The demand for motorcycles is expected to increase, as personal mobility is expected to gain prominence due to the lifting of restrictions. This will have a positive impact on the growth of the market in focus during the forecast period.
