PROPULSION SEGMENT MARKET OVERVIEW
- In Canada, there is no classification system for electric bikes. However, e-bikes in Canada cannot exceed 500 W or 32 kmph. E-bikes with pedal-assisted and throttle-assisted functions are legal in Canada. For example, in June 2021, the Transportation and Environment Ministry of Canada awarded USD 200,000 to fund the City of Vancouver's pilot project to build an e-bike micro hub. Trucks will transfer packages to the hub, where they will be transported by cargo e-bikes to their final destination.
- E-bikes are being recognized as a new mode of transportation in cities across Canada, including Toronto and British Columbia. British Columbia provides an e-bike subsidy, potentially creating a market opportunity. Vancouver offers one of the most extensive e-bike retail outlets in British Columbia. The North Vancouver District develops comprehensive regulations for e-bike charging infrastructure.
- Rising government spending on bike-sharing programs, bike lanes, and more pedestrian-friendly streets is expected to increase consumer interest in e-bikes in the coming years as part of the government's broader efforts to promote transportation options, improve road safety, and better the environment. Electric bicycles, for example, are listed as one of the emerging forms of transportation in Vancouver's Transportation 2040 plan. E-bikes may eventually become the most eco-friendly mode of transportation in Canada in the future.
Canada E-bike Market Trends
Canada's E-Bike adoption rates show a steady increase, indicating a growing awareness and acceptance of E-Bikes.
- The demand for bicycles has increased significantly across Canada over the past few years. The benefits of an electronic bicycle over conventional bicycles have sparked a surge in demand for e-bikes across Canada. Ease of riding, pollution-free travel, time savings, and cost efficiency are some of the major factors contributing to the adoption of e-bikes over other vehicles for daily commuting. As a result, e-bike adoption increased by 0.70% in 2019 compared to 2018.
- The rise of COVID-19 cases and the avoidance of public and shared transportation have positively impacted the sales and usage of personal vehicles, including e-bikes. People prefer e-bikes to other modes of transportation because they are one of the cheapest and most carefree vehicles, with very little maintenance cost compared to other vehicles. Such factors have resulted in the sales growth of e-bicycles, due to which the adoption rate of e-bikes among consumers in Canada increased by around 0.70% in 2020 over 2019.
- The growing awareness of e-bikes among Canadians is changing their attitudes, with factors such as effort savings, no fuel expenses, eco-friendliness, a cheap mode of transportation, and exercise benefits driving the growth of e-bikes. The country witnessed an e-bike adoption rate of 1.30% in 2022 over 2021, which is projected to grow further during the forecast period.
Canada demonstrates a gradual and consistent rise in the percentage of commuters traveling 5-15 km daily, reflecting stable commuting habits.
- Over the past few years, the demand for bicycles in Canada has increased significantly as residents of various cities steadily adopted the bicycle culture. However, commuter travel of 5-15 km is still relatively low compared to other modes of transportation. In 2019, most people preferred traveling by car and public transportation, and less than 5% of the population opted to commute by bicycle to nearby places within 5-15 km.
- The pandemic strongly and positively affected the demand for bicycles in Canada. Due to COVID-19-related concerns, more Canadians opted to cycle or walk to work than ride public transportation. Due to the pandemic, the use of public transportation decreased by 10%. However, daily bicycle commuters registered a growth of more than 3% in 2020 over 2019. The introduction of e-bikes with advanced features and higher battery ranges has encouraged consumers to opt for bicycles, thus increasing the number of commuters in Canada within the 5-15 km travel range in 2021 over 2020.
- Despite the relaxation in pandemic-related restrictions, people continued to use bicycles as a mode of commute as they developed a habit during the pandemic. Many people commute daily by bicycle between offices, businesses, and marketplaces within a range of 5-15 km. More people are adopting bicycles due to their health benefits, carbon-free journeys, and time-saving advantages. These factors are anticipated to increase the use of bicycles for commuting between 5 and 15 km in Canada 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. |
