The global solar-powered vehicle market is expected to witness a CAGR of 37.56% during the forecast period. Factors driving the growth of the solar-powered vehicles market are the increasing interest in renewable and sustainable energy resources and systems, the rising purchasing power of consumers, growing environmental concerns, preference of consumers towards eco-friendly solutions and vehicles, and the growing importance of solar-powered vehicles in emerging economies resulting in the growth of the solar-powered vehicles industry. There is a need to reduce the dependence on fossil fuels which is a primary factor contributing to the growth of the solar-powered vehicles market. Initiatives taken by the government to provide rebates and subsidies for the manufacturing of solar-powered vehicles and rising fuel prices will steadily boost the solar-powered vehicle market. Nevertheless, the rising trend of self-charging vehicles has led to the innovation of the solar cars market, resulting in the growth of the solar-powered vehicle market.
The COVID-19 pandemic has affected many economies and the companies are facing unprecedented losses. Owing to the spread of the novel coronavirus, the government had announced strict lockdown and there are no operational activities in the industries. The worst-hit sector is the automotive sector. There are supply chain disruptions leading to production shortfall. The regulatory authorities of various countries such as China are finding relaxation of emission mandates as auto manufacturers have less funding which is the key issue for cost reduction and technological development of solar vehicles. The economies are recovering from the repercussions and the manufacturers are trying to adjust production and supplies to the consumers.
