These vehicles have reduced operational and maintenance expenses when compared with conventional internal combustion engine vehicles, attracting both individual commuters and commercial fleet operators. The economic advantages, along with the necessity for environment-friendly transportation, are contributing to the electric three-wheeler market growth. Their compact size, zero emissions, and cost-efficiency address the unique challenges of urban mobility, making them increasingly popular. In June 2024, Omega Seiki Mobility released two models of the electric three-wheeler, OSM Stream City ATR with a swappable battery and Stream City 8.5 with a fixed battery, designed for urban mobility.

Collaborative Initiatives and Strategic Partnership

Cooperative efforts and strategic alliances among manufacturers, battery suppliers, technology companies, and government entities are speeding up improvements and distribution of electric three-wheelers. Partnerships and agreements for joint development enable stakeholders to combine resources and knowledge, improving vehicle performance and cutting down on expenses. Collaborative research operations aim to improve battery technology and incorporate essential smart features for market expansion. Partnership between vehicle manufacturers and charging station providers improve the incorporation and accessibility of charging options, which helps overcome a major obstacle to widespread use. These collaborations simplify the production process and establish a favorable environment for electric three-wheelers. Collaboration among all involved parties can help tackle technical and economic obstacles, leading to a more stable and eco-friendly electric three-wheeler industry. In line with the electric three-wheeler market recent developments, in August 2023, Omega Seiki Mobility collaborated with Punjab National Bank (PNB) to improve the availability of retail EVs and simplify financing for electric three-wheelers. The partnership sought to fund another 7,500 electric vehicles (EVs) totaling INR 300 crore in the following three years.

Government Incentives and Environmental Policies

Authorities in numerous countries are implementing strategies to reduce carbon emissions and promote the adoption of sustainable transportation. Government financial support in the form of subsidies, tax breaks, and grants is decreasing the cost and improving the appeal of electric three-wheelers for both manufacturers and buyers. Rules regarding emission standards are also driving traditional combustion engine three-wheeler manufacturers to transition to electric models. They are also making substantial investments in charging infrastructure and providing incentives to fleet operators to encourage the adoption of EVs. These initiatives not only reduce the upfront costs of electric three-wheelers but also enhance user confidence and market adoption. The Government of India launched the Electric Mobility Promotion Scheme 2024 on March 13, 2024, with a budget of INR 500 crore to support 372,215 electric two-wheelers and three-wheelers through subsidies from April 1, 2024, to July 31, 2024. The scheme aimed to speed up the adoption of EVs in these categories.
