The Asia-Pacific electric bus market is expected to have a 9.8% CAGR during 2021-2027 owing to the rising pollution level from vehicles in various APAC countries. Furthermore, the increasing population has led to an increase in the number of people having their own cars and two-wheelers that contribute to the increased air pollution levels. This has resulted in surging demand for clean mobility and substitute transportation solutions like electric buses. Also, the regulations by the government and subsidies and tax exemption on electric buses provided by the government to boost sales will also contribute to the growth of the Asia-Pacific electric bus market.

The COVID-19 outbreak has unprecedently declined the sales of vehicles and has adversely impacted the ebus demand. To curtail the spread of coronavirus, many transportation and manufacturing operations have been stopped along with public transport. The global automobile industry has slowed down and nationwide lockdowns, limited employees, and social distancing as disturbed public commuting. This all has resulted in the sluggish growth of the electric bus market.
