Connected motorcycles are equipped with advanced technologies that help in collision avoidance, adaptive cruise control, lane assistance, weather and road condition alerts along with real-time intervention for crash prediction. This has encouraged the government and companies in the market to develop motorcycles with advanced safety features and real-time monitoring. In January 2025, Royal Enfield partnered with Qualcomm to expand its electric motorcycle product base. The company plans to integrate Qualcomm’s Snapdragon QWM2290 system-on-chip and Car-to-Cloud platform in its upcoming Flying Flea electric motorcycles.
Connected motorcycles are equipped with advanced technologies such as AI, and IoT sensors that enable real-time tracking of bike performance, location, and safety while the integration of 5G and ultra-low latency networks enhances better communication between motorcycles and smart traffic systems. Thus, the rising awareness of the benefits of connected motorcycles and premium performance motorcycles is expected to fuel market growth going ahead.
Connected Motorcycle Sector: Growth Drivers and Challenges
Growth Drivers
- Growing Ratio of Motorcycle Accidents –The rising number of accidents is expected to boost demand for connected motorcycles in the projected period. IoT can combine with edge devices by using big data to deliver real-time warnings to help prevent one of the most fatal accidents on the road. Hence, motorcycle accidents can be prevented with the help of IoT. For instance, it was found that in the United States, more than 4,900 people died on motorcycles, and about 82,000 were injured in such crashes in 2018.
- Rising Use of Big Data - Big data is defined as data that is either difficult or impossible to analyze using standard methods since it is so huge, rapid, or complex. Still large-scale data access and storage for analytics have been practiced for a very long time. Moreover, it has gained much popularity in the last two decades. The significant contribution of using big data to lowering the pollution is one of its greatest advantages. Big data on electric motorcycles can effectively reduce the number of carbon emissions from vehicles on the road in addition to checking traffic. While transportation technology improves, it also results in a reduced ratio of pollution, and consumers and EV producers may use the data to develop better solutions. For instance, in 2022, approximately 2.5 quintillion bytes of data were produced per day across the globe.
- Increasing Investment in 5th Generation (5G) Mobile Network Technology – As per 2020 data, governments are investing in 5G technology in a bid to make hyperconnected public services, and it is expected to boost the growth of the global motorcycle market. For instance, China allotted more than USD 30 billion for research and development on 5G for the upcoming 5 years.
- Growing Number of Motorcycles – The global trend of owning motorcycles is growing, which is also anticipated to drive the market growth over the coming years. For instance, globally there were around 600 million motorcycles in 2022.
- Escalating Demand for Electric Bikes & 2 Wheelers – There has been surging demand for electric bike across the globe, that is expected to increase the market’s growth. For instance, in 2021, the global electric 2-wheeler (including motorcycles and scooters) sales surpassed around 11 million units, which represents an expansion of around 82% over the year of 2019, and an 18% share of the overall 2-wheeler industry.
Challenges
- Stringent Government Regulatory Policies – As per reports, From January 1, 2020, Euro 5, the fifth set of European motorcycle regulations was launched in Europe. Their goal is to lessen the amount of air pollution created by two-wheelers, three-wheelers, and even quadricycles. Three- and four-wheelers, as well as motorcycles with lesser engine displacements, have various specifications. Hence, this factor is anticipated to hinder the market growth over the projected time frame.

Connected Motorcycle Segmentation
Type (Roadster, Adventure, Tour, Sports, Heritage)
The roadster segment is anticipated to garner the largest revenue by the end of 2037 attributed to the rising demand for safety features such as Advanced Rider Assistance Systems (ARAS), emergency calls, and real-time diagnosis and growing penetration of premium and performance bikes, especially among youngsters. Several roadsters with IoT and smartphone integration and cloud connectivity are steadily gaining popularity. Ola, one of the leading EV manufacturers and distributors in February 2025, announced the launch of OLA Roadster X and Roadster X+ electric motorcycles in India. OLA Roadster X will have 3 battery pack options, while Roadster X+ will have 2.
Hardware (Embedded, Integrated, Tethered)
The embedded segment is likely to expand at a rapid pace during the forecast period owing to increasing awareness about rider safety and assistance and consumer preference for seamless connectivity. These embedded systems can keep track of key parameters such as distance covered, speed, and external temperatures and even monitor the health of the rider. In addition, government mandate laws for safety features such as eCall, ABS, and traction control have resulted in high adoption of embedded telematics and ARAS in motorcycles.
