Product Overview
Traction batteries are primarily used to give power to battery of the electric vehicles. These batteries are used in the electric golf carts, riding floor scrubbers, electric cars, forklifts and trucks. The some of the advantages of using traction batteries are more energy saving, low battery temperature and very less water consumption. The traction batteries can be made from 2 volt cells, 4 volt cells, 8 volt cells and 12 volt cells. There are two types of designs used in the traction batteries known as flooded and VRLA batteries. These designs provide consistent operation. Traction batteries are important part of the electric and hybrid vehicle in the various countries across the globe.
Market Size and Forecast
The global traction batteries market is anticipated to expand at a significant CAGR during 2018-2027. It is projected to reach significant market size by 2027. The increasing production of electric vehicles coupled with the rising demand for the energy efficient vehicles is anticipated to increase the market growth of the global traction batteries.
The global traction batteries market can be segmented on the basis of product type and application type. On the basis of application type, it is segmented into pure electric car, light industrial and commercial, heavy industrial, two wheeler, hybrid car, golf car and mobility for the disabled.
