Report Code: AIR 0259 Report Format: PDF + Excel
The global Electric Axle Drive and Wheel Drive market is estimated to surpass $10 billion by 2023 and is estimated to witness a prominent growth during 2018-2023 owing to the gradual shift in adoption of electric vehicles especially in the commercial  and industrial sector. The growing adoption of automated guided vehicles, mobile electric material handling vehicles due to  penetration of automation is  set to drive the market growth in the future.

What is Electric Axle Drive and Wheel Drive Market?
Electric Axle Drive incorporates the traction motor along with gear train, motor drives and other power electronics in-built into one sub assembly which can be directly coupled with the rear axle of the electric vehicle. Wheel Drive units are traction drive sub assemblies which includes wheel hub and tire, traction motor, gear drives, brakes and so on which can be directly mounted to the vehicle. These modular sub assemblies are designed on various factors including loading factor, speed requirement, reduction ratio, torque, area of use, vehicle type and so on. 

The Electric Axle Drive and Wheel Drive market report includes an in-depth analysis  of various drives based on motor types such as induction motor, brushless motor, permanent magnet AC motor and so on. By drive type the report gives  an assessment of axle drive market by fully electric and hybrid types. The report also includes a comprehensive study of the market by type of vehicles as pure electric, hybrid and plug in hybrid. 

What are the Applications for Electric Axle Drive and Wheel Drive Units?
The various end users of electric axle drive and wheel drive units include passenger vehicles, commercial vehicles and others. Under the other section the electric vehicles such as AGVs, aerial lifts and mobile cranes, light and medium duty utility vehicles are considered. Electric axle drives are majorly used for passenger and commercial vehicles, where as wheel drives are specifically designed for AGVs, cleaners and other utility vehicles. The compact and modular design of these sub assemblies avails the car makers to design the power train in a much cost effective and scalable manner, thereby reducing the complexity of the final assembly. Further the presence of integrated systems such as power electronics and braking system in electric axle drive and wheel dive units respectively,  lowers the production time and time to market their products
