The Global Fleets: Opportunities for Electric Two-Wheelers (2025 edition) is a syndicated research study by InsightEV. It evaluates and analyses key markets worldwide for vehicle fleet deployment. These fleets may include gig workers delivering food or employed in quick commerce, e-commerce, or some other delivery format. The coverage also includes motorcycle taxis, parcel delivery, and vehicles used by small fleets like restaurants and local postal services.
At present, these fleets are largely Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) powered, but cost optimisation of operations, environmental concerns, ESG mandates, and better fleet management systems would drive a shift to electric. This is a megatrend in the making, and we assess the changes and the opportunities this brings.
The report evaluates and analyses 74 geographies (cities/countries) – 22 in Asia, 8 in North America, 16 in Europe, 14 in Africa, 11 in South America, and 3 in Australia. Together, the geographies represent about 2.3 billion people, and more than 257 million motorcycles in operation.
The selected geographies represent an estimated 31.5 million delivery riders today, a number that is forecasted to grow to 44.7 million over the next five years.
In every geography we looked at the delivery platforms, their relationship with the riders, who owns the vehicles, who manages the riders, and the most important factors that would impact the future choice of vehicle.
This study also profiles 32 leading delivery platforms globally and 31 manufacturers/operators who are responsible for supplying the vehicles.
The study helps businesses and investors align their future planning and goals with a practical assessment of the market. The geographical split can help fine-tune your focus with the local requirements.
