Electric traction motor is a type of electric motor which is used for propulsion of a vehicle. It is used in electrically powered rail vehicles such as electric multiple units and electric locomotives. Furthermore, traction motor is installed in fully hybrid and battery electric vehicles. The global electric traction motor market is expected to grow at 18.08% CAGR during the forecast period.

Electric traction motor is used for propulsion of a vehicle, usually in electrically powered rail vehicles such as electric multiple units and other electric vehicles such as elevators, conveyors, and others. These motors are also installed in fully hybrid and battery electric vehicles to provide rotation torque and maintain energy efficiency.

The growing demand for electric traction motor market is attributed to the increasing investment in electric vehicles which would help in reducing carbon emission. This would in turn require energy efficient electric traction motors. Growing focus on electric vehicles in order to reduce carbon emissions is expected to create an opportunity for market players to boost the growth of electric traction motor market during the forecast period. One of the major restraints for the global electric traction motor market is the volatility in raw material prices.

Industry Segmentation

The electric traction motor market has been segmented based on motors type into AC and DC motor. Among these types, AC segment is the fastest growing segment in the electric traction motor market as it widely used in electric vehicles and railway sector. It has various advantages such as high efficiency, better speed acceleration, and less maintenance compared to DC motors.

Regional Outlook
