Reportlinker Adds World Motorcycles Market
(including Electric Bikes & Mopeds)


Reportlinker.com announces that a new market research report is available in its
catalogue.

Reportlinker Adds World Motorcycles Market (including Electric Bikes & Mopeds)

     Global demand to rise 7.6% annually through 2013

Global demand for motorcycles is forecast to rise 7.6 percent per year through
2013 to 114 million units, spurred by rising standards of living in poorer
developing parts of the world, which are making motorcycles a more affordable
alternative to walking, bicycling or using mass transit. Higher energy prices,
along with a rebound in economic growth after a recessionary period that began
in a number of nations in 2008, will also contribute to motorcycle market gains
in both developing and developed areas. Product sales will expand at a slower
pace in value terms, climbing 7.2 percent annually to $66.6 billion in 2013,
because of an expected decline in sales-weighted prices. Some offsetting support
will be provided by the introduction of new models equipped with sophisticated
emissions control systems and increased sales of machines with more features,
boosting motorcycle dollar demand.

     Africa/Mideast, Asia/Pacific markets to grow the fastest

The strongest market advances through 2013 will be registered by the Africa/
Mideast region. This will be due to several factors, including the fastest
population growth of any region in the world, the lowest median age and the
lowest (but climbing) per capita GDP. Population increases and higher standards
of living will also help stimulate motorcycle sales in the Asia/Pacific region,
which will post the second strongest gains, followed by Eastern Europe (rising
from a very small current market base) and Latin America. China alone will
account for 55 percent of all additional product demand through 2013,
solidifying its position as the biggest national market by far for motorcycles.
Growth is also expected to be healthy in lowervolume markets such as Nigeria,
the Philippines, Vietnam and Indonesia. Product demand will expand at a more
moderate rate in developed countries, where automobiles and other light vehicles
are the primary form of personal transportation, and motorcycles are generally
considered to be luxury goods used for recreational purposes. Nevertheless, high
energy prices, city center congestion (especially in Western Europe) and
personal income growth will provide some impetus to motorcycle sales advances in
these areas.

     Electric motorcyles to lead gains, ICE types to remain dominant

Electric motorcycles will register the strongest market growth of any major
product type. Demand for batterypowered bicycles, scooters and other
two-wheelers will be driven by their generally lower purchase prices, low cost
of operation and lack of harmful emissions. However, ICE motorcycles will
continue to account for two-thirds of all sales. ICEs are a proven, widely
accepted motorcycle powerplant technology, and improvements continue to be made
in engine designs. In addition, ICE motorcycles can travel further before
needing to be refueled, and larger ICE models are more powerful than most
currently available electric motorcycles. Light motorcycles -- which offer
greater power and better performance than scooters, mopeds and motorbikes, but
have lower price tags and are less expensive to operate than medium and heavy
motorcycles -- will outperform other ICE product types and maintain their
position as the largest single segment of the motorcycle market.

     Study coverage

This new industry study, World Motorcycles, presents historical demand data
(1998, 2003 and 2008) plus forecasts for 2013 and 2018 by motorcycle type,
worldwide regional market as well as for 21 national markets. The study also
considers market environment factors, evaluates company market share and
profiles 38 competitors in the global industry.
