Description

The Alternative Fuel Vehicles Market Report offers an in-depth exploration of emerging market trends, driving factors, challenges, and key segments that shape the industry. It includes a thorough examination of regulatory frameworks, company profiles, and the latest industry developments. The report delves into product development, positioning strategies, and the impact of new technologies on the market landscape. By identifying challenges and opportunities, the report provides a detailed roadmap for market growth.

Alternative fuel vehicles are those vehicles that operates on energy sources that aren’t traditional diesel or gasoline, such as electricity, biofuels, hydrogen or natural gas. AFVs are designed to lower the environmental impact by reducing the greenhouse gas emissions and its reliance on fossil fuels. They are widely used for commercial fleets, private transportation and public transit for cleaner mobility. Urban regions, government and logistics has higher adoption due to environmental regulations and increasing fuel cost.

Report Highlights:
  • Alternative fuel vehicles market size is accounted for USD 716.2 Billion in 2025.
  • Target market size is estimated to be valuated at USD 8378.8 Billion by 2035 and at a registered CAGR of 31.0 %.
  • By fuel, the battery electric vehicles (BEVs) segment is projected to govern the alternative fuel vehicles market share.
  • By Vehicles, the passenger vehicles segment is expected to influence the alternative fuel vehicles market share.
  • By end-user, the commercial and fleet segment is the end user ruling over the alternative fuel vehicles market growth.
Key Highlights:
  • In January 2024, the Renewable Fuels Association showcased the Plug-in Hybrid Electric Flex Fuel Vehicle (PHEFFV) at the Washington, D.C. Auto Show. RFA conducted various tests for the converted 2022 Ford Escape, including tailpipe emissions analysis, life cycle greenhouse gas assessment, cost of ownership analysis, and convenience testing.
  • In June 2023, National Fuel Gas Distribution Corporation (National Fuel) officials initiated an alternative fuel vehicle pilot program. The program utilizes an Adsorbed Natural Gas (ANG) platform developed by Ingevity Corporation, known as NeuFuel. According to the Natural Gas Vehicles of America (NGVA), when combined with renewable natural gas (RNG), this platform has the potential to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by up to 125 percent.
Report Analysis:

Hybrid electric vehicles:

New Standard hybrids are powered by an internal combustion engine that runs on gasoline or diesel, along with an electric motor that uses energy stored in a battery. Rather than using a plug to charge the battery, they rely on regenerative braking and the internal combustion engine to recharge—capturing energy that would normally be lost during braking.

Plug-in hybrids, on the other hand, use the electric battery as the primary energy source. They rely on battery power for propulsion over a limited range (typically 15–40 miles) before switching to internal combustion propulsion, thereby significantly reducing gasoline consumption.
