China In-wheel motor Market Size Key Industry Trends and Growth Forecast 2032
China In-wheel Motor Market
The China in-wheel motor market is advancing swiftly, fueled by the country’s ambition to lead in electric vehicle (EV) technology. In-wheel motors, which place the motor directly within the wheels, improve vehicle efficiency by reducing energy loss, which aligns with China’s focus on energy conservation and carbon reduction. Automakers in China are investing heavily in this technology to create compact, energy-efficient EVs, appealing to eco-conscious urban consumers. While the market faces challenges such as high production costs and durability concerns for in-wheel motor systems, strong government support, combined with extensive R&D in EV components, continues to propel growth in this market.
According to MRFR analysis, the global In-wheel motor market is expected to register a CAGR of ~ 32.31 % from 2024 to 2030 and hold a value of over USD 49.150 million by 2032.
The In-Wheel Motor Market is gaining traction as a key technology in the automotive sector, particularly with the increasing demand for electric vehicles (EVs) and advancements in mobility solutions. In-wheel motors, also known as hub motors, are electric motors located within the wheel hub of a vehicle, eliminating the need for traditional drivetrains and enabling direct drive capabilities. This innovative approach offers several advantages, including improved efficiency, enhanced vehicle performance, and greater design flexibility.
As the automotive industry moves towards electrification and autonomous driving, in-wheel motor technology is becoming increasingly relevant. The growing focus on reducing vehicle weight, maximizing energy efficiency, and enhancing maneuverability is propelling the adoption of in-wheel motors in various vehicle types, including passenger cars, commercial vehicles, and electric bikes.

Market Research Future Insights
An in-wheel motor is a type of electric motor that is mounted directly inside the wheel of a vehicle, rather than being located elsewhere in the vehicle, such as in the engine compartment or transmission. In-wheel motors are used in some electric and hybrid vehicles to provide propulsion.
They can offer several benefits, such as improved handling and braking, as well as increased space inside the vehicle because they do not require a traditional drivetrain. The demand for electric and hybrid vehicles has been affected by the pandemic. The use of electric and hybrid vehicles may have been seen as a more sustainable and environmentally friendly transportation option during the pandemic, as they do not produce emissions and may help to reduce air pollution in urban areas.
