The market is pivotal in addressing the environmental concerns associated with traditional petroleum-fuel vehicles. As Automotive Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) transition towards electrification, the demand for advanced testing solutions has surged. Lithium-ion batteries, key to EV propulsion, are subject to rigorous evaluation, alongside battery chemistry exploration, including lead-acid variants. Technological innovations extend to fuel-efficient technologies, necessitating precise vehicle testing equipment like chassis dynamometers and motor testing devices. Government support, exemplified by initiatives from the Canadian government, bolsters the development of battery-operated cars and EV charging infrastructure.
Increasing government support is a major factor driving the electric vehicle test market. Oil dependency, climate change, and clean air are the most crucial factors for different governments across the world to promote EVs among consumers. Governments across the globe are presenting monetary benefits to consumers to support the adoption of EVs further. Below are some of the incentives and benefits provided by various regional governments to support EV adoption: In February 2019, the Indian government announced the second phase of the Faster Adoption and Manufacturing of (Hybrid) EVs in India (FAME India) scheme (will continue till March 2024). It doubled the budget allocated for the second phase. This scheme aims to reduce the purchase price of hybrids and EVs, with a focus on off-road vehicles used for public or shared transportation (buses, rickshaws, and taxis) and private two-wheelers.
For instance, in 2022, China announced the extension of its decade-long central subsidy program for NEVs till 2023. The policy developments also include restricting investment in new internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicle manufacturing plants. The Chinese government has stipulated the use of differentiated incentives for vehicles based on their battery characteristics, such as zero-emission vehicles, credits, and subsidies under the new energy vehicle mandate. These factors are driving the electric vehicle (EV) test equipment market during the forecast period.
The emergence of digital testing is a primary trend in the market. The advent of digital technologies is bringing major changes to the EVs testing. Many EV test equipment providers are harnessing cutting-edge technologies, such as a virtual testing platform, to transform their service offerings. Physical inspection of vehicles is widely being replaced by digital inspection.
For instance, Volkswagen (VW) Group, in April 2021, collaborated with Red Hat to deploy a virtual testing system for its electric research and development department. The department uses the system to test and adjust electronic control units (ECUs) along with enhancing the technologies that support intelligent, connected vehicles. Such developments are expected to propel the demand for EV test equipment, which will provide growth to the market in focus during the forecast period.
Lack of appropriate skillsets for testing is a major market challenge. Correctly extracting information from an EV testing system is crucial, even with the most suitable setup. A lack of knowledge in this area can lead to errors and inaccurate results. To avoid this, the testing system operator must have a deep understanding of EV testing procedures, drive cycles, and system functioning.
Moreover, they must also be capable of data acquisition, processing, and making independent judgments. A wrong selection of operators can result in measurement inaccuracies, and the market currently lacks the required skill sets. This may lead to a skill shortage by 2027, affecting the EV industry negatively during the forecast period.

The hybrid electric vehicles segment was valued at USD 23.60 million in 2018. As the popularity of HEVs is growing, major automakers are tapping into this opportunity by ramping up production and testing, which in turn increases the demand for EV test equipment. The market in focus will continue to grow during the forecast period due to increasing demand and high production figures. For instance, under its electrification campaign, Volkswagen plans to launch around 60 hybrid models by the end of 2030. Several international automakers are entering into JV with domestic brands to develop and produce numerous HEVs. Thus, the growing number of HEVs development is anticipated to increase the demand for HEVs test equipment for various vehicle components, such as motor and torque performance. This, in turn, will propel the growth of the market focus during the forecast period.
The EV component segment comprises power electronics, fuel injection pump testing, inverter testing, and AC/DC EVSV. The segment's growth is fueled by the rising adoption of EVs, the need for high-performance motors with increased power, and the focus on component efficiency. companies are expanding their testing capacity to keep up with the increasing production of EV components. For example, Intertek expanded its EV testing facility in North America in May 2022. The government's emphasis on ethanol fuel injection in hybrid vehicles to reduce emissions is driving companies to align with flex-fuel injection testing. TUV Rheinland AG offers ethanol tests and assessments in fuel injection pumps for hybrid vehicles. These factors will boost the growth of the EV components segment and, in turn, the electric vehicle (EV) test equipment market during the forecast period.
APAC is estimated to contribute 60% to the growth of the global electric vehicle (EV) test equipment market during the forecast period. Technavio’s analysts have elaborately explained the regional trends and drivers that shape the market during the forecast period.
