The APAC hybrid and electric commercial vehicles market is expected to grow from USD 15.42 billion in 2021 to USD 24.76 billion by 2028 at a rate of 8.28%. Companies are investing in zero-emission vehicle technologies to gain an early advantage in the electrification race.
Aside from electrification, local players are also working on testing and application of autonomous commercial vehicles. For instance, in February 2021, Qingling Motors (Group) Co. Ltd announced that the L3 5G autonomous logistics vehicle, developed jointly with the Chongqing University of Posts and Telecommunications, was granted Chongqing’s first commercial vehicle license for open autonomous driving tests. The vehicle carries the battery electric chassis of Qingling Motors’ EV700 and uses various advanced technologies, such as high-precision vision sensors, a 360-degree surround view system, and an artificial intelligence control algorithm.
Major players in the region are collaborating to develop and manufacture electric trucks. For instance, in October 2020, BYD Auto and Hino Motors announced that they are jointly setting up a company to develop battery-powered trucks and buses. BYD Auto Industry Co., a unit of battery producer BYD Ltd, and Hino Motors Ltd said each would supply 50% of the investment required for the company.

Such developments are expected to enhance the electric commercial vehicles market across the APAC region.
