EV sales expected to surpass 2021’s figures despite supply chain disruptions - IDTechEx report
According to the document, the expectation is for the electric car market to surpass 2021 sales of ~6.4 million units, as sales for the first half of the year have already reached 3.5 million for both battery-electric and plug-in hybrid.In terms of trends, IDTechEx sees 800V powertrains becoming more popular despite the added costs, with GM, Hyundai, and VW undergoing a transition from the current ~400V. platforms, following in the footsteps of start-ups such as Lucid Motors.
The experts at IDTechEx explain that, overall, there is a compelling value proposition for 800V. As an example, they pose the idea of a 200-mile WLTP car with a 50kWh battery achieving a drive cycle efficiency improvement of 10% that reflects a transition to an 800V platform, silicon carbide inverters, and lowering the current in the system, improving performance to ~4.4 miles per kWh.
The analysis points out that if this scenario is scaled to 50 million electric cars, ~225GWh of pressure would be removed from the battery supply chain. This is more than the total battery demand IDTechEx expects from off-road electric vehicle sectors by 2043, including construction, marine, and sky taxis. The market researcher notes that another growing trend is and will be optimizing EV high-voltage cabling to reduce the vehicle’s weight.
