Regional Performance Highlights

Regional differentiation is prominent in the battery value chain. By 2035, North America is projected to command roughly 30 % share of the global electric vehicle battery market, while Europe is expected to account for around 14 %, and the Asia Pacific region nearly 40 % of total demand across 2026-2035. These regional shares highlight the strategic importance of Asia Pacific as well as growing localisation in North America and Europe.

Within this regional context, the Asia Pacific market remains dominant today-as multiple industry reports show that manufacturing capacity and demand are heavily concentrated in countries such as China, Japan and South Korea.

Segment Demand and Use-Case Analysis

Segment-wise, in terms of battery chemistry, the lithium-ion battery segment is projected to hold approximately 60 % share by 2035. In the end-use vehicle market, passenger cars are expected to account for about 50 % share by 2035, while the overall automotive sector (including commercial/industrial vehicles) is poised to represent around 38 % share by 2035. These segment estimates reflect both the dominance of passenger EVs as well as the continued relevance of battery systems across multiple vehicle types.

These numbers underscore critical implications: battery manufacturers must scale lithium-ion production, automotive OEMs will continue to prioritize vehicle-battery integration for cars, and supply chain actors must support both automotive and non-automotive applications.

In summary, the electric vehicle battery market is at a pivotal stage-supported by strong demand growth, differentiated regional dynamics, and distinct segment opportunities.

Top Market Trends

Several significant trends are reshaping the electric vehicle battery market. I highlight four of the most material developments:

Chemistry Innovation & Alternative Battery Technologies

Advances in battery chemistry remain a major driver of competitive differentiation in the electric vehicle battery market. For example, companies are developing next-generation batteries such as lithium-sulfur or solid-state systems that aim to reduce reliance on expensive raw materials (nickel, cobalt) and improve energy density or charging speeds. The broader drive toward cost reduction, improved cycle life and enhanced safety is pushing investment in alternate chemistries and battery formats.

Digitalisation, AI and Battery Management Systems

The battery supply chain is becoming increasingly digitalised. Sophisticated battery formation, management systems and AI-driven analytics are emerging as enablers of performance, durability and safety in batteries powering EVs. For instance, recent announcements show that battery-formation and testing systems increasingly incorporate AI and advanced measurement capabilities. In the electric vehicle battery market, such digital solutions are critical to enhancing reliability, reducing battery degradation and optimising lifecycle costs.

Sustainability, Recycling & Circular Economy

Given the raw-material intensity of lithium-ion batteries for EVs, issues of recycling, second-life use and sustainable sourcing are now front-of-mind for market participants. Many battery manufacturers and OEMs are exploring recycling processes and closed-loop supply chains. The electric vehicle battery market is under pressure to implement more sustainable value chains, especially as material scarcity and environmental regulation influence supplier decisions.

Recent Company Developments

Below are highlights of major players and developments that are shaping the electric vehicle battery market in the past 12 months. These examples illustrate how companies are taking strategic action to capture value in this space.

1. LG Energy Solution (South Korea) - LG announced a significant battery-supply contract valued at about USD 4.3 billion, covering a multi-year period for supply of EV batteries, reportedly linked to large-scale EV manufacturing. Additionally, LG is advancing its technology roadmap-seeking to reduce nickel content in cathodes, develop dry-electrode coatings and accelerate mid-nickel technologies for cost reduction. The company is also adjusting investments amid "market volatilities," reallocating capacity toward LFP and ESS applications.

2. Contemporary Ampere Technology Co. Ltd. (CATL, China) - Maintains leadership in the global electric vehicle battery market; one recent development includes a major share offer to fund expansion into Europe. CATL is a key source of cells for many OEMs and continues to expand capacity and chemistry innovation.

3. Samsung SDI (South Korea) - Recent reporting shows that its installation volume is declining year-on-year while competition intensifies. Moreover, Samsung's global battery installations show signs of under-utilization: H1 2025 capacity utilization is about 50 % on average, according to industry sources.

4. SK On (South Korea) - SK On is stepping up alliances and material-value-chain collaboration. For example, it entered into a collaboration agreement with BASF to evaluate cathode-active-material opportunities in North America and Asia-Pacific.

5. Panasonic Energy (Japan/USA) - Highlighted as expanding its giga factory footprint in North America (Kansas facility) and reinforcing its commitment to sustainable production with the use of renewables, aligning with its battery strategy.

These snapshots illustrate that the electric vehicle battery market is being shaped by major manufacturer investment decisions, solidification of supply-chain partnerships, chemistry innovation and regional supply-chain realignment.
