Powering the next generation of global E-mobility: How PREETO is shaping the future of E-bike drive systems

Munich - As the world accelerates its transition toward sustainable mobility, electric bicycles are rapidly evolving from simple urban transport solutions into sophisticated, high-performance mobility products. This transformation is reshaping global cycling culture, driving technological innovation, and unlocking unprecedented growth opportunities. At the heart of this shift lies the evolution of the E-bike power system, where mid-drive motors are emerging as the defining technology for the next generation of premium E-bikes.

According to Statista, the global E-bike market is projected to reach USD 62.3 billion by 2030, underpinned by strong policy support for low-carbon transport, rising health awareness, and rapid advancements in powertrain technology. Across all major regions, consumer expectations are shifting decisively toward higher performance, enhanced riding comfort, intelligent control systems, and seamless integration, all of which are redefining competitive dynamics across the industry.

A Market in Transformation: From Utility to Experience

Europe continues to represent the epicenter of high-end E-bike demand, form daily commutes to traveling and exercise supported by advanced infrastructure, and still ambitious climate policies. Consumers increasingly favor premium models that deliver natural riding feel, smooth power delivery, and refined handling, key attributes that elevate E-bikes from utility vehicles to lifestyle products.

In the United States, strong purchasing power and brand openness are fueling robust demand for performance-oriented models, particularly in urban mobility and outdoor recreation segments. Despite tariff pressures, the appetite for technologically advanced E-bikes remains resilient. Meanwhile, Southeast Asia presents high-volume, value-driven demand, where challenging terrain creates clear requirements for torque performance, climbing capability, and reliability.

China, as the world's largest E-bike manufacturing and export hub, plays a pivotal role in shaping global supply dynamics. With exports now reaching over 100 countries and regions, China's highly integrated supply chain, advanced manufacturing capabilities, and rapid innovation cycles are driving industry-wide upgrading. Domestic regulatory reforms are accelerating market consolidation, encouraging technological leadership and opening new opportunities for specialized, high-tech solution providers.

Mid-drive Motors: Redefining Power System Performance

The global shift toward mid-drive motor systems marks a fundamental upgrade in E-bike design philosophy. While traditional hub motors continue to dominate entry-level segments due to cost efficiency and structural simplicity, they face inherent limitations in weight distribution, energy efficiency, and adaptability to complex riding conditions.

Mid-drive motors, positioned at the bike's center and integrated directly with the drivetrain, deliver a step change in performance. They enable superior balance, higher torque utilization, improved energy efficiency, and more natural pedaling dynamics. These advantages have established mid-drive systems as the preferred solution for mountain bikes, trekking models, and premium urban commuters, where riding experience, handling, and efficiency are decisive purchasing criteria.

As costs decline and integration technologies mature, mid-drive motors are rapidly expanding into broader market segments, accelerating the premiumization and intelligent evolution of the global E-bike industry.

A Competitive Landscape with Space for Innovation

The global E-bike motor market remains highly concentrated at the top, led by established international players such as Bosch and Shimano (new players like DJI), whose technological depth and channel networks form significant competitive barriers. Yet the market has not reached full consolidation, leaving strategic space for new entrants with strong technical foundations, flexible development capabilities, and differentiated service models.

This environment has created fertile ground for Chinese technology-driven brands capable of combining advanced engineering, supply chain efficiency, and localized market responsiveness, a formula increasingly recognized by global OEM partners.
