The U.S. bus market will reach $11,237.7 million by 2030 at a CAGR of 4.7% during the forecast period, from $7,453.4 million in 2021. This is owing to the rapid urbanization and rising government spending on the advancement of public transport vehicles. Compared to traveling by personal vehicles, they conserve fuel and release lower levels of volatile chemicals into the air. Apart from this, they also meet economical standards, as the cost of traveling by public transport is a lot less than that of a single gallon of gasoline and diesel.
The electric category in the U.S. bus market will have the fastest growth within the propulsion segment, at a CAGR of approximately 30%, in the coming years. This can be ascribed to the subsidies, financial incentives, and tax credits offered by the federal and state governments on the sale of electric buses. Since these are high-occupancy vehicles, they certify for exemptions from toll charges in various states, such as Colorado, Georgia, California, Hawaii, and Arizona.
The schools bus category dominated the U.S. bus market, with approximately 55% share, in 2021. The same trend will be resumed in the vehicle type segment in the forecast period owing to the status of these buses as the largest sources of mass transportation in the nation. Standard buses are used extensively in schools as well as public transportation. It will maintain the dominance in the market at a higher growth rate owing to the negligible demand for customizable buses in schools.
To obtain a competitive advantage, major companies in the U.S. bus market have participated in partnerships, collaborations, and product launches in recent years. These companies are NFI Group Inc., AB Volvo, Blue Bird Corporation, BYD Company Limited, GreenPower Motor Company Inc., Lion Electric Company, Daimler Truck AG, GILLIG LLC, Navistar International Corporation, and REV Group Inc. For instance, the BZL Electric bus chassis was launched by AB Volvo in the country in September 2021. These buses are designed to help governments transition their public transportation fleets to non-emission variants.
Hence, the rapid urbanization and rising government spending on the advancement of public transport vehicles will offer lucrative opportunities in the market.
