The combination of an electric motor with all electrical capabilities and a small onboard internal combustion engine (ICE) for extended-range capabilities is what makes up plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs). Unlike hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), PHEVs have a battery pack which is recharged by plugging into a standard electrical outlet. The battery pack serves as the primary source of power for relatively short distances (electric range). When this range is exceeded and the battery is depleted to a certain level, the vehicle switches to hybrid mode. In some models, this includes utilizing the energy re-captured from regenerative braking, turning off the electric motor, and allowing the ICE to take over completely. The unique advantage of plug-in hybrids is that they combine the environmentally beneficial operation of electric vehicles and the operational abilities of ICEs, as well as refueling, if necessary.

Analyst Opinion

The Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles market in Russia is experiencing significant growth and development.

Customer preferences:
Russian consumers are increasingly opting for Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles due to their environmental benefits and cost-saving advantages. With growing concerns about air pollution and climate change, there is a rising demand for more sustainable transportation options. Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles offer a solution by reducing emissions and providing greater fuel efficiency compared to conventional vehicles. Additionally, the lower fuel and maintenance costs of these vehicles make them an attractive option for cost-conscious consumers.

Trends in the market:
One of the key trends in the Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles market in Russia is the expansion of charging infrastructure. As the number of Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles on the roads increases, there is a growing need for accessible and convenient charging stations. This has led to the establishment of more charging points across the country, including in residential areas, workplaces, and public spaces. The availability of a well-developed charging infrastructure is crucial for the widespread adoption of Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles. Another trend in the market is the introduction of government incentives and policies to promote the adoption of Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles. The Russian government has implemented measures such as tax breaks, subsidies, and exemptions to encourage consumers to switch to electric and hybrid vehicles. These incentives aim to make Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles more affordable and appealing to a wider range of consumers. Government support plays a crucial role in driving the growth of the Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles market in Russia.

Local special circumstances:
Russia's vast territory and harsh climate present unique challenges for the adoption of Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles. The country's extreme weather conditions, especially during the winter months, can affect the performance and range of electric vehicles. Cold temperatures can reduce battery efficiency and impact the overall driving range. To address this issue, automakers are developing technologies to improve the cold-weather performance of Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles, such as advanced battery heating systems.

Underlying macroeconomic factors:
The growth of the Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles market in Russia is also influenced by macroeconomic factors. The country's economic stability and improving purchasing power of consumers have contributed to the increasing demand for electric and hybrid vehicles. Additionally, the global shift towards sustainable transportation and the advancement of technology have made Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles more attractive and accessible to a wider audience. As the market continues to evolve, it is expected that the Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles market in Russia will experience further growth and development.

Methodology

Data coverage:

The data encompasses B2C enterprises. Figures are based on the sales of new passenger cars. Data on the specifications of the sold vehicles is based on the base models of the respective makes.

Modeling approach:

Market sizes are determined through a bottom-up approach, building on specific predefined factors for each market segment. As a basis for evaluating markets, we use company reports and websites, vehicle registries, car dealers, and environment agencies among other sources. In addition, we use relevant key market indicators and data from country-specific associations, such as GDP and car stock per capita. This data helps us estimate the market size for each country individually.

Forecasts:

In our forecasts, we apply diverse forecasting techniques. The selection of forecasting techniques is based on the behavior of the relevant market. For example, we use the ARIMA model for the Passenger Cars market. The main drivers are GDP per capita and consumer spending per capita.

Additional notes:

The data is modeled using current exchange rates. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine war are considered at a country-specific level. The market is updated twice a year. In some cases, the data is updated on an ad hoc basis (e.g., when new, relevant data has been released or significant changes within the market have an impact on the projected development).
