일본의 EV 배터리 팩 시장 : 시장 점유율 분석, 산업 동향 및 통계, 성장 예측(2025-2029년)

The Japan EV Battery Pack Market size is estimated at 6.96 billion USD in 2025, and is expected to reach 7.67 billion USD by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 2.46% during the forecast period (2025-2029).

Government support and technological advancements drive the adoption of BEVs

• Electrification of vehicles has been gaining popularity in Japan over the past few years. Factors such as growing environmental concern, enforcing norms related to electric vehicles, advantages of electric vehicles over fossil fuel vehicles, and government help in terms of rebates and subsidies (such as since 2021, a subsidy of USD 7,200 has been offered on battery electric vehicles) have increased the demand of electric vehicles such BEVs and PHEVs in the country. This led to a significant growth in the demand for lithium-ion batteries for electric vehicles and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles in Japan.
• The demand for plug-in hybrid electric vehicles is higher than the battery electric vehicles. However, the majority of the market, i.e., around more than 90% of the sales of overall electric vehicles, is dominated by hybrid vehicles. Plug-in hybrid vehicles have the option of switching to fuel or battery. However, development in the charging infrastructure is encouraging people to invest in battery electric vehicles gradually.
• The requirement for lithium-ion batteries is increasing with the increased demand for battery electric vehicles. Batteries used in pure electric cars acquired a share of 88.1% in the overall sales of EVs in 2023. However, various companies are launching new products in the plug-in hybrid category. In March 2023, Toyota unveiled its new plug-in hybrid electric car, Prius, which provides a battery range of around 105 km, and bookings of the vehicle started. The introduction of new products is anticipated to strengthen Japan's electric car and battery industries during the forecast period.
