Global Motorcycle Lead Acid Battery Market

Motorcycle Lead Acid Battery Market: By Battery Type

On the basis of battery type, the global motorcycle lead acid battery market is segmented into SLI battery, lithium-ion battery, lead-acid battery and others. The SLI battery segment is expected grow during the forecast period, owing to easy to manufacture, inexpensive, reliable, mature, and capable of high discharge rates. SLI means starting, lighting, and ignition and these processes are all consuming energy that is supplied by the vehicle’s battery. The market for lead-acid battery is also expected to increase during the forecast period as they are still a great fit for larger off-grid systems. Lead-acid battery have a very low energy-to-weight ratio and a low energy-to-volume ratio. Lead–acid batteries are widely used even when surge current is not important and other designs could provide higher energy densities.
