Argentina Road Transportation Vehicle Market Size, Share, Opportunities, And Trends By Vehicle Type (Oil Fuel Based, Biofuel Based, Natural Gas Based, E Fuel Based, Hydrogen Based, Electric Vehicle), And By States - Forecasts From 2024 To 2029

The Argentina road transport vehicles market is anticipated to expand at a high CAGR over the forecast period.

The majority of Argentina has two-lane national and provincial routes which makes road transportation an essential part of Argentina. The general public of Argentina uses public transport rather than personal cars to move around in the cities, especially during common business hours, since parking can be both difficult and expensive.

In the urban areas of Argentina, the main transportation system is by bus, or it is also called colectivo, which are the bus lines that transport millions of people every day in and around the larger cities. Moreover, they have a bus rapid transport system known as Metrobus. Buenos Aires additionally has an underground transport system, the only one in the country. This increasing demand for public transport will grow demand for public transport vehicles in Argentina.

INTRODUCTION:

Argentina’s road transport vehicles market encompasses commercial vehicles that travel on highways for the transportation of goods, including public transport vehicles like buses and cabs for day-to-day travel around Argentina's cities and passenger vehicles for personal use. With the rapid rise in trade and transport of goods, the growing popularity of e-commerce, and rising demand for public transport in Argentina, they have long-distance buses that are fast, affordable, and comfortable. They have become the primary means of long-distance travel since railway privatizations in the early 1990s greatly downsized Argentina's passenger rail service, and plane tickets are more expensive. This will be responsible for propelling the market.

Moreover, the rising demand for electric vehicles (EVs) in Argentina to be used as commercial, passenger, and public transport vehicles and switch from fuel-based vehicles to a more efficient and eco-friendly option will drive the market growth in the forecast period. EVs are more efficient because they emit less harmful substances into the environment, and they are cheaper to recharge once they run out of power compared to fuel rates, which are rising continuously.

MARKET DRIVERS:

The rapid rise in demand for EVs is predicted to propel the market.

The innovations and developments in the automotive industry have made electric vehicles more cost and time-efficient, producing less harmful environmental emissions. The demand for commercial vehicles for goods transportation and public transport is rising in Argentina but using fuel-engine commercial vehicles is more costly and harmful to the environment. Therefore, commercial EVs and the use of electric vehicles in public transport are rising in demand as its eco-friendly and cost-effective. People are also switching to EVs for personal use, which will drive Argentina’s road transport vehicle market over the forecast period.

• The growing need for public transport is anticipated to grow in the market.

The reason for the majority of the growth in road transportation in Argentina is because of the rapid growth of the need for public transport in the country over the years. People like to travel by bus or cabs, especially during business hours, as the parking facility is expensive and time-consuming. This is a major reason for the increase in demand for public transport vehicles for the general public to travel within the city, which is time-efficient. Additionally, in Argentina, the use of public transport is growing significantly, which is, in turn, going to help the market grow significantly.

MARKET RESTRAINT:

The price of moving and transporting goods has increased over the years. So, this rising cost of trade by commercial road vehicles in Argentina and the rising need for public transport in the region for daily travel with rapid growth in fuel prices is a major hindrance in Argentina’s road transport vehicle market growth. This can lead to people switching over more economical options over road transport which can slow down the market. There is no proper infrastructure for commercial EVs, passenger EVs, and electric buses or cabs for public transport, like charging stations in underdeveloped regions in the country, which is anticipated to restrain the market in the forecast period.
