Air pollution causes several diseases, some even becoming fatal at advanced stages. As vehicular discharge impacts public health, it may have a dangerous impact on the environment. Governments across the region are investing heavily in infrastructure development to reduce ozone-depleting compounds and air pollution levels. This will be accomplished by enacting strict government regulations on automobile emissions. The electric bus market is expanding as a result of these standards. Electric buses are eco-friendly since they do not emit any harmful pollutants. Furthermore, electric buses are efficient and provide clean urban transportation, giving a viable alternative to maintaining clean air in metropolitan areas. As a result, many urban areas in countries progressively accept e-transport systems. The governments across the region enforced strict pollution standards, and directives are accelerating the use of electric buses, driving the market growth across the region.
With the new features and technologies, vendors can attract new customers and expand their footprints in emerging markets. This factor is likely to drive the North America electric bus market. The North America electric bus market is expected to grow at a good CAGR during the forecast period.
