According to Technavio analysts, one of the key factors contributing to the growth of the global traction batteries market is the declining Li-ion battery prices:

Global traction batteries market: Declining Li-ion battery prices

When compared to lead-acid batteries or NiMH batteries, Li-ion batteries are expensive. For example, Li-ion batteries for lift trucks are almost four times the cost of lead-acid batteries used in lift trucks. Similarly, for golf carts, the cost of a lead-acid battery is two-fifths the cost of a Li-ion battery. In the case of EVs, the manufacturing cost of EVs is almost double compared with conventional vehicles, of which a major portion of the costs incurred is associated with the battery and electronics.

According to a senior analyst at Technavio for research on energy storage, “However, the manufacturing cost of Li-ion batteries is decreasing significantly. The cost of battery packs has declined in the past few years owing to the significant increase in the scale of production. This can be attributed to the increasing adoption by the automotive industry and the development of cost-effective production methods by vendors.”
