GermanyGermany has been a leading market for e-bikes in Europe, but the boom is slowing down, according to a study by EY Parthenon. In 2025, e-bikes accounted for 85% of Germany's total bicycle sales revenue, more than any other European country. The overall European e-bike market generated nearly ten billion euros in revenue, with almost half of that coming from Germany. Over half of bicycles sold in Germany were electric, compared to 57% in Austria. However, growth in e-bike sales has stalled, with 30% of all bicycles sold across Europe being e-bikes—same as the previous year. Prices for e-bikes have dropped by 4%, while traditional bikes remained stable. The German bike industry faces challenges such as high inventory levels and cautious consumers due to inflation, which are putting pressure on manufacturers and retailers.
