The manual segment to maintain its leadership status throughout the forecast period
Based on battery capacity, the less than 500mah segment held the highest market share in 2025, accounting for more than one-third of the global automotive lithium-sulfur battery market revenue and is estimated to maintain its leadership status throughout the forecast period, rapid growth in adoption of electric vehicles and their applications in real life are increasing the demand for less than 500mah of lithium-sulfur batteries. However, the between 501 to 1000mAh battery capacity segment is projected to manifest the highest CAGR of 26.5% from 2026 to 2035, as it provides longer driving ranges for electric vehicles (EVs) and enable more efficient energy storage solutions in the automotive sector.
The battery electric vehicle segment to maintain its leadership status throughout the forecast period
Based on propulsion type, the battery electric vehicle segment held the highest market share in 2025, accounting for nearly two-third of the global automotive lithium-sulfur battery market revenue and is estimated to maintain its leadership status throughout the forecast period. Moreover, the battery electric vehicles are projected to manifest the highest CAGR of 26.3% from 2026 to 2035, owing to advantages such as changing perception toward adoption of electric vehicles. In addition, simple technology usage and low maintenance of battery electric vehicles as compared to other electric vehicles, further supplements the growth of battery electric vehicles (BEVs) across the globe.
The subscription model segment to maintain its lead position during the forecast period
Based on vehicle type, the passenger vehicle segment accounted for the largest share in 2025, contributing to more than two-thirds of the global automotive lithium-sulfur battery market revenue, due to the demand for electric vehicles (EVs) continues to grow in passenger vehicles, the development and adoption of advanced battery technologies such as lithium-sulfur batteries have been explored to improve the performance and range of EVs. Moreover, the two-wheeler is expected to portray the largest CAGR of 26.7% from 2026 to 2035 and is projected to maintain its lead position during the forecast period. This is owing to their higher energy density and potential for cost reductions compared to traditional lithium-ion batteries.
Asia-Pacific to maintain its dominance by 2035
Based on region, Asia-Pacific held the highest market share in terms of revenue in 2025, accounting for nearly two-fifths of the global automotive lithium-sulfur battery market revenue, owing to the increasing demand for electric vehicles, government support, and the presence of established automotive and battery manufacturers. This initiative expected to increase the market for electric vehicles in the region, benefiting growth of the automotive lithium-sulfur battery market during the forecast period. However, the Europe region is expected to witness the fastest CAGR of 26.5% from 2026 to 2035, owing to the European countries strict regulations toward the environment, which played a vital role in the development of lithium-sulfur batteries as modern lithium-ion batteries used cobalt metal, which is harmful for the environment.
