Premium Motorcycle Helmets Market Analysis
The Premium Motorcycle Helmets Market size is estimated at USD 0.91 billion in 2024, and is expected to reach USD 1.27 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 6.81% during the forecast period (2024-2029).
Over the long term, rising awareness of enhanced comfort and safety among consumers, the heightened popularity of owning a sports bike, government strict regulations on safety standards, and custom-made modifications in the aftermarket among the millennials will serve as the major determinants for the growth of the premium motorcycle helmet market across the world.
The European standard for motorcycle helmet safety, ECE 22.05 test certification, got a major update, which is effective from 2023. The new standard imposes strict regulations on manufacturers who will only be able to sell their products in Europe if it has been certified under ECE 22.06 regulation from January 2024.
Moreover, the premium motorcycle helmet market is driven by the rising sales of premium and sportbikes since buyers of these bikes prefer purchasing premium helmets for enhanced safety and protection. Various companies are actively engaging in launching premium helmet products and forming long-term partnerships to enhance their brand presence across the world. For instance,
In January 2023, Ignyte Helmets announced the expansion of its range of helmets with the new IGN-7 ECE 22.06, which meets BIS standards. Further, the company stated that their motorcycle helmets have received the more stringent Economic Commission For Europe 22.06 (ECE 22.06) certification and have additionally been homologated for the US Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards.
Asia-Pacific is the largest market, driven by the rising sales of electric two-wheelers and sports bikes in India and China, coupled with the large number of two-wheeler OEMs operating in these countries. Europe and North America are projected to be the next biggest markets because of the strong culture of performance motorcycling and high sales of premium superbikes, along with the presence of many motorcycle helmet OEMs.
