Rising Electric Scooter Adoption and Smart Mobility Features Propel Market Growth

Electric scooters and premium scooters are increasing demand for keyless access as these vehicles are built around digital dashboards, mobile apps, Bluetooth pairing, and connected services. As riders expect easier locking, unlocking, locating, and starting functions, OEMs are adding smart access as a value feature. This directly supports demand for connected two-wheeler technology, keyless ignition systems, and smart vehicle authentication. These factors further propel the global two-wheeler keyless entry system market growth.

• For instance, in May 2025, IEA reported electric two- and three-wheelers held around 15% of global sales in 2024, supporting connected access adoption.

MARKET RESTRAINTS

High Cost Sensitivity in Mass Two-Wheelers Restrains Wider Adoption

Many motorcycles and scooters are sold in price-sensitive markets where customers mainly focus on fuel economy, durability, and purchase price. Keyless systems add electronic components such as sensors, antennas, smart keys, control units, and immobilizers, which increases vehicle costs. This slows adoption in entry-level ICE motorcycles and mopeds, especially where customers may not pay extra for vehicle convenience features.

MARKET OPPORTUNITIES

Growth in Premium Scooters Creates Strong Opportunity for Smart Access Systems

Premium scooters are becoming important carriers of scooter security solutions, smart keys, Bluetooth access, and app-linked security. Buyers in urban and semi-urban markets increasingly prefer convenience, connected displays, and safer parking features. This creates an opportunity for OEMs and suppliers to offer affordable electronic vehicle locking systems and intelligent security solutions across mid-range and premium scooter platforms.

• For instance, Honda’s CUV e: electric scooter press kit listed Smart Key operation and connected TFT features, showing premium scooter-ready access integration.

MARKET CHALLENGES

Cybersecurity and Supply Chain Risks Challenge Smart Access Expansion

As two-wheelers become more connected, keyless systems must protect riders from hacking, signal misuse, unauthorized access, and data privacy risks. At the same time, these systems depend on imported chips, NFC modules, batteries, antennas, and sensors. Any disruption caused by tariffs, geopolitical tensions, or component shortages can delay production and raise costs for advanced motorcycle electronics.

Segmentation Analysis

By Two-Wheeler Type

Scooters Segment Dominated Due to Urban Suitability and Easy Access

On the basis of two-wheeler type, the market is segmented into motorcycles, scooters, and mopeds.

The scooters segment dominated in 2025 as they are widely used for daily urban mobility and are more convenience-focused than many commuter motorcycles. Premium scooters and electric scooters often include smart keys, app connectivity, digital dashboards, and scooter security solutions. Their step-through design, city usage, and parking needs make anti-theft security systems and keyless access more valuable for riders.

By Technology Type

Smartphone/Bluetooth-Based Keyless Entry Segment Led Due to Connected Electric Scooters Technology

On the basis of technology type, the market is segmented into remote keyless entry, passive keyless entry, smartphone/Bluetooth-based keyless entry, and biometric/advanced access system.

The smartphone/Bluetooth-based keyless entry segment dominated in 2025 as electric scooters increasingly use mobile apps as part of the ownership experience. Riders can manage access, pairing, navigation, vehicle status, and security through smartphones. This makes connected two-wheeler technology more useful than basic remote access, especially in markets where young riders prefer digital controls and app-based mobility.

• For instance, Gogoro supports listed scooter unlocking through smart key card, app, key fob, or traditional key, providing multi-mode digital access use.

The passive keyless entry segment is expected to grow at a CAGR of 14.4% over the forecast period.

By Propulsion Type

ICE Segment Dominated Due to the Large Global Motorcycle Base

On the basis of propulsion type, the market is segmented into ICE and electric.

The ICE segment dominated the two-wheeler keyless entry system market share in 2025, as most global two-wheelers are still petrol-powered motorcycles and scooters. Even though electric models are growing faster, ICE vehicles still form the largest running and new-sales base in many countries. Keyless entry demand comes from premium ICE motorcycles, scooters, immobilizers, and remote vehicle entry systems used for convenience and theft prevention.

The electric segment is expected to grow at a CAGR of 20.5% over the forecast period.

By Access

Key Fob-Based Access Segment Dominated Due to Familiarity and OEM Fitment

On the basis of access, the market is segmented into key fob-based access, smartphone app-based access, NFC/card-based access, and biometric access.

The key fob-based access segment dominated as it is reliable, familiar, and easier for OEMs to integrate into scooters and motorcycles. It supports lock/unlock, ignition authorization, answer-back, and immobilizer functions without requiring a smartphone. This makes RFID-based vehicle access and fob-based wireless access systems practical for premium scooters, motorcycles, and aftermarket upgrades.

The smartphone app-based access segment is expected to grow at a CAGR of 17.5% over the forecast period.

By Sales Channel

OEM Segment Dominated as Smart Access Becomes Factory-Integrated

On the basis of sales channel, the market is segmented into OEM and aftermarket.

The OEM segment dominated in 2025 as keyless systems work best when integrated during vehicle production. Factory-fitted systems connect with ignition, immobilizer, dashboard, battery, wiring, and software architecture. This improves safety, reliability, warranty support, and user experience. Premium scooters, electric scooters, and motorcycles increasingly adopt OEM keyless ignition systems and electronic vehicle locking systems as built-in features.

• In March 2024, Spark Minda unveiled that its two-wheeler smart keyless system was designed and developed at its Smart Minda Technical Centre.

The aftermarket segment is expected to grow at a CAGR of 11.2% over the forecast period.

COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE

Key Industry Players

Companies Focus on Smart Access, Localization, and OEM Integration to Boost Market Competition

The competitive landscape of the global two-wheeler keyless entry system market is shaped by component suppliers, electronics companies, semiconductor manufacturers, and two-wheeler OEMs. However, the competition is not limited to one product. Companies compete through complete access systems, smart keys, antennas, control units, immobilizers, app-based access, Bluetooth modules, NFC chips, and software security.

Leading players such as Minda Corporation Limited, Mitsubishi Electric Mobility Corporation, and Minebea Access Solutions Inc. are focusing on OEM partnerships. This is primarily due to the fact that factory-fitted keyless systems are more reliable and better integrated with the vehicle’s ignition, dashboard, battery, and immobilizer. Suppliers are also developing compact and waterproof modules, as two-wheelers require durable electronics that can withstand vibration, rain, heat, dust, and frequent outdoor use. Companies with strong electronics and software capability are gaining an advantage as the market is shifting from basic mechanical locks to connected access and digital authentication.

Another important strategy is localization. In high-volume markets such as India, China, Indonesia, Vietnam, and Brazil, suppliers are trying to reduce cost by manufacturing locally and designing systems for mass-market scooters and motorcycles. This is important as the two-wheeler industry is very price-sensitive. At the same time, premium motorcycle and electric scooter brands are using keyless access as a differentiation feature.

Companies are also developing smart key technology, Bluetooth-based access, NFC-enabled systems, and RFID-based vehicle access to improve user convenience and security. Semiconductor companies support the market by offering chips and reference designs for secure authentication. Two-wheeler OEMs use these technologies to improve the ownership experience and reduce theft risk.
