Euler Motors raises Rs 638 Cr in Series D funding round Commercial electric vehicle manufacturer Euler Motors has raised Rs 638 crore (approximately $75 million) in its Series D round, led by Hero MotoCorp, along with participation from existing investor British International Investment (BII). This latest infusion will be instrumental in expanding the company’s sales and service network, while advancing new product development to accelerate India’s commercial EV adoption. Last month, the company announced a $60 million investment from Hero MotoCorp. Entrackr also reported that British International Investment and Caladium Investment (GIC) contributed Rs 96 crore ($11.3 million) and Rs 32 crore ($3.76 million), respectively, in the Series D round. According to Entrackr’s estimates, Euler Motors' valuation remains flat at $176 million. Euler Motors has secured investments from prominent backers such as Blume Ventures, Athera Partners, Asian Development Bank Ventures, and the Piramal Alternatives India Access Fund. With the latest funding round, the company's total capital raised stands at approximately Rs 1,420 crore. Launched in 2018, Euler Motors specializes in the production of EV three-wheelers. The company has seen strong adoption across the e-commerce, retail, and logistics segments, backed by a growing portfolio of electric vehicles, including the HiLoad EV and the StormEV. “This is a strong vote of confidence both in India’s commercial electric mobility future and in Euler Motors’ execution and products. With this fresh capital and strategic backing from new and existing investors, we are poised to accelerate our scale, continue innovating to deliver superior products, and come a few steps closer towards becoming India’s No. 1 commercial EV brand,” said Saurav Kumar, founder and CEO of Euler Motors. Euler Motors reported a more than threefold increase in operating revenue year-on-year to Rs 189 crore in FY24 from Rs 62 crore in FY23. Despite this growth, the company posted a loss of Rs 227 crore during the same period. Euler competes with players like Altigreen, Mahindra Electric, Piaggio, Kinetic Green, Tata, and others.

Commercial electric vehicle manufacturer ​​Euler Motors has raised Rs 200 crore ($24 million) more in Series C round led by new investor Piramal Alternatives India Access Fund. Existing investors British International Investment and Blume Ventures also participated in the funding tranche. Euler Motors will utilize the fresh proceeds for pan-India presence and raising servicing infrastructure in 40 cities by March 2025, Euler Motors said in a press release. With this, the Delhi-based company also claimed to raise Rs 570 crore ($68.6 million) in its series C round. The firm had raised Rs 120 crore (approximately $14.5 million) in an extended Series C round co-led by British International Investment and Blume Ventures in November last year. It has raised Rs 770 crore ($92 million) to date. As per startup data intelligence platform TheKredible, Euler was valued at around $160 million during an extended Series C round in November 2023. According to Euler Motors, its commercial electric vehicles collectively transported goods over 45 million kilometers. The company’s flagship model HiLoad EV claims to be the most powerful electric cargo three-wheeler, with a range of 170 kilometers. In FY24, the company claims to have sold 3,700 vehicles and expanded its presence from 5 to 22 cities. On the lines of many startups, Euler also laid off 10% of its employees to cut costs and navigate through a tight funding environment. For the fiscal year ending in March 2023, Euler registered Rs 61.53 crore in revenue from operations against Rs 17.57 crore in FY22. As per TheKredible, its losses spiked nearly 5X to Rs 174.73 crore in FY23 from Rs 36.33 crore in the previous year. The heavy losses could be attributed to investment made by the firm in creating infrastructure and facilities. In the electric three-wheeler space, it competes with Altigreen and legacy players like Mahindra Electric, Piaggio, Kinetic Green, and Tata, among others.
