Medial

Ola Electric has reclaimed its leading position in the electric two-wheeler (EV 2W) segment, capturing a 24.91% market share in January. According to Vahan data, the company sold 24,330 units during the month. TVS Motors took the second spot, selling 23,788 units, just slightly behind Ola. Bajaj Auto, another prominent player in the Indian automobile sector, secured a 21.80% market share with 21,294 units sold in January. This marks a significant turnaround for Ola Electric, as both Bajaj and TVS Motor had surpassed the company by a considerable margin in December. Ola attributes its strong performance to its robust S1 portfolio and the recent expansion of its sales and service network, which now spans 4,000 stores nationwide. An Ola Electric spokesperson commented, “It has been an impressive start to the year for us as we emerged as a clear leader in the EV 2W industry yet again. While we are committed to further cementing our position in the segment, our recently launched Gen-3 portfolio has set new benchmarks in performance and reliability across the 2W industry in India. With our diverse EV propositions across premium and mass-market segments and expansion of our sales network beyond tier-1 and tier-2 cities, Ola Electric will continue to lead India’s transition towards #EndICEAge.” Ather Energy, a Bengaluru-based startup, recorded sales of 12,895 units, capturing a 13.20% market share. The company, led by Tarun Mehta, is also nearing its initial public offering (IPO) after receiving approval from the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI). Beyond the top four players, companies like Greaves Electric Mobility (3,611 units) and PURE EV (1,650 units) were making efforts to carve out their niche in the competitive market. Hero Motocorp, despite its stronghold in the petrol two-wheeler segment, continued to face challenges in the EV space, selling only 1,615 units. Bgauss Auto (1,451 units) and Revolt Intellicorp (1,060 units) maintained their dedicated customer bases, while Kinetic Green Energy trailed with just 806 units sold.
