About Electric 2 Wheelers in India

The Indian electric scooter and motorcycle market would reach a sales volume of 1,080.5 thousand by the end of 2025, exhibiting a CAGR of 57.9% between 2020 and 2025.

Due to the rising pollution and the increasing provision of financial incentives by the government, the sales of electric scooters and motorcycles are booming in India. In 2020, nearly 152.0 thousand units of electric motorcycles and scooters were sold in the country, registering a 20.6% growth annually from 2014.

In terms of retail sales value, the market is predicted to advance at a CAGR of 63.9% from 2020 to 2025 and attain a revenue of more than $1.0 billion in 2025. A key factor fueling the growth of the market is the provision of lucrative financial incentives and subsidies on electric vehicles by the government. Moreover, the government is also providing tax exemptions and purchase rebates for promoting the utilization of electric vehicles and two-wheelers in the country.

The ballooning sales of these scooters would be driven by the availability of a wide array of electric scooter models in the country, their affordable prices, and their ability to serve as excellent alternatives to the traditional fossil fuel-powered mopeds.

Hence, it can be safely said that the market will exhibit rapid growth in the coming years, mainly because of the rising implementation of favorable government policies regarding the sales of electric vehicles and the increasing consumer preference for electric scooters and motorcycles over their fuel-based variants in the country.
