Ola Electric and TVS Motor led in terms of electric two-wheeler sales as per list released by Federation of Automobile Dealers Associations (FADA)

The electric two wheeler market continues to show promise with new launches and several new startups entering the fray. Strong government incentives for vehicles locally produced related to a positive start to the New Year. While FAME II, introduced in 2019, allowed the segment to excel, FAME III is poised to also make an even more significant impact on sales through FY25. January 2024 saw a total of 81,608 electric two wheelers sold, up from 64,694 units sold in January 2023 up 26.14 percent YoY while there were 75,522 units sold in December 2023 with an 8.06 percent MoM growth.
