Hero Electric
Hero Electric has once again emerged as the largest seller of electric scooters in August. Hero Electric was the only company which registered sales of more than 10,000 electric scooters last month. Last month, Hero Electric topped the list with sales of 10,476 electric scooters. In July this year, the company sold 8,954 units of electric scooters.
Hero Electric’s Optima CX, Photon, Atria, NYX and Flash are some of the best selling models of the company. Hero Electric is going to set up a new factory in Ludhiana, Punjab to increase its production capacity. This is the company’s second plant in Ludhiana. The company claims that this is a state-of-the-art plant which is being built on the sidelines of the company’s old plant.
Okinawa Autotech
Okinawa Autotech managed to maintain its lead in the second position. Last month, Okinawa sold 8,554 units of electric scooters. In July 2022, the company had sold 8,096 units. In May this year, the company recorded the highest ever sales of 9,290 units.
Okinawa is one of the companies whose electric scooters caught fire. The company also had to go through government scrutiny after which the company had also recalled some of its defective models.
Ather Energy
Ather Energy was the leader in terms of sales growth. A few months after the launch of the new generation Ather 450X, Ather has been receiving an overwhelming response from the customers. If we look at the figures, the sales of Ather have increased from 2,389 units in July 2022 to 6,410 units in August 2022. Ather sales grew by a whopping 297%.
Let us tell you, the new generation Ather 450X has been made available at a price of Rs 1.39 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi). The company has used a 3.66 kWh lithium-ion battery in it, which has increased its range to 140 km, while the old 450X had a range of only 90 km. Because of this, customers are very fond of it.
ampere vehicles
Ampere Vehicles was the fourth largest seller of scooters. Last month, the company registered sales of 6,396 electric scooters in India, up from 6,319 sold in July 2022. However, sales remained marginally lower as against 6,534 units sold in June 2022.
Ola Electric
Ola Electric sales have come down surprisingly in the last few months. After registering good sales in the two quarters of 2021 and 2022, Ola’s e-scooter sales have registered a sharp decline. Ola was able to sell only 3,421 electric scooters of the S1 Pro electric scooter in August 2022. This sales remained lower than the 3,862 units sold in July 2022. Ola sold 12,000 scooters in April this year.
