Electric Two wheeler Sales Report: July 2023
Electric two-wheeler sales which had witnessed a significant decrease in June this year, are slowly growing and are experiencing an increase in July despite the FAME II subsidy reduction. The total two-wheeler sales in India increased by more than 11% MoM despite the subsidy reduction.
With the reduction of the FAME II subsidy from 40 to 15 percent, the immediate impact on the electric vehicle ecosystem in India was a significant rise in price and a decline in sales. In order to address the situation and increase sales, many of the EV manufacturers employed discount offers. This move was a fantastic effort to draw in more customers. It introduced a new wave in the EV Industry and led to an increase in sales this month.
