From office-goers zipping through traffic on Activas to students cruising the streets on their Aerox or Ola S1, scooters have become India’s heartbeat on two wheels.

📈 The Numbers Say It All

According to the latest industry data, FY2025 witnessed a 17% year-on-year growth in scooter sales. Here's the quarterly breakdown:
