Indian Two Wheeler Market

The Indian Two-Wheeler market consists mainly of scooters and motorcycles. The market has experienced significant growth in recent years due to increased urbanization and government subsidies. The Two-Wheeler is also more affordable for most of the middle-class population. With the increase of delivery services for everything from groceries to medicines the Two-Wheeler also affords a way for a lot of Indians to make a living. As the cost of petrol is high EVs become more attractive over the long term even though their initial cost is higher than petrol powered two wheelers.

The market for Two Wheelers was estimated at 302.2 Billion USD in 2022 and is expected to grow to 411 Billion by 2032 which is a 3.50% compound annual growth rate (CAGR).  (Source:marketresearchfuture)
