The Indian electric two-wheeler market is rapidly evolving, with Ather Energy’s EL Platform emerging as a contender against Ola Electric’s Gig and ZSeries scooters.
While Ola has aggressively captured market share through BaaS-induced affordability and feature-rich offerings, Ather’s EL Platform introduces a new dimension: premium reliability, faster charging, and Battery-as-a-Service (BaaS) financing.
Ather EL vs Ola Gig vs Ola ZSeries
Let’s explore whether the EL Platform poses a credible threat to Ola’s lineup?
Lets compare Ather Energy sales in 2023… (why 2023? Because after incorporation Ather completed 10 yrs of sale in the year 2023) … compare this to Ola which in 2026 completed 9 yrs after incorporation.
The sale makes most people think both are similar companies selling similar electric scooters… but their journey is completely different.
The mid-journey dip: Both had a dip mid -journey…In the year 2023 Ather was selling in 4-Digits for 9 mths before steadying its ship… while Ola sold for just 4 mths before steadying its ship.
Ather started slow and scaled up slowly… yet its sales fell… Ola sold briskly… then its sale slowed down before picking up once again.
By March 2026 Ola was averaging a steady 12,000 to 15,000 vehicles sales per mth. (Ather Energy was founded in 2013 & Ola Electric founded in 2017)
Ather Energy reached 10 years in the Year 2023… while Ola reached 9 yrs in the year 2026:
After 10 yrs – Ather Energy vs Ola Electric– the Mid-Journey dip
Remember that Ola had a blistering start selling Lakhs of Gen 1 and Gen 2 vehicles. Gen 1 was basically a Dutch vehicle called EterGo which was unfit for pothole filled Indian roads.
The Dutch design of single arm front “fork” scooter had to be upgraded by Ola under immense loss and upgraded to Indian “bad-road-standards” with Gen 2.
Retailpublic… DIIs and FIIs… sitting in those AC offices… in India and outside India… and evaluating e2W… you will NOT be able to make correct evaluation… UNLESS you remove the sale numbers of e2Wheelers made by ICE companies.
This is because their sale numbers are ABSOLUTELY DISPROPORTINATE to their presence/visibility on the Indian roads.
Where do these vehiclesbgo after registration? Who knows?
The Indian two-wheeler market has long thrived on affordability, fuel efficiency, and a robust resale ecosystem. For decades, commuter motorcycles and scooters were seen as reliable investments, with strong second-hand demand ensuring liquidity for owners.
However, the advent of E20 petroland the unprecedented rise of pure petrol prices to ₹167 per litre have fundamentally altered this equation, pushing the resale market for petrol-powered two-wheelers into steep decline.
The Indian two-wheeler market is undergoing a profound transformation, reflected in Ola Electric’s robust sales figures. In April 2026, Ola sold 12,208 units, followed by 15,139 units in May, and 16,144 units in June, culminating in a quarterly total of 43,491 units. This steady month-on-month (MoM) growth underscores the accelerating adoption of electric mobility in India.
Quarterly Sales of Ola Electric up to 30 June 2026 – Increasing every month.
India’s electric two-wheeler revolution is no longer confined to metropolitan pockets—it has spread across the length and breadth of the country.
The sales data reveals fascinating insights into how different states are embracing sustainable mobility, with some regions emerging as clear leaders in adoption.
Top selling e2Whleer states of India – Uttar Pradesh comes in as a surprise second.
Maharashtra tops the chart with 1,55,056 units, reflecting its strong urban demand, robust infrastructure, and policy support.
Most people will never be content trading just 1big trade or 3 big trade or even 6 times a year.. or wven once a month… they will WANT to do it everyday… they will want to sit before the screen and analyze… analyze and analyse… look for chart pattern… TRADING IS A COMPULSIVE IMPULSIVEhabit… most gamblers have this habit.
Chillar/Bhikari mentality (poor Dad mentality)
If you are a girl and see your fiancee has multiple screens like the above… showing charts and data… RUN… leave his house and end your relationship with him… same for a boy… escape if you see your girl does this… he is on his way for financial ruin... no matter how much money he/she currently earns.
