TVS Motor Remains No. 1

TVS Motor registered 53,990 electric two-wheelers in September, retaining the top position.

The company has established a strong presence in India's electric scooter market through the TVS iQube range and its expanding EV portfolio. TVS had already crossed the one-million combined electric two-wheeler sales milestone with Bajaj, Ather and Vida during the first eight months of 2026.

Bajaj Chetak Continues Its Strong Growth

Bajaj Auto recorded 48,383 registrations, placing it second in September.

The Chetak has become one of India's largest-selling electric scooter families. Bajaj's September performance also shows the increasing competition between traditional two-wheeler manufacturers in the electric segment.

Ather Holds Third Position

Ather Energy registered 30,477 electric two-wheelers in September.

The company crossed 8 lakh cumulative electric two-wheeler sales during September 2026. Its product range includes the Rizta and 450 series, while the newly launched Ather Konarc adds a more mass-market model to the portfolio.

Hero Vida Moves Ahead

Hero MotoCorp's Vida recorded 24,306 registrations in September.

Vida has shown significant growth during 2026. Its VX2 range has helped the brand expand its presence in the increasingly competitive electric scooter market.

Ola Electric Faces Stronger Competition

Ola Electric registered 13,449 electric two-wheelers in September.

The September numbers illustrate how the competitive structure of India's electric scooter market has changed. TVS, Bajaj and Vida together accounted for more than 60% of registrations during the first 28 days of September, while Ather and Ola held smaller shares.

September Market Share

Based on the latest September registrations:

  • TVS Motor: about 26.2%
  • Bajaj Auto: about 23.5%
  • Ather Energy: about 14.8%
  • Hero Vida: about 11.8%
  • Ola Electric: about 6.5%
  • Others: about 17.2%

TVS and Bajaj together accounted for approximately 49.7% of the registrations in the reported September dataset, while the top four manufacturers—TVS, Bajaj, Ather and Hero Vida—accounted for approximately 76.3%.

September Crosses the 2-Lakh Milestone

September represents an important milestone for India's electric two-wheeler industry.

Registrations were already at 1.88 lakh between September 1 and September 28, exceeding the entire August 2026 figure of about 1.83 lakh. The final September Vahan data subsequently reached 2,05,951 registrations in the latest reported dataset.

For comparison, FADA reported 1,83,204 electric two-wheeler retail sales in August 2026, representing a 67.05% year-on-year increase.

India's EV Two-Wheeler Market in 2026

The September performance comes after a strong first eight months.

TVS, Bajaj, Ather and Vida had collectively crossed 10.38 lakh electric two-wheeler sales during January–August 2026, representing an 84% increase over the same period in 2025. The broader electric two-wheeler market had reached approximately 13.6 lakh units by the end of August.

Separate Vahan-based analysis puts January–September 2026 electric two-wheeler registrations at approximately 15.6 lakh units, already exceeding India's full-year 2025 volume.

What the September Numbers Show

The September results highlight several important trends:

1. Traditional two-wheeler manufacturers are gaining strength.
TVS, Bajaj and Hero's Vida are now major forces in India's electric two-wheeler market.

2. TVS and Bajaj are very close in monthly volume.
The two companies together accounted for almost half of the September registrations reported in the latest dataset.

3. Ather remains a significant premium and technology-focused player.
The company's 30,477 September registrations put it firmly among the leading manufacturers.

4. Competition is becoming broader.
Although the top four manufacturers account for a large share, numerous other manufacturers are collectively contributing a significant volume.

5. The festive season could become an important period for EV sales.
September's crossing of the two-lakh monthly level provides a strong base heading into the October festive-sales period.

September 2026 Electric Scooter Sales: Quick Summary

TVS Motor — 53,990
Bajaj Auto — 48,383
Ather Energy — 30,477
Hero Vida — 24,306
Ola Electric — 13,449
Total reported electric two-wheelers — 2,05,951

India's electric scooter market has therefore entered the final quarter of 2026 with strong momentum. The market is increasingly being shaped not only by EV-specialist companies but also by established two-wheeler manufacturers with large dealer and service networks.

September 2026 marks another significant step in the expansion of electric mobility in India.
