According
to the Federation of Automobile Dealers Associations (FADA), the 2W segment is
yet to show signs of any revival as it remains a drag by falling as much as
-14% in retail sales for the month of September 2022.
The
2W segment showed a growth of 9% YoY but fell by -14% from Sept’19 (non covid
period). Due to increased input costs, 2W companies raised prices by 5 times in
past one year. Apart from this, RBIs fight with inflation saw rate hikes which
continued to make vehicle loans expensive. 2W especially entry level vehicles
are finding extremely less buyers thus dragging the entire segment.
The
enquiry level in 2W segment is showing positive movement. If this segment, especially
entry level 2W also performs well improving its growth to low double digits,
overall Auto Retail will see higher growth compared to last two 2 festivals but
may still lag pre-covid numbers of October’19.
Overall,
Honda Motorcycle and Scooter India sold 2.84 lakh units in September 2022, with
Hero MotoCorp coming in second with 2.50 lakh, followed by TVS Motor Company at
third with 1.70 lakh.
Electric
two wheeler segment saw Ola Electric emerging as number one with sales of 9432
units for September 2022, followed by Okinawa with 8172 units, Hero Electric
with 7880 units Ampere with 6073 units and Ather with 6150 units.
