Despite being renowned for its great performing electric scooters, Ather Energy surprisingly sold only 16,390 electric scooters in a span of 6 months, suggesting that the EV maker has many more to pull in the same numbers as its rivals. There is scope for improvement on the front. Ather was followed by Pur Energy, which sold 9,774 units in electric two-wheeler sales between January 1 and July 9, 2022, beating TVS Motor (9,497), Revolt (8,994) and Bajaj (7,919).
