Ola Electric, one of the popular EV manufacturers in India, had a productive start to 2023. The company sold 18,282 units in January 2023, which is a commendable sales figure. This shows how enthusiastically Indian consumers have adopted Ola Electric's products. The automaker's success in February 2023 surpasses all other EV manufacturers, which is quite impressive, considering the dominance of multiple well-known companies in the Indian EV sector, including Honda, Hero Electric, Bajaj, and TVS. When its most affordable model, the S1 Air, starts arriving on Indian roads, these sales figures will probably increase in the coming months.

Ola Electric: February Sales Figures
Ola Electric had its second-best monthly sales for this fiscal year in February, with 17,667 units. With a 27 per cent market share in the segment in February, it tops the standings. The firm is likely to emerge as the market leader with a total of 1,29,866 units in the first 11 months of this financial year, which will allow it to have a good lead over competing OEMs.
Meanwhile, with 15,522 units of the iQube sold domestically, TVS came in second in the rankings. The sales figures show that Ola has been succeeding with its current roster. In the upcoming few months, these sales numbers are expected to increase significantly.
Ola Electric is known to operate differently from a conventional auto manufacturer. Through the Ola app and its official website, it consistently offers discounts on its models. Furthermore, the brand provides a variety of colour choices for its scooters, which adds to its appeal.
