Ather Energy sales milestone details

Over half of Ather’s sales have come in the past 18 months

Ather’s growth has been far from linear, according to Autocar Professional. Sales remained modest between 2018 and 2021, partly due to the pandemic. The company crossed 50,000 units annually for the first time in 2022 (54,769 units), before doubling that figure in 2023 to 1,11,812 units. It followed that up with 1,36,513 units in 2024, while 2025 marked a significant step forward with 2,14,985 units – up 57 percent year on year – giving Ather a 16 percent share of India’s record 1.34 million-unit electric two-wheeler market at the time.

The momentum has only continued in 2026. Between January 1 and June 25, Ather delivered 1,63,788 units – already 76 percent of its 2025 tally, accounting for a 17.53 percent share of the 9,34,141 electric two-wheelers sold in India so far this year. March 2026 was the company’s best-ever month with 36,362 units, and Ather has now crossed the 20,000-unit monthly mark eight times in the past nine months. At its current pace, the company is on track to sell around 3,25,000 units this calendar year.

The Rizta, launched in April 2024, has been the biggest contributor to Ather’s recent growth. The family e-scooter now accounts for nearly 75 percent of the company’s monthly volumes, and its cumulative sales crossed 3 lakh units in just 25 months following its launch.

Ather is now gearing up for its next phase of growth on two fronts. The company’s new EL platform is designed to underpin a wider range of electric scooters, while its third manufacturing plant in Maharashtra, with an eventual annual capacity of 10 lakh units, is expected to begin the first phase of operations (42,000 units per month) by March 2027.
