In the past, electric vehicles were seen as an “alternative.” But now? They are becoming the first choice, especially in the three-wheeler category. July’s numbers even broke the previous record of 66,014 units set in May 2025.

Let’s break down what’s driving this boom.

Mahindra 3 Wheelers: Still the Market Leader

Mahindra Last Mile Mobility (MLMM) had a fantastic month. It sold 9,767 electric 3 wheelers in July — its best ever.

→ That’s a 40% jump compared to July 2024.

Their lineup includes popular models like Treo, Treo Plus, Treo Zor, Treo Yaari, Zor Grand, e-Alfa Plus and e-Alfa Cargo. These vehicles serve both as passenger autos and loading autos, making them ideal for small businesses, city rides and cargo deliveries.

Bajaj 3 Wheelers: Massive Growth in a Short Time

Bajaj Auto saw a huge leap in July. The company sold 7,625 electric 3-wheelers, more than double its sales from July 2024.

That’s a 106% year-on-year growth.

Bajaj is gaining fast with models like the RE E-Tec 9.0, Maxima XL Cargo E-Tec 12.0 and their newer GoGo electric brand. These models are built for both passenger and cargo transport, offering:

→ Up to 248 km range
→ 5-year battery warranty
→ Safety features like auto hazard alerts and anti-roll detection

From January to July 2025, Bajaj has sold 41,143 units, grabbing a 9.54% market share.

TVS 3 Wheelers: A New Player Rising Fast

TVS is a new name in the electric 3-wheeler market, but it's already making waves.

In July 2025, TVS Motor Company sold 2,209 units, landing in the top 4 electric three-wheeler makers in the country.
Their main model, the TVS King EV Max, is growing in popularity across India — especially in states like Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Delhi, West Bengal and Jammu & Kashmir.

Check out their monthly growth:

→ January: 133 units
→ February: 309 units
→ March: 738 units
→ April: 1,207 units
→ May: 1,583 units
→ June: 1,685 units
→ July: 2,209 units

TVS now holds a 3% market share and it's rising month by month.

Other Brands — Mixed Results

Not every company had a great July. Some smaller players lost ground:

→ YC Electric: 3,635 units (down 6% YoY)
→ Saera Electric: 2,207 units (down 14%)
→ Dilli Electric Auto: 1,920 units (down 15%)
→ Piaggio Vehicles: 1,192 units (down 39%)

On the other hand, Terra Motors grew 21% (1,014 units), showing that some smaller names are still holding on.

January to July 2025: Market on a Roll

Between January and July this year, India saw 430,845 electric 3-wheelers hit the roads. That’s already about 62% of what was sold in all of last year — and we’ve still got months to go.

If this pace holds, 2025 could easily turn out to be a record-breaking year for the electric 3-wheeler space. Things are moving faster than anyone expected.

Why People Are Choosing Electric 3 Wheelers

So, what’s driving this shift toward electric 3-wheelers?

Here are a few clear reasons:

→ Lower running costs compared to petrol or diesel
→ Government subsidies and incentives
→ Environment-friendly transport
→ Growing need for last-mile delivery solutions
→ Better charging infrastructure in cities

And importantly, people now trust big names like Mahindra, Bajaj and TVS. These companies offer:

→ Stronger build quality
→ Reliable after-sales service
→ Easier financing options
→ Wider dealer networks

This is making buyers move away from smaller brands and choose more established companies.

Passenger Auto and Loading Auto – Both in Demand

There’s high demand for both types of electric 3-wheelers:

1. Passenger autos are a common choice for shared rides, especially in cities and semi-urban areas where quick, affordable transport matters.
2. Loading autos, on the other hand, are a lifeline for small businesses, local vendors and last-mile delivery helping goods move through tight streets and busy markets every day.

Electric models are being used in both categories, offering clean and affordable transport solutions.

The Road Ahead

The rise of Mahindra 3 wheelers, Bajaj 3 wheelers and TVS 3 wheelers in July 2025 is more than just a monthly success. It’s a sign that the electric 3-wheeler market in India is changing — and growing fast.

With better products, smarter features and stronger networks, these brands are setting new standards. As more people switch to electric, especially for last-mile mobility, the future of the 3 wheeler industry looks very promising.

Final Words

July 2025 might just be one of those months people remember in India’s shift toward electric vehicles. Companies like Mahindra, Bajaj and TVS aren’t just pushing numbers anymore — they’re starting to win people’s trust.

Their growth in the electric 3-wheeler space shows that clean, efficient transport is not some far-off idea — it’s actually happening. Slowly but surely, it’s becoming part of everyday life.

Whether it’s a passenger auto taking people to work or a loading auto making local deliveries, the trend is pretty clear now: India’s going electric and there’s no turning back.
