TVS Motor Sales Breach 7 Lakh Mark in October 2026 as EV Dispatches Surge 120%
TVS Motor Company registered a standout operating performance in October 2026, with total wholesales crossing the 7-lakh milestone. The Chennai-based two- and three-wheeler major reported total sales of 7,00,134 units, representing a 28.81% year-on-year increase compared to 5,43,557 units dispatched during the corresponding festive month in October 2025.
The strong performance was underpinned by broad-based growth across domestic retail channels, accelerating momentum in international business, and an exponential uptick in electric vehicle (EV) dispatches.
Electric Mobility Leads the Charge
The electric two-wheeler division emerged as the fastest-growing vertical within the company's portfolio. EV sales surged 120.4% year-on-year to 71,382 units in October 2026, compared to 32,387 units sold in October 2025—adding an incremental 38,995 units in monthly volume.
Electric models, which include the iQube, Orbiter, and X electric scooters, accounted for approximately 10.6% of TVS Motor's total two-wheeler dispatches during the month, up significantly from 6.2% a year earlier. This marks an important transition for the manufacturer, with zero-emission vehicles claiming an expanding share of overall brand dispatches.
Domestic and International Segment Performance
In the core domestic market, two-wheeler volumes rose 22% to 5,14,764 units from 4,21,631 units in October 2025, buoyed by festive showroom footfalls. Domestic sales represented nearly 77% of TVS's total two-wheeler business.
TVS Motor also witnessed accelerated recovery across overseas geographies. Total international business—comprising two-wheeler and three-wheeler shipments—surged 51% year-on-year to 1,75,350 units, up from 1,15,806 units in the prior-year period. International two-wheeler dispatches alone jumped 51% to 1,55,915 units compared with 1,03,519 units in October 2025.

The simultaneous expansion of export volumes is expected to support overall blended realisations and operating leverage heading into the second half of the financial year.
