What two-wheelers run on

Vahan splits a segment by fuel only across a whole calendar year, so this table covers full-year 2025 rather than CY 2025 alone — it is exact for that window.

Petrol accounts for 93.4% of two-wheeler registrations over full-year 2025, with battery-electric at 6.4%.

Two-Wheeler sales, year by year

Across the 2 completed windows in our Vahan record, two-wheeler registrations went from 1,96,48,497 in CY 2024 to 2,10,19,630 in CY 2025, up 7.0% over the stretch.

CY 2026 is still running — 9 of its 12 months are counted — so it is a part window and is never set against a full one. Its year-on-year figure compares only the months it actually holds.

Retail. Every figure is a vehicle registration recorded on the Ministry of Road Transport & Highways' Vahan 4 dashboard — the same source FADA uses — not the wholesale dispatch numbers manufacturers announce each month. Registrations reach Vahan a few days after the sale, so recent months keep rising slightly for a while after they close.
