India has seen remarkable growth in the used two-wheeler scooters category. The scooter sales have time and again continued to be buoyant and about 40% millennials are looking for fuel-efficiency as a critical buying factor, as it will keep the bills low. As per CredR’s customer survey conducted online between January–March, Suzuki Access 125 has emerged winner in providing a mileage of 64 kpl approximately. This is followed by TVS Jupiter, Hero Pleasure and Honda Activa 6G.
“This year, we have seen an upward surge of 400% in demand for scooters. Most of the users prefer mileage scooters as it is easy for their pockets and easy to maintain their two-wheelers,” Sasidhar Nandigam, Co-founder & Chief Strategy Officer CredR, said.
He further added that CredR has seen an increase of 27% sales during January-March and demand has been seen amongst inter-city commuters such as students, job holders and small business owners. The rise in scooter demand is also a result of the second Covid wave which is again instilling a fear of public transportation in commuters.
