TVS Motor and Hero MotoCorp Plan to Expand Electric Two-Wheeler Production Capacity
TVS Motor Company and Hero MotoCorp plan to increase their electric two-wheeler production capacities to 80,000 units per month by 2027 and mid-2028, respectively, responding to rising demand in India. TVS currently operates at 60,000-65,000 units monthly, while Hero has doubled capacity from 15,000 to 30,000 units and aims for 45,000 units by March. The electric scooter segment has surpassed 20% market penetration, with major manufacturers expanding production to meet strong consumer interest and limited dealer inventories.
