Market Trends and Dealer Insights
FADA President C S Vigneshwar stated, “The commercial three-wheeler segment continues to see demand, especially in the goods category. However, financing constraints and pricing pressures are affecting growth.”
The increase in E-Rickshaw (Goods) sales highlights the growing demand for last-mile delivery solutions, particularly in urban and semi-urban markets. Meanwhile, passenger three-wheelers continue to hold steady, driven by demand for shared mobility.
Outlook for March 2025
Looking ahead, dealers anticipate improved sales momentum in March, backed by government initiatives, demand for electric three-wheelers, and festival-driven market sentiment. However, challenges such as high interest rates and supply chain constraints remain.
For those looking to invest in a three-wheeler commercial vehicle, 91trucks provides expert insights, comparisons, and the best deals available in the market.
