Honda 2Wheelers India Sales Cross 25 Lakh Units In Telangana

Honda Motorcycle and Scooter India (HMSI) has crossed the sales milestone of 25 lakh units in the state of Telangana. The two-wheeler maker achieved the landmark figure in nearly two decades since it began operations in 2001 with the Honda Activa. Interestingly, the popular offering dominates the two-wheeler market in the state, with a 72 per cent market share in the scooter segment. The newfound need for personal mobility has further amplified two-wheeler sales for the brand in Telangana in recent times. Do note these are cumulative sales since the state of Telangana was formed in 2014 and was previously a part of Andhra Pradesh.
