The company says the B2B sales structure will have a major impact on EMotorad's next move, though their current concentration will majorly be on meeting the needs of the Indian market and exporting the rest. They will also be focusing on increasing the facility output with an aim to expand its production capacity to 2 lakh products within the next year. At present EMotorad has its presence across 170 offline dealers in 65 cities in India and has made a sale of over 9,000 e-cycles in India since its launch in 2020, besides exporting 6,300 units to the UAE, Japan, and Nepal.
