From 100 to 200: A Bold Expansion Vision
At the Bharat Mobility Global Expo 2025, Founder and CEO Tushar Choudhary unveiled a game-changing strategy: doubling Motovolt’s dealership footprint to 200 locations by year-end. For a Kolkata-born company that started with a vision in 2019, this expansion represents more than just numbers—it’s about making electric vehicles accessible to millions.
The journey from 35 outlets in 2022 to a projected 200 in 2026 tells a compelling growth story. Each new outlet isn’t merely a showroom; it’s a gateway for delivery riders, urban commuters, and environmentally conscious Indians to embrace sustainable mobility.
Why This Expansion Matters for Delivery Fleets
Here’s where it gets interesting: Motovolt isn’t just selling electric cycles—they’re revolutionizing India’s delivery ecosystem. The company is actively partnering with online food and grocery delivery platforms, helping them transition to zero-emission fleets.
What makes Motovolt perfect for delivery riders?
- No registration required for their e-bikes (perfect for quick fleet deployment)
- Up to 120 km range on a single charge
- Cost-effective operations for gig economy workers
- Built specifically for Indian road conditions
With over 32,000 EVs already delivered, Motovolt understands what delivery professionals need: reliability, range, and affordability.

Products Driving the Expansion
Motovolt’s retail expansion is backed by a diverse portfolio:
Latest Launches:
- Hyper One: India’s innovative pedal motorbike
- MVS7: High-speed, battery-swapping e-scooter
- URBN: Perfect for urban commutes and last-mile delivery
The URBN model particularly resonates with the delivery segment—offering 120 km range without requiring motor vehicle registration, making it ideal for quick business deployment.
Strategic Locations and Market Penetration
While headquartered at Shakespeare Sarani in Kolkata, Motovolt’s expansion strategy focuses on tier-2 and tier-3 cities where:
- Last-mile delivery is booming
- Fuel costs significantly impact rider earnings
- EV awareness is growing rapidly
- Government incentives support electric adoption
The Delivery Revolution Connection
Think about your last food delivery order. That rider probably spent 10-15% of earnings on petrol. Now imagine if they paid zero for fuel. That’s the transformation Motovolt enables.
The company’s conversations with major delivery platforms aren’t coincidental—they’re strategic. With India’s gig economy employing millions, switching to electric mobility could:
- Save riders ₹5,000-8,000 monthly on fuel
- Reduce delivery companies’ carbon footprint
- Lower operational costs significantly
- Improve rider income stability
Investment Fueling Growth
Motovolt’s expansion is backed by solid financial support:
- Raised $1.96 million in seed funding
- Investors include Vikrampati Singhania, Wami Capital, and Ankur Agarwal
- Plans to raise ₹100 crore from private equity players
- Total committed investment: ₹200 crore
What This Means for Consumers
Accessibility: With 200 outlets, finding a Motovolt showroom near you becomes significantly easier.
Service Network: More outlets mean better after-sales support, faster maintenance, and readily available spare parts.
Test Rides: Increased opportunity to experience products before buying—crucial for first-time EV buyers.
Local Employment: Each new outlet creates jobs, contributing to regional economies.
The Road Ahead
Motovolt’s doubling of retail outlets by 2026 isn’t just corporate expansion—it’s a statement about India’s electric future. From Kolkata’s tech corridors to tier-2 city delivery hubs, the company is building an ecosystem where electric mobility becomes the obvious choice, not the alternative.
For delivery professionals tired of rising fuel costs, for commuters seeking sustainable transport, and for cities choking on pollution, Motovolt’s 200-outlet network represents hope on two wheels.
As Tushar Choudhary steers this Kolkata-born company toward national prominence, one thing’s certain: the revolution on two wheels has only just begun.
