Siddhartha Lal, managing director, Eicher Motors, said, “We recorded our best-ever festive performance, introduced exciting new motorcycles, and took our first step into electric mobility with the debut of our EV brand, Flying Flea. With a strong and diverse product portfolio, we are well on track to meet the evolving needs of riders across the world. Even as the commercial vehicle industry remained sluggish, VE Commercial Vehicles grew volumes quarter-on-quarter with strengthened market share in all segments. With this momentum across both motorcycle and commercial vehicle businesses, we are confident of continued success in the future as well.'
Govindarajan, CEO of Royal Enfield and whole-time director, EML, said, “Royal Enfield has continued to strengthen its position in the mid-size motorcycle segment recording its best-ever quarter, driven by a robust demand for our motorcycles across the globe. In a bid to further strengthen our global presence, we’ve set up our first fully owned CKD facility outside India in Thailand. Our investments in Thailand reinforce our commitment to growing in the Asia-Pacific region. As we move forward, we will continue to deliver exceptional motorcycles and meaningful experiences for the motorcycling enthusiasts across the world.”
Vinod Aggarwal, MD and CEO of VECV, said, “VECV posted market-share gains in all segments and recorded a solid third quarter in a market that had still not recovered from the slowdown during the elections and uneven monsoon season. In the quarter, Eicher was #1 in market share in the Light and Medium duty truck segment and recorded its highest Q3 sales of buses. Reflecting our focus on delivering uptime and industry leading service support to customers, VECV recorded a growth of over 25% in parts sales over Q3 last year. With the recent ‘electric first’ launch of the Eicher Pro X small truck, VECV is well poised to lead the industry transition to sustainable and efficient last-mile logistics.”

Vinod Aggarwal will continue to be MD and CEO at VE Commercial Vehicles (EML’s joint venture with the Volvo Group), while B. Govindarajan will retain his role as the CEO of Royal Enfield.
