CarWale has been the undisputed number one online auto destination in the country. There were instances in the past wherein the gap from the next competitor had reduced, though none ever surpassed our traffic. With this kind of growth and the figures we have achieved, it will not be an exaggeration to say that the next competitor will be around the halfway mark.

With 3.8 million visits and an enormous 378% YoY growth, BikeWale reigns the online two-wheeler space with no competition in sight. BikeWale achieved these figures in less than half of the time taken by CarWale. Considering the bike sales figures in this country, it will not be a surprise if BikeWale grows as the single largest auto destination in the country in the next three years.

Commenting on the growing visits and the new marketing campaign, Mohit Dubey, CEO, CarWale said, "Our group traffic has grown 131% YoY. We believe that traffic is one of the most important health indicators of an online business and we are glad that we are witnessing a steady yet superlative traffic growth. This belief is further strengthened with the growth in our revenues as well as increased trust of our dealer and OEM partners."
