The counter-case
The case against this reading — not reported by the source.
Doubling YoY on a small base is unremarkable for accessories—Amazon doesn't disclose absolute GMV, so 2x could be off a tiny denominator. Tier 2/3 'EV demand' is likely low-ticket helmets, chargers, and decals rather than meaningful vehicle-adjacent spend. Premium bike 5x growth is almost certainly accessories for existing owners, not new buyer acquisition, and conflates aspirational browsing with conversion. Returns, fitment failures, and counterfeit parts plague this category and erode unit economics.
