Cite Solutions Research

Ather moved to first in Electric 2-Wheelers at 90% citation share, taking the lead from TVS iQube (91.9% in the previous edition) in a three-way engine split.

The move

Ather holds 90% overall citation share, up 0.2 percentage points from the previous edition, while TVS iQube fell 5.2 percentage points to 86.7% and dropped to rank 3.

The engines gave three different brands the top position: ChatGPT cited Ola Electric most at 90%, Gemini favored Ather at 98%, and Google AI Mode ranked TVS iQube first at 86%.

Revolt was the edition's biggest mover, gaining 6 percentage points to 7.3% citation share with 11 mentions.

Twenty new domains entered the citation pool this edition, including autocarpro.in, business-standard.com, and team-bhp.com.

What it means

The top three brands, Ather at 90%, Ola Electric at 86.7%, and TVS iQube at 86.7%, are tightly compressed, keeping this vertical competitive rather than near-locked.

The three-engine split across three different top-ranked brands is the most operationally significant finding: a brand running AI-search campaigns cannot treat any single surface as representative of the full citation landscape.

Ather's overall lead is primarily a function of Gemini's strong weighting at 98%, where it is most differentiated from rivals.

TVS iQube's 5.2 percentage-point decline after leading the previous edition is consistent with short-cycle mean reversion rather than a structural retreat; it remains ranked first on Google AI Mode at 86%.

Operators in this space should distribute citation-building activity across all three engines, since investment concentrated in any one surface reflects only a fraction of where AI recommendations are issued.
