A2021
B2018
C2017 ✓ Correct
D2019
Correct answer: (C) 2017 — The answer is 2017.
Explanation
★The answer is 2017.
★In 2017 two-wheelers were 680 out of a total of 1630, which is about 41.7 percent.
★In the later years the total grows faster, so the two-wheeler share falls below this.
★For example in 2020 the share is about 37 percent.
★So the two-wheeler percentage is highest in 2017.
★No other year exceeds the 2017 share.
★So the answer is 2017.
