Mumbai: Thums Up XForce, the latest innovation from Coca-Cola India’s iconic billion-dollar brand Thums Up, has taken the Indian zero-sugar beverage market by storm. With over 100,000 pre-bookings before its official release and a record-breaking 2.5 million-unit cases sold since its March debut, Thums Up XForce has quickly claimed the No. 1 position in India’s Diet and Lite beverage category.
Launched as a bold, zero-sugar option for young consumers, Thums Up XForce embodies the spirit of today’s fearless, rule-breaking generation. Retaining the iconic fizz and intense taste of the original, the drink is positioned as “All Thunder” with zero sugar and zero calories, aimed at those with a G.O.A.T. (Greatest of All Time) mindset who are constantly leveling up.
“Our strategy with Thums Up XForce is all about responding to changing consumer behaviors, especially the rising demand from young adults for bold, authentic experiences without settling or compromise. By innovating within our homegrown brand, we’re extending Thums Up’s legacy and stepping confidently into the fast-growing zero-sugar category. This consumer-first mindset helps us lead the market with a product that truly connects, while meeting the evolving lifestyle preferences of today’s generation,” said Sumeli Chatterjee, Category Head – Sparkling Flavours, Coca-Cola India and Southwest Asia.
With a sleek, edgy can design, Thums Up XForce is marketed as “Thunder in a Can” – a visual and sensory extension of the brand’s adventurous personality. Beyond the beverage itself, its bold aesthetics reinforce its status as a drink for those who live life out loud, push boundaries, and never compromise on taste or identity.
Even after 50 years, Thums Up continues to evolve and captivate audiences through strategic innovation and culturally resonant campaigns. With XForce, the brand has successfully extended its legacy into the zero-sugar era—without losing its edge.
