Maruti Suzuki Extends Its Lead
Maruti Suzuki sold 1,47,187 units in June, a rise of nearly twenty four percent over the same month last year, and more than double the volume managed by Tata in second place.
The utility vehicle range, including the Brezza, Fronx, Grand Vitara and Jimny among others, contributed just over 61,700 units, while the compact car lineup made up of the Alto, Baleno, Dzire, Swift and WagonR added over 75,000 units to the tally.
Tata Motors Fends Off Mahindra
Tata Motors registered 62,076 units for the month, an increase of over sixty seven percent year on year, keeping it ahead of Mahindra by a margin of just 1,683 vehicles. The gap between the two has stayed tight for several months running.
June was an eventful month for the carmaker, with the launch of the Sierra EV alongside a price hike of up to 1.5 percent across its petrol, diesel and electric range that came into effect from July 1.
Mahindra Keeps The Pressure On
Mahindra was not far behind, posting 60,393 units and a year on year jump of nearly twenty eight percent. Demand remained strong across its SUV lineup, with the Scorpio N, Thar, XUV 3XO and XUV 7XO all contributing to the brand's steady momentum.
Hyundai Hit By Supplier Fire
Hyundai sold 39,635 units in June, down almost ten percent from a year earlier. The company attributed the shortfall to a fire at one of its suppliers' facilities, which is understood to have cost the brand roughly 13,900 units of lost production.
The Creta, Venue and Exter continued to anchor its sales, supported by steady interest in the Grand i10 Nios and i20 hatchbacks.
Toyota Kia MG Renault And Nissan
Toyota held on to fifth spot with 28,441 units, a rise of over seven and a half percent, led by the Innova Hycross, Urban Cruiser Hyryder and Glanza.
Kia grew close to nineteen percent to reach 24,552 units on the back of the Seltos and Sonet, and also rolled out a battery rental scheme for its Carens Clavis EV during the month.
MG Motor climbed nearly thirty percent to 7,568 units, while Renault posted the sharpest jump of the smaller players at almost fifty five percent, aided by the start of Duster exports to South Africa.
Nissan extended its growth run to four straight months, up close to forty three percent to 3,006 units, driven by the Magnite and the newly launched Gravite.
