  • Hyundai had the highest de growth in exports in terms of volume drop.

  • Nissan and Ford had one of the highest degrowth in terms of % fall.

OEM wise Market share.

  • Understandably with the highest volume comes the highest market share, however, one needs to note that Maruti also had the highest gain in market share a staggering 12.39%

  • The other gains came from Hyundai, Honda, VW and TATA on the market share front.

Hyundai has a bigger advantage in terms of UVs as Venue and Creta shipments have been quite significant. While Maruti’s rise in export volumes is commendable; the OEM needs a much stronger UV portfolio to gain hold in both domestic and export volumes.
