Car Sales Report - JULY 2020

Indian Car Sales Figures & Analysis - July,2020

The coronavirus pandemic had led to a slowdown in not only the auto sector but also in the economy of the nations. The auto sector saw a huge decline in sales during the lockdown period and gradually it is getting out of that slump as the lockdowns are eased. 

In the current situation, people are giving preference to personal transport due to the vastly spread virus. As a result, the sales graph has increased with cumulative units dispatching from the factory. Now with all the manufacturers switching to BS6 engines, the cost of production for the engines have been increased due to the additional tech that goes into the motor. Also with strict emission norms and protocols, the new vehicles in the market are greener than before. 

Though the production of vehicles has slowed down due to limited numbers of staff, automakers are trying their level best to expand their business by selling their vehicles on the digital platforms. New car launches and arrival of latest cars in India have made possible for the top brands to improve their car sales volume.

The sales figure has risen significantly by over 50,000 for this month compared to the JUNE 2020. Automakers are providing attractive discounts and offer on their various cars for attracting more customers.

Sales Report of Midsize Sedans - July 2020

As the fifth generation City was just launched, naturally it had a lot of customers waiting. Generally, a new car with such a brand name is expected to perform well in the market but will the City be able to hold its crown is the question.

Toyota Yaris has also seen a significant surge of 321.57%. The current car on sale is actually a great competitor to its rivals and it can be clearly seen in the sales chart.

Another major news is the slow sales of the Ciaz, it looks like Maruti Suzuki’s ‘ Petrol only’ engines are impacting the sales. 

Hyundai also launched the prime rival to the ‘City’. Hyundai Verna also enjoyed ample sales last month thus it maintains the second position in the list.

Volkswagen Vento managed to do sell just over the 200 number. Whereas its sibling, the Rapid from Skoda clocked at 738 units.
