Driven by surging demand for SUVs, Hyundai Motor India Limited (HMIL) reported total sales of 70,347 units in September 2025. SUVs accounted for 72.4 per cent of domestic sales — the highest in the company’s history, with the Creta leading at 18,861 units and the Venue achieving its best monthly performance in 20 months with 11,484 units.

Domestic sales, however, rose marginally to 51,547 from 51,101 units in September 2024.

Exports and strategic role

HMIL exports rose by nearly 44 per cent year-on-year to 18,800 units, marking the highest monthly tally in 33 months. Cumulative exports from April to September 2025 grew 17 per cent to 99,540 units, reflecting HMIL’s role as Hyundai Motor Company’s global manufacturing hub. “Post the announcement of GST 2.0 reforms, HMIL is witnessing a synergetic alignment of both domestic and export markets now growing in tandem. Our domestic sales in September stood at 51,547 units,” said Tarun Garg, Wholetime Director and Chief Operating Officer, HMIL.

“We have also witnessed highest-ever domestic SUV sales penetration in the history of the Company at 72.4 per cent, with Creta scoring the highest-ever monthly sales at 18,861 units.
