Commenting on sales data of 2022 calendar year, Mr Vinod Aggarwal, President, SIAM said, “Passenger Vehicles have reported highest ever sales of 3.8 million units, which is about 4 Lakh units higher than the last peak in 2018. Commercial Vehicles reported sales of 9.3 Lakh units which, is just about 72 thousand units lower than the earlier peak in 2018. Three-Wheeler sales are still lower than 2010 sales and Two-Wheeler lower than 2014. Compared to the last calendar year, growth in Commercial Vehicles have been noteworthy, L5 category of Three- Wheelers have recovered well although from a low base of the previous year, while the Two- Wheelers have grown at a much slower pace in this calendar year, compared to the other categories of vehicles.”
Commenting on Q3 sales data, Mr Rajesh Menon, Director General, SIAM said, “In Q3 of FY 23, Passenger Vehicles grew by 23%, Commercial Vehicles by 17%, Three-Wheelers by 68% and Two-Wheelers by 6% compared to last year. Festive season has helped in returning good sales numbers for all the segments. However, weakness in rural demand continues, as high food inflation and increased financing cost is impacting the rural market.”
