Hyundai says product portfolio drives domestic growth

Commenting on the August sales performance, Tarun Garg, MD & CEO, Hyundai Motor India, said the company continues to sustain strong growth momentum in FY2027.

He highlighted the 23.6% year-on-year growth in August domestic sales, noting that the record figure reflects the popularity of Hyundai’s product portfolio.

Hyundai said its versatile range of vehicles continued to attract strong customer demand in the domestic market during the month.

Exports impacted by logistical constraints

While domestic sales recorded strong growth, Hyundai’s export performance was affected during August. The company exported 11,400 units during the month.

According to HMIL, exports were impacted by logistical constraints arising from the ongoing conflict in West Asia and the broader geopolitical environment during August.

Garg said Hyundai remains optimistic that export demand will continue to remain strong in the coming months as the geopolitical situation improves.

With domestic sales reaching a record high for an August month and registering double-digit growth during the April-August period, Hyundai enters the upcoming months with continued momentum in the Indian market.
