Hey folks, if you’re into cars, especially those zippy SUVs that make family road trips a breeze, Hyundai’s got some exciting news from last month. Wrapping up September 2025, the company posted total sales of 70,347 vehicles – that’s a solid 10% jump from the same time last year. Breaking it down, they moved 51,547 units at home in India and shipped out 18,800 for export.
Domestic numbers edged up just a hair – about 1% over September 2024 – but things really picked up steam compared to August, with a 17% spike. Credit goes to those fresh GST tweaks and the buzz around festive buying season. Exports? They really shone, climbing 44% year-over-year and hitting the best monthly figure in over two and a half years.
The real stars? Hyundai’s SUVs, which made up a whopping 72% of domestic sales – the biggest slice yet for the brand. Leading the pack was the Creta, clocking an all-time high of 18,861 units sold. It’s no wonder it’s still India’s go-to SUV. Right behind it, the Venue turned in its strongest month in 20, with 11,484 units rolling off the lots.
Zooming out to the full quarter (July through September), domestic sales dipped a bit to 139,521 from 149,639 last year, but exports jumped 21% to 51,400. Overall, it was a near-flat quarter at 190,921 total. Still, from April to September, exports are up 17% to 99,540, cementing India’s spot as Hyundai’s key global export base under that “Make in India” push.
Tarun Garg, Hyundai India’s COO, summed it up nicely: “Big thanks to PM Modi for the GST changes that are really opening doors for folks. Festive vibes and customer love helped us hit peak SUV shares ever. Creta and Venue killed it, and exports are at a three-year high. It’s all about that homegrown growth for everyone.”
Looks like Hyundai’s riding high into the holidays – keep an eye on those showroom deals.
