Swift remains most popular in August 2019.
Ford Figo biggest loser in terms of drop in demand compared to last month.
Ford Freestyle enjoys month-on-month growth.
Hyundai바카라™s Grand i10 is the second-most sought after hatchback after launch of Nios.
Overall mid-size hatchback sales continue to decline as month-on-month figures go down by over 18 percent.
The mid-size hatchback segment has quite a few offerings in the form of the Ford Figo, Hyundai Grand i10, Maruti Suzuki Swift and Ford Freestyle. Hyundai launched the new-gen Grand i10 as the Nios in India this past month (listed as just Grand i10 in sales report), which should have helped its numbers grow.
Let바카라™s have a look at the table to see which of these was the most sought after car in the month of August:
Takeaways
Ford Figo: Even though its market share has improved over last year, the Ford Figo saw a sharp decline in sales compared to July. It registered an almost 40 percent MoM (month-on-month) decline.
Hyundai Grand i10: Getting closer to the segment-leading Swift, the Hyundai hatchback registered a MoM growth of over 85 percent. These numbers include the newly launched Grand i10 Nios which no doubt accounts for much of the increase in the model바카라™s popularity in August. Year-on-year, its market share has increased by almost 4 percent.
Maruti Suzuki Swift: This popular hatchback from Maruti still holds the top spot as far as demand and sales figures are concerned. This, even after suffering a marginal decline as compared to July바카라™s numbers. Yet its market share has gone down by almost 4 percent as compared to 2018, likely taken up by the new Grand i10 Nios.
Ford Freestyle: Ford바카라™s second offering in the same segment also saw an increase in sales and popularity as compared to July. It registered a MoM growth of almost 20 percent despite the market share going down significantly by over 5 percent.
While Hyundai바카라™s growth did boost the overall sales and popularity of mid-size hatchbacks, the segment on a whole still saw its MoM numbers drop by over 18 percent.
