Mahindra close behind with strong growth

Mahindra sold 56,336 UVs in November 2025 versus 46,222 a year earlier, an increase of 10,114 units or 21.9 per cent. The company’s SUV portfolio, led by models such as the Scorpio-N, Thar and XUV700, continued to register robust retail demand.

Hyundai holds third place

Hyundai posted 35,564 domestic UV sales in November 2025, up from 33,193 in November 2024, a gain of 2,371 units or 7.1 per cent. The Creta and Venue remain the principal contributors to Hyundai’s UV volumes.

Kia and Toyota round off the top five

Kia recorded 25,489 UV sales in November 2025, up from 20,600 a year earlier, an increase of 4,889 units, or 23.7 per cent year-on-year. The Seltos and Sonet remained important volume drivers for the brand.

Toyota sold 24,812 UVs in November 2025, compared with 21,239 in November 2024, an increase of 3,573 units, or 16.8 per cent, helped by continued traction for the Innova HyCross and Fortuner.

Brief look at the rest of the pack

The next five manufacturers posted modest to mixed performances in November 2025. Honda Cars India sold 1,781 UVs (slightly up year-on-year as the Elevate contributes gradually). Nissan’s UV domestic sales were 1,908, down from 2,342 a year earlier, as its UV line-up remains limited. Renault India posted 3,215 UV sales, Skoda Auto India recorded 4,277, and Stellantis (Jeep) reported 1,224, each showing different pockets of demand across small-SUV and crossover niches.

Exports

UV exports also showed momentum in November 2025. Maruti Suzuki led UV exports for the month with 26,022 units. Other notable UV exporters in November included Toyota with 3,667 units exported, Nissan with 3,445, Kia that exported 3,004 and Hyundai with 2,031 units.

Overall, the country's UV exports in November 2025 stood at 42,993 units, contributing to a cumulative April–November 2025–26 export total of 2,88,242 UVs, a sign of India’s growing role as a production and export hub for compact and midsize SUVs.
