Commenting on the sales performance Tarun Garg, Director Sales, Marketing & Service, Hyundai Motor India said, "In the changing business environment, the green shoots of recovery are clearly visible with sales improving on a month-on-month as well as year on year basis. HMIL continued its good sales momentum helped by high customer acceptance for the all-new Creta, Venue, Tucson & Kona Electric in the SUV segment, Verna, Aura & Elantra in Sedan segment and Santro, Nios and i20 in the hatchback segment. We are confident that the coming festive season will drive the market on a steady recovery path with positive customer sentiments."

While the company's domestic sales performance is certainly positive, one must not forget the fact that last year, around this period, the auto industry was facing one of its biggest slowdowns, and sales were already low. So we must not be hasty and start celebrating the September performance because, in terms of real growth, the industry still has a long way to go.
