The first day say of the month is always reserved for the sales report of all the carmakers in the country. The month of August saw a couple launches from the stables of Renault with the updated Kwid, Toyota bringing in the Etios Liva Limited Edition, Maruti introducing its AGS or the AMT function to the top variants of the new Swift along with a special edition of the Dzire and also the launch of the much anticipated refreshed Ciaz. While the month of August saw an upward trend for some manufactures, Maruti Suzuki saw decline in sales as it saw an adversely effect of the severe floods in Kerala and heavy rains in other parts of the country. However, it did not deter the spirit of the carmakers in the country as it saw huge contributions for the Kerala's Chief Minister Distress Relief Fund, extending support to the Indian state which has been affected by unprecedented rain. So, let's take a quick look at how the carmakers performed in terms of sales in the month of August 2018.
