The passenger vehicle segment has finally started witnessing signs of recovery in India. A majority of auto manufacturers posted growth in their monthly sales volumes for August 2020, and according to Jato Dynamics India, last month, passenger car sales grew by 20 per cent compared to August 2019. However, we have to consider the fact that last year, during this period, the auto industry was already facing a severe slowdown, and despite witnessing growth the current volumes are nowhere near what we saw in August 2018. Having said that, given the current conditions, caused by the coronavirus pandemic and the resultant lockdown, the recent growth is a positive sign nonetheless. For now, here are the top 10 best-selling cars in August 2020.
