Hyundai Motor India delivered a stellar performance in September 2025, driven by robust demand during the festive season and favorable GST 2.0 tax reductions. The Korean automaker sold a total of 70,347 vehicles, marking a significant increase from the 64,201 units sold in September 2024. Leading the charge was the Hyundai Creta, which recorded its highest-ever monthly sales, reinforcing its dominance in the midsize SUV segment.
Strong Overall Sales Performance
In September 2025, Hyundaiโs domestic sales reached 51,547 units, complemented by 18,800 units exported, reflecting strong demand both in India and global markets. The SUV segment was the standout, contributing 37,313 units and accounting for an unprecedented 72.4% of Hyundaiโs total sales for the month. This represents the highest SUV penetration in the companyโs Indian operations to date.
Hyundai Creta: The Star Performer
The Hyundai Creta solidified its position as a market favorite, achieving a record-breaking 18,861 units sold in September 2025. A mainstay in the midsize SUV segment for over a decade, the Creta continues to attract buyers with its blend of style, performance, and versatility. The internal combustion engine (ICE) Creta is priced between Rs. 10.73 lakh and Rs. 20.20 lakh (ex-showroom) and offers three engine options: a 1.5L naturally aspirated petrol, a 1.5L diesel, and a 1.5L turbo petrol, paired with multiple transmission choices. Earlier in 2025, Hyundai introduced the Creta Electric, available with two battery pack options, further broadening its appeal in the eco-conscious market.
Hyundai Venue: A Strong Contender
The Hyundai Venue also shone, posting its best monthly performance in 20 months with 11,484 units sold. As a compact SUV, the Venue appeals to urban buyers seeking affordability and modern features. Priced competitively, it offers a 1.2L naturally aspirated petrol, a 1.0L turbo petrol, and a 1.5L diesel engine. The next-generation Venue, set to launch in November 2025, promises a complete redesign while retaining the current powertrain options, ensuring continued market relevance.
