Hyundai sells 62,799 cars in October, up 17% on year; Alcazar sales fall 40%

Hyundai Motor India has released its sales figures for October 2026. The company sold a total of 62,799 cars during the month, against 53,792 units in October 2025, a year-on-year increase of 17%. SUV models accounted for a large share of the sales.

The Creta remained the company's top seller with 17,955 units, though sales were 2% lower than the 18,381 units sold a year earlier. The Venue sold 13,017 units, against 11,738 last year, a rise of 11%.

The Exter came third with 8,509 units. It had sold 6,294 units in the same month last year, an increase of 35%. The Aura sold 7,349 units, up 26%.

The i20 recorded the highest annual growth among all the company's models, at 37%. It sold 5,528 units in October, against 4,023 units last year. The Grand i10 sold 5,458 units, up 1%.

The Hyundai Bayon, which the company launched on October 26, recorded sales of 3,449 units. The Verna sold 775 units, 6% fewer than a year earlier.

The Alcazar saw a sharp fall. Only 758 units were sold in October, against 1,259 units last year, a drop of 40%. One unit of the Ioniq 5 was sold, against six in October last year. No October 2026 sales were recorded for the Tucson.

Overall, the Creta and the Venue gave Hyundai's sales strong support, and growth in the i20, Exter and Aura was also good for the company. The weaker sales of models such as the Alcazar and the Ioniq 5 pose a separate challenge for the company.
