The country’s second-largest car-maker Hyundai Motor India today reported a 1.48 per cent decline in total sales to 49,667 units in July 2011.
The company sold 50,411 units in the corresponding year ago period, Hyundai Motor India Ltd (HMIL) said in a statement.
In the domestic market, the company’s sales decreased 11 per cent to 25,642 units from 28,811 units in same month last year, it added.
Exports of the company increased 11.23 per cent during the month under review to 24,025 units from 21,600 units in the year-ago period, the statement said.
“The July 2011 sales for both the industry and Hyundai Motor India Ltd had been negative. Though customer enquiries have increased, due to the increase in fuel price and interest rates, conversion rate has slowed down,” the HMIL Director (Marketing and Sales), Mr Arvind Saxena, said.
In the A2 segment (Santro, i10 and i20), the company sold 41,533 units, while in the A3 segment (Accent and Verna), sales stood at 7,980 units.
