Passenger vehicle dispatches jump 34.3% YoY to 4,57,810 units in July: SIAM

Domestic passenger vehicle dispatches from companies to dealers rose 34.3 per cent year-on-year to 4,57,810 units in July, industry body SIAM said on Thursday.

Passenger vehicle dispatches stood at 3,40,772 units in July 2025, Society of Indian Automobile Manufacturers (SIAM) said in a statement.

Total two-wheeler sales rose 22.6 per cent to 19,23,483 units last month, as against 15,69,120 units in July last year, it added.


Three-wheeler dispatches to dealers were up 33.4 per cent last month at 92,560 units as against 69,403 units in the year-ago period, it added.

Commenting on the performance, SIAM Director General Rajesh Menon said, "India's auto industry delivered its strongest-ever July sales, with robust double-digit growth across passenger vehicles, three-wheelers and two-wheelers."

This positive momentum, sustained over several months, has continued as the industry enters the festive season with expectations of strong consumer sentiment, he noted.

Meanwhile, Maruti Suzuki expects passenger vehicle sales in the local market to grow to 6.1-6.3 million units per annum over the next five years on back of a revival in demand for small cars and strong traction for sports utility vehicles, Chairman R C Bhargava said.

This would be an increase of about a third over 4.64 million cars sold in the country in FY26.
