Maruti Suzuki India sells close to 160k vehicles in April 2021

Indian car manufacturer Maruti Suzuki India said that it had sold 159,691 units in April 2021.

According to the company, it recorded domestic sales of 137,151 units, sales to other Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) 5,303 units, and exports of 17,237 units.

Maruti Suzuki India said that as April 2020 had a lockdown forced by the onset of Covid-19, which led to nearly zero sales, a comparison with the reported month has no meaning.

In April 2019, the Indian car manufacturer sold 143,245 units and in April 2018 had sold 172,986 units.
