Hyundai India Sets a New Milestone in 2024: Creta Leads with 1.86 Lakh+ Units Sold
In 2024, Hyundai Motor India achieved a remarkable milestone by recording its highest-ever annual domestic sales for the third consecutive year. This achievement was driven primarily by the popularity of its sport utility vehicle (SUV) models, which contributed significantly to the company’s overall sales volume.
Hyundai’s SUV lineup, including models like the Exter, Venue, Creta, Alcazar, and Tucson, played a pivotal role in the company’s success. In 2024, SUVs accounted for an impressive 67.6% of Hyundai’s domestic sales. The Creta, in particular, emerged as the star performer, registering its highest-ever annual domestic sales at 1,86,919 units.

While Hyundai’s domestic sales flourished, its export performance saw a slight dip. The company exported 1,58,686 units in 2024, compared to 1,63,675 units in 2023. Despite this decline, Hyundai’s overall sales (domestic + exports) stood at an impressive 7,64,119 units in 2024.

To meet the growing demand, Hyundai is expanding its production capacity. The company’s Sriperumbudur plant in Chennai has an annual production capacity of 8,24,000 units. Additionally, Hyundai acquired the Talegaon plant in Pune from General Motors, which is being renovated to produce over 2,00,000 units annually. Once fully operational in Q3 FY26, Hyundai’s total annual production capacity will exceed 10,00,000 units.
Looking ahead, Hyundai India is set to launch the Creta EV on January 17 at the Bharat Mobility Global Expo 2025. This new addition to Hyundai’s portfolio is expected to further strengthen the company’s position in the Indian automotive market.
