Hyundai shipped a total of 44,271 units from its Sriperumbudur plant in Tamil Nadu with 62.1 per cent YoY de-growth In the first seven months of this financial year, the exports of passenger vehicles were rather underwhelming. Despite the steady improvement in domestic volume sales over the last three to four months, as car brands capitalized on the festive season, the numbers of cars shipped from India were down by nearly 53 per cent on YoY basis. Cumulatively, 1,95,296 cars were shipped abroad in the period between April and October 2020. While Hyundai, the largest passenger car exporter from India, continued to hold position at the top, it did post a massive Year-on-Year de-growth of 62.1 per cent as 44,271 units were exported against 1,16,900 units in April-Oct 2019 period. The country's largest car manufacturer, Maruti Suzuki, finished second with a total of 41,011 units as against 61,634 units during the corresponding period in 2019 with 33.5 per cent YoY volume drop. Ford India is a significant player in exporting cars from its production plants in India and it ended up third in the table. Car brands (YoY) Exports In April-Oct 2020 Exports In April-Oct 2019 1.
