The YoY sales, however, registered a 39.3 per cent de-growth.

The popular C1-segment sedan could sell 1,887 copies in October 2019, which is only a slight increment of 3.7 per cent over 1,819 units sold in September 2019. The YoY sales performance remained dismal with a de-growth of 47.8 per cent.

Honda Civic Oct 2019 Sales
While the tenth generation Civic was off to a pretty respectable start in the Indian car market, its sales performance got a bit dull as the time progressed. Last month, the stylish D1-segment sedan could sell 436 units, which esulted into a MoM sales increment of 29.8 per cent when compared to only 336 units sold in September 2019.
Honda CR-V Oct 2019 Sales
The latest generation of the company’s most premium SUV is a pretty expensive proposition, with its top-spec model costing more than Rs 38 lakh (on-road, New Delhi). No surprise, then, that the sales figures have never been extra-ordinary.
Last month, the premium SUV could managed to find only 152 buyers, which led to a MoM sales loss of 7.9 per cent. On YoY basis, the SUV marked a de-growth of 33.3 per cent.
Honda Jazz Oct 2019 Sales
The Honda Jazz has been a long-standing Hyundai Elite i20 and Maruti Baleno rival that hasn’t been too successful with finding a lot of favour from premium hatchback buyers of the country.
Last month, the B2-segment small car registered a sale of 750 units, which led to a MoM sales growth of 15.6 per cent when compared to 649 units sold in September 2019. On YoY basis, the Jazz registered a de-growth of 29 per cent.
Honda WR-V Oct 2019 Sales
The WR-V is a Jazz-based crossover that offers almost all the traits of its donor hatchback along with providing a more comprehensive features list and a more rugged styling package to justify a higher price tag. While the WR-V found many takers soon after its launch, the demand has plummeted in recent times.
Last month, the cross-hatch could find 1,367 buyers, which marked a 1.9 per cent increase on MoM basis from 1,341 units sold in September 2019. On YoY basis, the WR-V marked a de-growth of whopping 58 per cent.
