Passenger vehicles (PV, also called 4W) are privately registered cars and UVs plus taxis and cabs, which Vahan books as a class of their own. In H1 FY 2025-26 that was 18,59,698 cars and UVs and 1,70,506 taxis and cabs; taxis were 8.4% of the total. Against H1 FY 2024-25, cars and UVs were +4.3% and taxis +3.2%.

April was the strongest month of the period at 3,75,107 passenger vehicles and June the quietest at 3,17,587, an average of 3,38,367 a month. Every one of those 6 months grew on the same month a year earlier.
