Passenger Vehicle (PV) Sales 2025: Maruti Suzuki Leads, 46,29,371 Units, Up 9.4% YoY

India's passenger vehicle market registered 46,29,371 passenger vehicles in CY 2025. Volumes improved 9.4% against the 42,29,957 logged over the same 12 months of CY 2024.

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 CY 2025 that was 42,70,187 cars and UVs and 3,59,184 taxis and cabs; taxis were 7.8% of the total. Against CY 2024, cars and UVs were +9.5% and taxis +9.1%.

October was the strongest month of the period at 5,89,769 passenger vehicles and June the quietest at 3,17,587, an average of 3,85,781 a month. 11 of those 12 months grew on the same month a year earlier.

CY 2025 ran from January 2025 to December 2025 and is closed. Every month in the table below is final, and every comparison on this page is against the matching month of CY 2024.

Passenger vehicles accounted for 15.8% of everything registered in India over the period, up from 15.5% in CY 2024. The whole market ran to 2,92,91,615 vehicles over the same window, up 7.5% year on year.

Maruti Suzuki led the period with 18,45,956 registrations, up 8.3% on CY 2024. Mahindra follows on 5,80,753, 12,65,203 behind — a gap of 3.18x.

The fastest riser in the top 8 was Skoda, up 35.3% to 1,14,705, while Hyundai was broadly flat (−0.7%) at 5,80,083.

Volumes here are registrations inside the segment only, counted with Vahan's own vehicle-class filter, so each is the manufacturer's passenger vehicle volume over CY 2025. Companies that file electric models under a maker of their own appear as separate rows.

Set against the rest of the market, passenger vehicles outgrew the national picture over CY 2025: +9.4% against +7.5% for every vehicle registered in India.

இந்த அட்டவணை Vahan அறிக்கை அளிக்கும் ஒவ்வொரு பிரிவையும் ஒரே 12 மாதக் காலத்தில் உள்ளடக்குகிறது; அதனால் ஒப்பீடு நேருக்கு நேர் — இரு பக்கமும் ஒரே மாதங்கள், ஒரே மூலம்.

Vahan splits a segment by fuel only across a whole calendar year, so this table covers full-year 2025 rather than CY 2025 alone — it is exact for that window.

Petrol accounts for 48.4% of passenger vehicle registrations over full-year 2025, with battery-electric at 4.2%.

Across the 2 completed windows in our Vahan record, passenger vehicle registrations went from 42,29,957 in CY 2024 to 46,29,371 in CY 2025, up 9.4% over the stretch.

CY 2026 is still running — 10 of its 12 months are counted — so it is a part window and is never set against a full one. Its year-on-year figure compares only the months it actually holds.

State-level volumes for a single segment come from a calendar-year table, so the figures below cover full-year 2025. Maharashtra leads with 5,63,001 registrations, 12.2% of the segment.
