As a Hyundai owner, I'm not surprised. Their after-sales service and the new models like the Creta have been excellent. Good to see them hitting record numbers. The export growth is particularly impressive.

While the sales numbers are great, I hope this growth is sustainable and not just due to year-end discounts clearing inventory. Also, with more cars on the road, our city infrastructure needs to keep pace. Just a thought.

Tata's EV growth of 72.7%! 👏 This is the future. The Nexon EV is a common sight in my society now. Hope the government continues the FAME subsidies to make electric cars even more accessible to the middle class.

Hyundai's Venue and Aura doing so well shows there's a huge demand for compact SUVs and sedans in the budget segment. Perfect for Indian families. Wishing both companies continued success. Make in India is working!
