Highlights

  • Maruti Suzuki has sold over 1.45 lakh units of the Vitara Brezza
  • The company has sold over 3.42 lakh units of the Ertiga
  • Maruti Suzuki sold 8,239 units of the Vitara Brezza in June 2017

The fact that Maruti Suzuki is the biggest utility vehicle maker for the first quarter of FY18 is hardly a surprise. The company reported sales of 57,125 utility vehicle units which included the likes of Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza, Ertiga and the S-Cross. In comparison, the Q1 sales of FY17 were 39,348 units. The percentage increase over the year was a massive 45 per cent.

May 22608 13596
June 13879 9708

The company says that the Vitara Brezza along with Ertiga have been driving force behind the robust sales for Q1 FY18. The company's market share in the B-segment of automobiles increased by 7.7 per cent in the first quarter of FY18. For the time-period of April-June 2017, Maruti Suzuki's share in the B-segment was a total of 29.3 per cent as against 21.5 per cent in FY17.

The Vitara Brezza compact SUV has proved to be a runaway success for the company in the last one year. Ever since its launch in March 2016, the company has sold over 1.45 lakh units. If we speak about the Ertiga, the company has sold over 3.42 lakh units since it was launched in early 2012. The Q1 FY18 sales of the Ertiga stand at over 18,700 units. It was also the first ever MUV to have a mild-hybrid diesel technology.
Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza Sales in 2017 Numbers
January 2017 8,932 units
February 2017 10,046 units
March 2017 10,057 units
April 2017 10,563 units
May 2017 12,375 units
June 2017 8,239 units
The Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza had its best month in May 2017 when the company sold over 12,375 units. But the very next month, in June 2017, the sales figures took a tumble on account of GST. The difference was a massive 4,136 units. We will have to wait and see whether the numbers pick up in July 2017 or not.
