Cars Sales Analysis - A-Segment Hatchback

A-Segment Hatchback May 2022 Car Sales - YoY Change

Maruti Suzuki own the A-segment hatchback space with all of their 3 cars in the top 3 spots
The Alto still maintains its lead in the A-segment hatchback space with 5-figure sales in May 2022
The Celerio saw the biggest YoY change in May 2022 with a gain of 3924%
This skewed YoY gain is because the Celerio was about to get a generation change last year and had less demand as customers were waiting for the update
Moreover, May 2021 saw very low sales across the board because of Covid lockdowns
In MoM, we won’t see such skewed data as the Celerio has now settled into its rhythm
The Renault Kwid sat on the fourth spot in April 2022 YoY change followed by the Hyundai Santro, and these positions have switched for May 2022
