India Light Vehicle Sales Update April 2018 India Light Vehicle Sales Update New Agreements & New Models to Galvanize the Market India’s Light Vehicle (LV) wholesales rose by 9% year-on-year (YoY) to 356k units in March. Passenger Vehicle (PV) sales increased by 6% YoY to 285k units. The Light Commercial Vehicle (LCV) segment again outperformed our expectations, with solid growth of 23% YoY to 70k units. On a seasonally adjusted annualized rate (SAAR) basis, sales in March climbed slightly to 3.86 mn units in March, compared to 3.83 mn units in February and 3.90 mn units in January. The year-to-date average SAAR was thus at 3.87 mn units, versus full-year 2017 sales of 3.68 mn units. The Indian industry certainly ended the first quarter on a positive note, bolstered by new model launches and generally positive economic conditions. Total LV volume in the January-March period improved by 10% YoY to 1.01 mn units. This tally was divided between 820k PVs (+8% YoY) and 191k LCVs (+24% YoY). It is also worth mentioning that the growth rate was partially driven by a low base effect, since sales in Q1 2017 were weak because of the impact of the government’s demonetization drive in November 2016. New Model Additions We added eleven new entries to this month to incorporate the recent developments at VW Group and new agreements between Ford and Mahindra, and Suzuki and Toyota. Ford and Mahindra have agreed to jointly develop SUVs in India. We therefore added two new Ford SUVs to our forecast. The first is the Ford C-SUV, which is assumed to be ready by mid-2021. Notably, the model will share the same platform as the second-generation Mahindra XUV500 and it is possible that this new platform will be jointly developed by Mahindra, SsangYong and Ford. The second vehicle is the Ford B-SUV, which is likely to arrive by mid-2022. Our assumption is that the B-SUV will sit on SsangYong's X100 platform. At the same time, Ford plans to utilize Mahindra’s EV technology to introduce the Figo Aspire EV in India. We also added the Mahindra B-SUV as part of this joint product development. The new vehicle is likely to roll out by 2022, and be built on SsangYong's X100 platform. At the same time, we added the Mahindra EV Sedan, which is expected to be ready by 2021. The model may be based on Ford’s B2E platform. Another important agreement was formed between Suzuki and Toyota to share certain models in India. Under the deal, Maruti Suzuki India will supply the New Baleno and Vitara Brezza to Toyota, while Toyota will produce the Corolla for Maruti-Suzuki. These rebadged models have now been added to the outlook. VW Group has charged Škoda with the task of developing the India-specific MQB A0 IN platform. The modified vehicle architecture will underpin three vehicles each for Volkswagen and Škoda. The first models are likely to be SUVs, which we have added as the Škoda B-SUV and Volkswagen B-SUV, slated to come out by 2021 and 2022, respectively. We also added the next-generation Škoda Fabia, which may be the new MQB A0 IN-based hatchback for India. Other existing models in the forecast likely to be part of the same deal are the next generations of the Škoda Rapid and Volkswagen Polo, as well as the upcoming Volkswagen Virtus. That being said, it also possible that Škoda and Volkswagen may choose to replace their existing sedans and hatchbacks with all- new models and nameplates built on the MQB A0 IN platform. At the heart of the above developments is the aim to reduce costs and bring competitively priced products to the Indian market. w ww.lm c-auto.c om Oxford ● Detroit ● Frankfurt ● Bangkok ● Shanghai ● São Paulo ● Tokyo 1 India Light Vehicle Sales Update Forecast Change India’s PV sales forecast has been adjusted downward by an average of 27k units a year through the long term.

Myriad demand and supply side issues continued to trouble the space, continuing the system-wide weakness that set in around the 2018 festive period. Broad- based decline in OEM volumes (Exhibit 1) throughout the year encapsulated the pain at that level as well as the knock-on impact on supporting Report ecosystems of ancillaries, on the one hand, and dealerships, on the other. Higher cost incidence and general reluctance in consumer spending affected the PV and 2-W segments most, while slowing economic activity and system pecial overcapacity took a toll on CV segment.

  • Fuel Consumption from Light Commercial Vehicles in India, Fiscal Year 2018–19
    WORKING PAPER 2021-02 © 2021 INTERNATIONAL COUNCIL ON CLEAN TRANSPORTATION JANUARY 2021 Fuel consumption from light commercial vehicles in India, fiscal year 2018–19 Author: Ashok Deo Keywords: CO2 standards, fleet average fuel consumption, mini truck, pickup truck, greenhouse gas emissions Introduction This paper examines the fuel consumption of new light commercial vehicles (LCVs) sold in India in fiscal year (FY) 2018–19. These vehicles are the N1 segment in India, and passenger vehicles are the M1 category.1 LCVs in India are not yet subject to any carbon dioxide (CO2) emission standards, even though such standards apply to passenger cars and have proven effective in driving down test-cycle emission levels of new vehicles. This work establishes a baseline of fuel consumption for the N1 segment in India, to help regulators develop an effective CO2/fuel consumption standard. Additionally, we compare the N1 fleets for FY 2014–15, FY 2017–18, and FY 2018–19, understand the characteristics of the mini truck and pickup segments within the N1 category, and compare the performance of major LCV manufacturers in India in terms of fleet average fuel consumption. Finally, we assess the performance of India’s LCV fleet against the LCV fleet in the European Union, considering the differences in the curb weight and size of the vehicles, and examine the performance of LCV manufacturers if a star labeling standard or passenger car fuel consumption standards were to be applied. Background LCVs are used in India as “last-mile” connectivity to move goods to their final destination. The light-duty vehicle market was approximately 87% passenger cars and 13% LCVs in FY 2018 –19.2 This study focuses on India’s LCVs, which are bifurcated into two segments by the Society of Indian Automobile Manufacturers (SIAM), as shown in www.theicct.org Table 1.

  • India Light Vehicle Sales Update
    August 2018 India Light Vehicle Sales Update Weak July Growth Due to High Base in 2017 India’s Light Vehicle (LV) wholesales inched up by a mere 1% year-on-year (YoY) to 339k units in July, over a high base in the same period a year ago. At the same time, the dispatch of vehicles to dealers was partially impacted by an eight-day truckers’ strike. The overall volume was dragged down in particular by Passenger Vehicles (PVs), which declined by 3% YoY to 274k units. It is important to point out that dealers had depleted their inventory in June 2017 to avoid paying higher taxes under the new Goods and Services Tax (GST) regime that became effective last July. This was then followed by restocking, which bolstered wholesales in July 2017. In contrast, demand for Light Commercial Vehicles (LCVs) with GVW of up to 6 tons surged by 23% YoY to 65k units in July of this year. The LCV segment is bouncing back from the negative impact of demonetization (from November 2016 to Q1 2017) and the GST implementation, while also benefiting from an improved rural economy. On a seasonally adjusted annualized rate (SAAR) basis, sales improved marginally to 4.20 mn units in July, compared to 4.19 mn units in June. While the July SAAR was lower than the record-high selling rates of 4.37 mn units in May and 4.27 mn in April, it was, nevertheless, still a very impressive performance for India, particularly since the SAAR has exceeded 4 mn units for four consecutive months.
