Volkswagen India has reported sales of 4,039 units in June 2015, an increase of 31% (June 2014: 3,079).
This increase in sales is attributed to the recent launches of the new Vento and new Jetta sedans. The Polo, the only hatchback in its segment that comes with a 4-star NCAP safety rating for adult occupants, also continues to contribute to the sales increase. The company says the Polo GT TSI, with its powerful turbocharged petrol engine and 7-speed DSG transmission, is leading Volkswagen’s strong sales performance in the premium hatchback segment.
For the first six months of the year, the German carmaker has notched 18.95% growth, selling a total of 23,943 cars compared to 20,128 units sold in the January-June 2014 period.
Commenting on the sales growth, Michael Mayer, director, Volkswagen Passenger Cars, Volkswagen Group Sales India, “We have witnessed our fifth consecutive increase in monthly sales and attribute this achievement to our recently launched new Vento, growing trust in the brand amongst consumers and an excellent dealer network. This has been an exciting year for Volkswagen Cars, and an increase of 19% in our overall sales for the January-June 2015 period.”
