Commenting on the strong performance, Mr. Sabari Manohar – Vice President, Sales-Service-Used Car Business, Toyota Kirloskar Motor said, “Our entire range of product offerings has experienced strong sales momentum, bringing festive cheer to all of us at Toyota. This growth is fuelled by increased footfalls and strong demand for our SUVs and MPVs, along with a significant boost from the introduction of Festival Limited Editions of the Urban Cruiser Hyryder, Urban Cruiser Taisor, Glanza, and Rumion, which were specially launched for the season.
Furthermore, good order-taking, paired with efficient deliveries, has propelled our growth as customer response to our full product lineup has been very positive, enhancing both the sales volumes as well as the market acceptance.
The festive season also gave us with an opportunity to reinforce our commitment to customer centricity by introducing special schemes starting in September, including extended warranties and attractive exchange offers across key models. We are extremely grateful to our customers for choosing Toyota as their trusted mobility partner. This achievement is a testament to the unwavering support and dedication of our dealer partners across the country.”
