Tarun Garg, Chief Operating Officer, Hyundai India, “HMIL has managed to sustain sales momentum in 2024, despite strong headwinds faced by the industry at large. Achieving the highest ever domestic sales three years in a row, reflects customers’ preference for brand Hyundai as their trusted smart mobility solutions provider. Introduction of the innovative Hy-CNG Duo technology in 2024 resonated well with buyers, translating to the highest ever CNG contribution of 13.1 per cent to HMIL’s domestic sales in CY24, against 10.4 per cent in CY23.”
