Nissan Motor India has released the sales numbers for the month of April 2024. Last month, the Japanese carmaker, which currently only sells the Magnite subcompact SUV in India, achieved domestic wholesales of 2,404 units. Compared to 2,617 vehicles sold in April 2023, the company saw a year-on-year decline of over 8 per cent. 

Saurabh Vatsa, Managing Director, Nissan Motor India, said, “We are driven by our strong commitment to putting our customers first and the fiscal year has begun well for us. Our recent network expansion through new dealerships in New Delhi and Durgapur underlines our dedication to providing accessible and exceptional automotive experiences across regions.

As for exports, Nissan saw a marginal growth in April 2024. Last month, the carmaker exported 639 vehicles from India, which also includes the Sunny sedan. Compared to the 362 vehicles exported during the same month in 2023, the company witnessed a 1 per cent growth yoy. However, Nissan India’s consolidated sales for April 2024 went down by 6 per cent, at 3043 units. In comparison, the carmaker sold 3,249 units during the same month in 2023.

The fact that Nissan can maintain this kind of monthly sales with just one car is certainly noteworthy. Nissan has sold 1 lakh units of the Magnite since the SUV’s launch in December 2020 and exported 30,000 units.
