India's auto sector accelerates into FY27 with strong April momentum. Domestic passenger vehicle dispatches surged 26 percent year-on-year to 4.4 lakh units, driven by sustained consumer demand for SUVs and two-wheelers. Utility vehicles led growth at 2.4 lakh units, up 20 percent, while passenger cars climbed 33 percent to 1.2 lakh units. The two-wheeler segment posted particularly impressive gains with overall dispatches rising 28 percent to 18.7 lakh units, including motorcycle sales up 30.6 percent. Three-wheelers also maintained momentum with 32.8 percent growth. Industry officials note this robust performance reflects resilient demand conditions despite rising commodity costs tied to West Asian geopolitical tensions, signaling healthy economic activity across vehicle categories.
