EcoSport exports decline

Next is Ford EcoSport, which has lost a significant chunk of its export numbers in December 2020. A total of 6,986 units were exported, as compared to 12,607 units in December 2019. YoY de-growth is -44.59%. EcoSport’s exports market share was 12.25% in December 2020.

EcoSport used to be the most exported car from India, but things have changed in December 2020. Reduced production may be one of the reasons, as the company is facing shortage of components such as semi-conductors.

Hyundai Creta takes the fourth spot with 5,647 units exported in December 2020. As compared to 3,379 units exported in December 2019, YoY growth is an impressive 67.12%. Creta’s exports market share was 9.90% in December 2020. In the domestic market, Creta is currently the top selling SUV. The credit for that goes to next-gen Creta that was launched in March 2020. All-new Creta comes with a range of updates and new features, which have made it hugely popular in the domestic market.
