The just-ended fiscal year has seen a few significant changes on the list of cars exported from India, thanks to new launches and a few discontinuations. Nissan's Micra emerged as the most-exported car model last fiscal year, replacing the long-reigning Hyundai i10 that slipped to the ninth position. The exports of i10 fell a whopping 78% from 109,074 units in FY14 to 23,961 in FY15.
But the new avatar of the Hyundai hatchback, Grand i10, was one spot behind the Micra with exports at 63,585.
Exports of passenger vehicles from India increased 4.4% in fiscal 2015 to 622,470 units. Hyundai remained the top exporter. This is despite two of its cars, Accent and Eon, which were at the seventh and tenth positions in fiscal 2014, slipping out of the top 10 list.
Maruti Suzuki India returned to being the second highest exporter with a shipment of 121,701 units, overtaking Nissan which clocked 120,331 units in exports. MSIL was represented in the list by Alto and A-Star which held seventh and eighth position respectively.
On a list that is dominated by hatchbacks and sedans, Ford EcoSport was the lone utility vehicle among the top 10, at the fourth spot in fiscal 2015. Exports of EcoSport increased more than three times to 55,178 and was only the second vehicle to make a fresh entry into the top 10 list.
Nissan, Ford and Volkswagen exported more cars than they sold in India in the previous fiscal, according to latest SIAM data. Hyundai was the largest exporter, followed by Maruti Suzuki and Nissan. Overall, India exported 19.3% of the 3.22 million passenger vehicles it produced in 2014-15.
