$HYUNDAI Strong export performance.

$HYUNDAI Hyundai Motor India – Latest News & Updates Hyundai Motor India started FY27 on a strong note, reporting healthy growth in domestic sales during April and May 2026, supported by continued demand for the Creta, Venue and Exter models. The company expects 8–10% domestic sales growth in FY27, driven by improving consumer demand, new product launches and a recovery in the passenger vehicle market. Hyundai plans to invest approximately ₹6,700 crore ($794 million) to expand the capacity of its Talegaon (Maharashtra) plant, with the objective of doubling production capacity by FY2027. The company is preparing to launch two new models, including a new electric SUV, as part of its strategy to strengthen its EV portfolio in India. Hyundai has implemented a price increase of up to ₹12,800 across its model range from June 2026 due to rising raw material and operating costs. A temporary production disruption occurred at the Chennai Plant 1 following a fire at a key supplier's facility. However, the company indicated that production has largely normalized and any lost output is expected to be recovered. Hyundai introduced several product updates during 2026, including new editions of the Creta, Venue, Grand i10 Nios and Ioniq 5, helping maintain a fresh product lineup.
