Hybrid sales month by month, Q4 FY 2024-25
India's hybrid vehicle market registered 98,043 hybrids in Q4 FY 2024-25. Volumes grew 6.9% against the 91,720 logged over the same 3 months of Q4 FY 2023-24.

Who is selling the hybrids
Vahan publishes manufacturer volumes split by fuel only across a whole calendar year, so the hybrid leaderboard below covers full-year 2025 rather than Q4 FY 2024-25 alone. It is exact for that window.
Maruti Suzuki holds 59.3% of hybrid registrations over full-year 2025, ahead of Toyota Kirloskar.

More from the reports desk
Source. Every figure is a vehicle registration, taken daily from the Ministry of Road Transport & Highways' Vahan 4 dashboard (vahan.parivahan.gov.in) — the same source FADA and the industry use for retail data. Registrations are not the wholesale dispatch numbers manufacturers announce each month. "EV" means battery electric (Vahan fuels PURE EV and ELECTRIC(BOV)); hybrids are counted separately. Information only, not investment advice.
