Kia India in October 2025

Kia India registered 35,398 vehicles in India in October 2025. Volume pushed ahead 14.6% against October 2024 and shot up 93.7% against September. That is the company's best month in our record, which begins in January 2022.

Of those, 34,922 were cars and UVs (98.7% of the total), +14.9% on October 2024. That figure is exact: it is counted with Vahan's own vehicle-class filter rather than worked out from the company total.

That put Kia India 13th among every manufacturer registering vehicles in India in October 2025, behind Toyota Kirloskar on 38,569 and ahead of Ather Energy on 30,246.

Measured against every vehicle registered in India that month — all segments, all fuels — that is 0.8% of the market, −0.20pp against October 2024.

Across 2025 to date — the 10 months of the year that have closed — the company has registered 2,24,329 vehicles, +6.1% on the same months of 2024.

What Kia India sells

98.2% of everything Kia India has registered in 2025 is in cars and UVs, and the company holds 6.3% of that segment nationally. Taxis and cabs is next at 1.7%.

This split is the calendar year to date and cannot be cut to a single month: our Vahan data holds a manufacturer's volume by month, and its volume by vehicle class, but not the two together. Multiplying them would be a guess, so the table stays on the axis where the number is exact.

"Share of segment" is this company against every other manufacturer in the same segment, over the same months.

Fuel mix

1.1% of Kia India's 2025 registrations are battery electric — 3,094 vehicles, against 0.2% in 2024.

Fuel, like segment, is published against the manufacturer for the whole year rather than by month, so these shares are 2025 to date. Hybrids are counted separately from battery electrics.

Fuel 2025 units Share vs 2024
Petrol 1,76,622 64.8% −0.62pp
Diesel 90,733 33.3% −0.36pp

Electric 3,094 1.1% +0.96pp

Every manufacturer, October 2025

Ranked on total registrations across every vehicle type, which is the finest manufacturer split our Vahan data holds with a month axis. Two-wheeler makers therefore sit above carmakers selling far more value — this is a count of vehicles, not of revenue.

Frequently asked questions

How many vehicles did Kia India sell in October 2025?
35,398 Kia India vehicles were registered in India in October 2025, +14.6% against October 2024 and +93.7% against September. Across 2025 to date the total is 2,24,329 vehicles, +6.1% on the same 10 months a year earlier.
Where does Kia India rank in October 2025?
13th among every manufacturer registering vehicles in India in October 2025, with 0.8% of all registrations that month. The ranking counts a company's total across every vehicle type it sells, which is the finest manufacturer split our Vahan data holds with a month axis.
What does Kia India mostly sell?
98.2% of Kia India's 2025 registrations are cars and UVs. Our Vahan data holds that split for the calendar year rather than by month, so it is a year-to-date figure, not the volume inside one segment for one month.
How many of Kia India's vehicles are electric?
3,094 of Kia India's 2,72,410 registrations in 2025 are battery electric — 1.1% of its book.
Are these retail sales or factory dispatches?
Retail. Every figure on this page is a vehicle registration recorded on the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways' Vahan 4 dashboard — a vehicle counts when a buyer registers it at an RTO. Manufacturers announce wholesale dispatches to dealers each month, which is a different and usually larger number.

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.
