Nissan India Sales May 2026: 3,044 Units, +89.5% YoY
Full Vahan registration report for Nissan India in May 2026 — total volume, year-on-year and month-on-month change, where it ranks against every other manufacturer, and the segment and fuel mix behind the number.
Nissan India in May 2026
Nissan India registered 3,044 vehicles in India in May 2026. Volume surged 89.5% against May 2025 and slipped 5.8% against April. Its best month on record remains April 2026 at 3,232.
That put Nissan India 35th among every manufacturer registering vehicles in India in May 2026, behind BGauss on 3,300 and ahead of Local Trailer Manufacturer on 2,979.
Measured against every vehicle registered in India that month — all segments, all fuels — that is 0.1% of the market, +0.05pp against May 2025.
Across 2026 to date — the 5 months of the year that have closed — the company has registered 13,246 vehicles, +36.9% on the same months of 2025.
Nissan India monthly registrations
Every calendar year on record, month by month. The running month is left off the line until it closes.
What Nissan India sells
99.56% of everything Nissan India has registered in 2026 is in cars and UVs, and the company holds 0.7% of that segment nationally. Taxis and cabs is next at 0.4%.
This split is the calendar year to date and cannot be cut to a single month: Vahan publishes a manufacturer's volume by month, and its volume by vehicle class, but never the two together. Multiplying them would be a guess, so the table stays on the axis where the number is exact.
Nissan India by segment, 2026
Calendar year to date — exact, but with no month axis.
| Segment | 2026 units | Share of company | Share of segment |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cars & UVs | 22,099 | 99.56% | 0.7% |
| Taxis & Cabs | 78 | 0.4% | 0.0% |
| Other | 19 | 0.1% | 0.0% |
"Share of segment" is this company against every other manufacturer in the same segment, over the same months.
Fuel mix
Nissan India has registered no battery-electric vehicles in 2026 in this data.
Fuel, like segment, is published against the manufacturer for the whole year rather than by month, so these shares are 2026 to date. Hybrids are counted separately from battery electrics.
| Fuel | 2026 units | Share | vs 2025 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Petrol | 20,990 | 94.6% | +0.23pp |
| CNG / LPG | 1,206 | 5.4% | −0.20pp |
Every manufacturer, May 2026
Ranked on total registrations across every vehicle type, which is the finest manufacturer split Vahan publishes with a month axis. Two-wheeler makers therefore sit above carmakers selling far more value — this is a count of vehicles, not of revenue.

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.
