In the Utility Vehicles segment, Mahindra sold 15,380 vehicles in February 2021, compared to 10,675 vehicles in February 2020, registering a growth of 44%. The Passenger Vehicles segment (which includes UVs, Cars and Vans) sold 15,391 vehicles in February 2021, a growth of 41% over same period last year.
According to Veejay Nakra, Chief Executive Officer, Automotive Division, M&M Ltd., “At Mahindra we have witnessed a growth of 44% in UVs for the month of February, 2021. Demand continues to remain buoyant for our range of SUVs and Pick-ups and we have a robust order pipeline. However, supply of semiconductors, as we all know, is a global issue and it is likely to continue for another 3 to 4 months. Going forward, we will continue to monitor the situation and closely work with our suppliers to minimise this supply risk."
