In this April 2022 cars sales analysis article, we’ll look at the YoY and MoM change in sales figures of all sedans in India. We’ll also include our observations based on the sales data and possible reasons behind a massive increase or drop in sales, where applicable.

Sedans Segment April 2022 Car Sales - YoY Change

Among the sedans, the Slavia’s sales figures suggest that the customers are willing to buy a sedan if they offer a fresh design, road presence and a comparable feature list
The Slavia was the bestselling sedan in its segment despite carrying the highest price tag (excluding City hybrid)
With the launch of the Slavia, the Ciaz and Verna suffered the biggest loss of 60 - 70% YoY.
The 5th gen City is a fairly fresh product, which went on sale just 2 years ago. The City’s D-segment-like length and road presence helped it limit its losses as its sales declined only 26.5% after the Slavia’s launch.
The City hybrid should help the sedan regain the top spot in May as the Slavia’s new-model euphoria fizzles out.
The Virtus is also in line to go on sale and it could again disrupt City’s pole positioning in June.
Among the smaller sedans, the Dzire continues as the torch bearer with 10,000+ dispatches in April but it too suffered a YoY decline of 24% in April 2022.
Among the smaller sedans, the Tigor, Amaze and Xcent-Aura siblings delivered YoY gains last month.
