SUVs pushing up diesel demand<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Since sports utility vehicles (SUVs) have become the preferred choice of Indian customers, the demand for diesel engines has also sustained.<\/p>\n

Auto analysts are of the view that the rising sales percentage of sports utility vehicles \u2014from 13% in FY20 to 16.4% in FY21 to about 22% in FY22 \u2014 has sustained the demand for diesel engine.In FY21, the sales share stood at 75.8% (petrol), 16.4% (diesel) and 6.1% (CNG).<\/p>\n

This shows that while the sales share of petrol cars has dropped by 3.6 percentage points in FY22, that of diesel cars has increased by 2 percentage points and that of CNG increased by 2.5 percentage points.<\/p>\n

Buyers of midsize and large SUVs generally prefer diesel engines<\/strong> due to their comparatively higher torque \u2014or pulling power \u2014 and hence offering a more fun-to-drive character,
\nThe New SUV launches by Hyundai (second-generation Creta and Alcazar), Kia (Sonet) and Mahindra & Mahindra (second-generation Thar and XUV700) have led to sustained diesel demand.<\/p>\n

In the compact SUV segment, the sales share of diesel-engine variants is 35-40%, but this rises to 55-60% in the midsize SUV segment, and even upwards in the large SUV segment.<\/p>\n

Essentially, the more expensive the car, the higher is the diesel variants\u2019 sales percentage within that model.<\/strong><\/p>\n

There are many markets where diesel outsells petrol in cars that cost above Rs 10 lakh. Tarun Garg, director, sales & marketing, Hyundai Motor India, told BigGaddi.com<\/strong> that while 50-55% of all-India Creta sales (a midsize SUV priced over Rs 10 lakh) are of diesel-engine variants,<\/p>\n

Hardeep S Brar, vice-president & head, marketing and sales, Kia India,<\/strong> said while 35% sales share of the Sonet (a compact SUV) is diesel, this rises to 45% in the Seltos (a midsize SUV).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
