Hero MotoCorp, the world’s largest two-wheeler manufacturer, has reported sales of 639,802 units in October 2015, its highest ever sales in any month. This is a growth of 11.25% over the corresponding month last year when the company had sold 575,056 units. The company’s previous highest sales in same month were in October 2013 when it sold 625,420 units.
With over 108,000 units of scooters sold in October, Hero MotoCorp crossed the landmark 1-lakh unit sales in scooters in a month. In the domestic market, the company’s scooter sales grew by 74.6% in October this year over the corresponding month in 2014. With this, the market share of Hero MotoCorp in the domestic scooter market has risen from 13% in September to almost 20% at the end of October.
The highlight of October has clearly been the overwhelming success of the company’s newly-expanded scooters range -- Maestro, Pleasure, and the two newly-launched scooters -- Maestro Edge & Duet. The success of the scooters, coupled with its over 52% share in motorcycles, Hero MotoCorp has further strengthened its overall leadership in the two-wheeler market.
