Despite a negligible decline, the strong utility vehicle continued to contribute significantly with 15.40% share.

Overall, Mahindra’s May 2026 performance was driven by the continued strength of the Scorpio, Thar and XUV 7XO, while its electric SUV portfolio maintained steady growth. With the Sierra and additional EV launches expected to further intensify competition in the coming months, Mahindra remains one of the strongest players in India’s SUV market.
