Domestic sales last month stood at 3,40,133 units, as against 3,09,332 units in July 2020, a growth of 10 per cent.

"Gradually ramping up production while monitoring the market situation, Honda's sales momentum continues to accelerate with July month reaching closer to 4 lakh unit mark," HMSI Director – Sales & Marketing Yadvinder Singh Guleria said in a statement.

He further said, "with the majority of our dealer network resuming operations across the country, a sharp surge in enquiries for scooters followed by motorcycles is being witnessed. Backed by a good monsoon, increasing preference for personal mobility and upcoming festival season, we expect faster recovery for the market."
