Of the total sales for July, Honda Accord, the premium compact car claimed a share of 39 units and the sturdy SUV, Honda CR-V totalled sales of 53 units.

The sales of Honda were highly discouraged mainly due to the absence of diesel powered vehicles in the Indian auto market, further contributed by the mounting fuel prices and interest rates. In comparison to July, the sales in the June declined considerably. The company is expecting the sales to revive during the much awaited festive season with the grand launch of the diesel run Honda Brio.
