MG Motor India had sold 1,867 units in the same month last year, when sales were impacted by the nationwide lockdown imposed to curb spread the coronavirus pandemic, although easing of restrictions had started then.
In May this year sales were at 1,016 units at the peak of the second wave of COVID-19.
With phased unlocking, the carmaker registered a significant increase in enquiries and bookings, the company said in a statement.
In June the company sold 3,002 units of Hector SUV, 306 units of Gloster SUV and 250 units of ZS EV.
MG Motor India Director – Sales Rakesh Sidana, said, "We are seeing early signs of positive consumer sentiment in June and potential purchases due to pent-up demand, which was on hold due to the pandemic."
He further said, "Even though some markets are still under lockdown, the ramping up of the vaccination drive has given us hope and we expect the demand to increase during the festival season. However, we have to remain cautious of the potential threat posed by the third wave."
