The average passenger car revenue in 2023 is estimated to be ₹7.9 Lakhs, based on the product's fuel and variant mix.
Comparing this to pqr's 2022 analysis, the average revenue of cars have grown by 8.2% in 2023.

• SUVs/Crossovers have the highest revenue per car of ₹9.5 Lakh, followed by MUVs/MPVs at ₹8.4 Lakh.
• The average revenue of Hatchbacks and Sedans are ₹5.3 Lakh and ₹6.9 Lakh respectively, which are below the industry average.

Brand wise estimated Revenue (mass-market segment)

Please note that these are estimated revenue, so the actual revenue might be higher/lower than these figures.




Revenue wise, there are two categories of brands in 2023.

Category I: Revenue above ₹20,000 crore - Maruti Suzuki, Tata, Hyundai, Mahindra, Toyota and Kia (also the top 6 brands by sales).
Category II: Revenue below ₹10,000 crore - MG, Honda, Skoda, VW, Renault, Nissan, Jeep and Citroen.



• SUVs, Hatchbacks, MUV, Sedans generated 59%, 20%, 13% and 8% of the total revenue respectively.
• SUV segment is dominated by Mahindra due to their high revenue SUVs, followed by Hyundai.
• Except the SUV segment, all other segments have been dominated by Maruti.
• Tata comes in second in the Hatchack and Sedan segment. Toyota comes in 2nd in the MUV segment.

Product wise estimated Revenue (mass-market segment)

Top 20 Cars List:



• Tata Nexon is the highest revenue earning car in 2023.
• Hyundai Creta is the second highest revenue earning car in 2023.
• Mahindra Scorpio and Toyota Innova have gained 3rd and 4th ranks respectively, thanks to their emotional image and high demand.
• Despite selling in good numbers, Maruti products come next, as the average price is on the lower side.
• It's worth noting that Toyota makes similar money selling the Fortuner than Maruti does selling the Dzire, in large numbers!
• Kia Sonet is ranked #19 on the list, which was due for the now-launched facelift.

List of 21-40 Cars:



• Mahindra Thar and XUV300 are ranked #23 and #24 respectively, despite being a life-style vehicle, Mahindra mints more money from Thar than the luxurious XUV300.
• The cheapest car of India and the erstwhile best selling car, Alto is ranked #25 on the list!
• A minor rebadging work generates almost ₹3,100 crore for Toyota (Glanza).

List of 41-60 Cars:



• Honda City is ranked #42 on the list. The erstwhile king of the sedan segment has been beaten by Verna (#36 rank)
• Launched in Mid 2023, Elevate has secured #44 rank.
• Despite being a highly awaited product, Jimny is ranked #50 on the list. Maruti surely made a big blunder in pricing the Jimny.

List of 61-83 Cars:



• The Jeep Twins are ranked #62 (Compass) and #66 (Meridian) on the list. They genuinely need a generation change as sales are dwindling.
• All of Citroen's products are placed in this list. C3 was the highest revenue generating product for Citroen.
• The now discontinued WRV and C5 Aircross are the lowest revenue earning cars in 2023.

Hyundai has filed DRHP with SEBI for IPO and has provided the financials of all competitors. Gives an interesting perspective on the profitability as well. M&M and Tata's financials will have CV as well.

Very pleased to find TATA and Mahindra towards the top and hoping that both of them rank 1 & 2 in no particular order one day.

Technically Maruti Suzuki Baleno should be ranked 3rd. Since the 3100 Cr of Glanza sales add to the revenue of Maruti Suzuki. Not a bad feat at all for a Hatch Back.

Thank you this is interesting

What caught my eye: Why is Tata Motors's operating margin only 1%? Its strangely off vs. other companies.
