The sluggish growth could further be slowed down due to RBI's move of increasing the repo rate by 40 bps, which came in unexpectedly earlier this week.

Mercedes-Benz has revealed that it has sold over 11,000 vehicles under its new Retail Of The Future business model since it was introduced last year. The new sales model was rolled out in 2021 wherein Mercedes-Benz would directly sell its vehicles to customers.

Customers would then in turn be provided with a single pan India price and be invoiced by the company directly.

This would mean that the carmaker has averaged sales of around 1,600 vehicles a month via its new sales model. The automaker also revealed that it sold over 4,000 cars in the first quarter of 2022 and has an order bank of over 5,000 cars, its largest ever so far.

Skoda Auto India revealed that the company is witnessing greater than anticipated demand for the Slavia 1.5-litre TSI version. The company said it currently had 14,000 bookings for the new compact sedan with 30 per cent of it for the more powerful 1.5 TSI variant. The company said that it anticipated about 15 per cent of the demand to come from the more expensive version with the current numbers doubling its expectations. This also suggests that the top trims are garnering quite a bit of interest with the 1.5 TSI sold in the fully-loaded Style trim. The high demand also seems to have affected Slavia's waiting period. The 1.0 TSI models have an average waiting period of up to 2 months while the 1.5 TSI sees this number extend up to 4 months.
