“In the last three months, 15,000 Xylo were booked. In the last month alone, we have sold 2,954 units,” Vivek Nayer, senior vice-president (marketing-automotive sector) of M&M, told reporters.

M&M sold 3,200 Scorpio vehicles last month, Nayer said.
Asked about the outlook for the current financial year, he said: “It’s difficult to speak about the outlook. We are looking at month-to-month performance. Current month is going fine. Let’s wait and watch how the situation unfolds.”
