Kia reported domestic sales of 27,610 units in February 2026 with a 10 per cent year-on-year increase over the 25,026 units sold in February last year
Last month turned out to be a reasonably positive one for Kia India but the numbers reveal a few interesting changes within the lineup. The brand reported domestic sales of 27,610 units in February 2026. That’s an improvement over the 25,026 units sold in February last year with a 10 per cent year-on-year increase. Compared to January 2026 though, the overall numbers remained almost unchanged.
Once again, the Kia Seltos continues to do most of the heavy lifting for the brand. The midsize SUV posted 10,308 units in February – a big jump from the 6,446 units it managed during the same period last year. A 60 per cent increase is significant and shows the model still has strong pull in the segment following the arrival of the new generation recently.
Month-to-month however, the numbers dipped slightly from January’s 10,639 units. Right behind it sits the Kia Sonet, another consistent seller for the company. February saw 9,750 units of the compact SUV dispatched – up from 7,598 units sold during the same period last year. That’s a healthy 28 per cent growth year-on-year.
Interestingly though, the Sonet recorded a noticeable drop compared to January 2026 when it sold nearly 11,000 units. The decline was around 11 per cent which could simply reflect normal month-to-month fluctuations in the segment. The Kia Carens continues to be a dependable contributor in Kia’s portfolio.

The MPV recorded 6,815 units in February – compared to 5,318 units during the corresponding month last year. That works out to a 28 per cent annual increase. Unlike the SUVs, Carens actually moved in the opposite direction month-to-month – climbing from 5,633 units in January. In contrary, the Kia Syros only recorded 662 units in February 2026 which is sharply down from the 5,425 units recorded a year ago.
The total led to an 88 per cent decline – easily the biggest drop in the lineup. On the slightly brighter side, the numbers did improve compared to January when just 275 units were sold. At the other end of the spectrum is the Kia Carnival which continues to operate as a niche premium product. Only 75 units were sold in February – down from 239 units a year earlier.

Compared to January’s 58 units, the Carnival did see a slight increase in fortunes. The Seltos and Sonet remain the key volume drivers with the Carens steadily supporting them. Models like the Syros and Carnival contribute far smaller numbers and tend to fluctuate.
