Hyundai Creta Tops India’s Car Sales in March 2025, Surpasses Maruti and Tata
Hyundai Creta led car sales in March 2025 with 18,059 units, overtaking popular models like the Swift and Punch. SUVs continue to dominate India's auto market.
In a notable shift within India's automotive market, Hyundai's Creta emerged as the nation's best-selling car in March 2025, with 18,059 units dispatched. This mid-size SUV surpassed traditional favourites such as the Maruti Suzuki Swift, Tata Punch, and Maruti Suzuki Wagon R to claim the top spot. Notably, no single model exceeded the 20,000-unit dispatch mark during this period.

The dominance of SUVs in the Indian market was further underscored, with six out of the top ten best-selling models belonging to this segment. This trend highlights the growing consumer preference for SUVs over other vehicle types. Additionally, the Maruti Suzuki Ertiga secured its position as the highest-selling Multi-Utility Vehicle (MUV) for the month and ranked fifth overall. The increasing acceptance of MUVs among buyers reflects a shift in consumer preferences. Conversely, hatchbacks appear to be losing momentum, exemplified by the Maruti Suzuki Alto, which has consistently fallen outside the top ten rankings.
These developments indicate a significant transformation in the Indian automotive landscape, with SUVs and MUVs gaining traction and reshaping market dynamics.
