  • Hyundai stood second with two model in the list.
  • The Kia Seltos also managed to make its way in the list.

There have been so many new car launches in the last decade that it's really difficult to keep a track of it. But there are some models that have been constant in the bestselling list and leading the chart is the Maruti Suzuki Swift that's been the highest selling car in India yet again. In fact, on an average the Swift has been one of the bestselling models in India since its launch in 2005. The advent of B-Segment hatchbacks in the last decade and them getting better acceptance against entry-level A-Segment models is also a sign that the Indian car market has matured.

The Hyundai Creta took the fifth spot in the bestselling list.

According to the data published by JATO Dynamics India, Maruti Suzuki sold 15,798 units of the Swift every month on an average between June 2020 and November 2020, and that despite the pandemic situation. Out of the 10 bestselling models in the last six months, seven models are from Maruti Suzuki's stable. This pretty much explains why Maruti is the largest selling carmaker in India, accounting for about 55 per cent of the overall market share in the passenger vehicle segment. Hyundai too remains the second bestselling car company in India with two models and then its sister brand - Kia Motors too has joined the fray with the Seltos.
