Maruti Suzuki remains the best-seller in India
The latest sales milestone achievement of Maruti has been achieved in a tremendously long time period of 28 years and 2 months. The brand, which began as a collaborative effort of the Indian government and Suzuki, has been the top-selling car brand in India ever since.
With cumulative domestic sales plunging 3 crore mark, Maruti is confident that this figure will double even faster. In fact, the last 1 crore out of the 3 crore sales have been achieved within a span of just 6 years and 4 months, which itself is a big achievement.
Speaking of the top-sellers, Alto has been the best-selling car of Maruti in India. The entry-level hatchback has sold more than 47 lakh units ever since it was launched. Following it is the Wagon R, which has sold 34 lakh units, followed by the Swift at 32 lakh unit sales.
Other popular cars include the Fronx and Brezza, which are among the top 10-selling cars in India. One of the major factors behind Maruti’s success is its widespread sales and service network.
Moreover, Maruti’s policy of supporting third-party repairs by selling OEM parts has proven to be a game-changer. Meanwhile, the CNG technology and high fuel efficiency remain Maruti’s forte.
