Dzire outsells all the other sedans combined
SEDANS ARE DYING, except for Dzire. The January-October 2025 sales data shows that the compact sedan by Maruti Suzuki has outsold all sedans put together. During the period, Dzire sold 174,334 units, while nine other sedans put together could manage 142,456 units.
This wasn’t the case in calendar year 2024, when Dzire—though still the leader, by far-sold 167,988 units, almost 10,000 units less than 177,857 units sold by the other nine sedans.
This year, Dzire is followed by Hyundai Aura (51,295 units), Honda Amaze (26,730 units), Volkswagen Virtus (18,241 units), Skoda Slavia (11,643 units), Tata Motors’ Tigor and Tigor EV (11,596 units), Hyundai Verna (9,942 units), Honda City (6,561 units), the now-discontinued Maruti Suzuki Ciaz (4,521 units), and Toyota Camry (1,927 units).
