The month of October witnessed several auto companies record good sales numbers. While Maruti Suzuki dominated the top 10 selling cars, another homegrown automaker’s newly launched micro-SUV also made its way to that list. Tata Motors’ Punch which was just launched in the third week of October managed to land the 10th spot in the list.
According to a CarDekho report, Maruti Suzuki models occupy the top four slots, including the four best-sellers of the month. Two other models from the Maruti Suzuki’s stable take up the seventh and ninth places in the list of top-selling cars.
The Maruti Suzuki Alto tops the best-selling car list with 17,389 units sold in October 2021, an increase of over 5,000 units sold in September 2021. Baleno takes up the second position, as the subcompact hatchback raked in double sales figures with 15,573 units in October, as compared to 8,077 in September 2021. Maruti Suzuki’s Ertiga’s sales rose by around 40 per cent YoY with 12,923 units in October 2021. The MPV occupies the third spot on the list.
