Nexon Leads as SUVs Dominate the Market
The Tata Nexon held its lead with 22,434 units, growing 46 percent year‑on‑year and continuing as India’s most popular SUV. The Punch followed with 18,753 units and steady 21 percent growth, reinforcing Tata’s strong SUV lineup. Hyundai’s Creta also remained a consistent performer in the midsize SUV space with over 17,000 units sold.
SUVs accounted for more than half of the top‑25 models, signalling India’s clear shift toward higher‑riding, feature‑rich vehicles.
Maruti Strengthens Its Multi‑Segment Presence
Maruti Suzuki once again showcased the widest portfolio strength, securing multiple entries across hatchbacks, sedans, vans and MUVs. The Dzire posted an impressive 79 percent surge with 21,082 units, ranking second overall, while the Swift delivered 19,733 units with a strong 34 percent rise.
Mass‑market staples like the Ertiga, Wagon R and Eeco also recorded positive growth. However, competitive pressure affected the Brezza and Baleno, which saw year‑on‑year declines.
Mahindra’s SUV‑Only Strategy Delivers Strong Gains
Mahindra remained fully SUV‑focused, and all five of its entries in the top 25 delivered notable traction. The Scorpio led the charge at 15,616 units with 23 percent growth, while the XUV 3XO, Bolero and Thar posted strong gains across the board.
The XUV700 saw a drop to 6,176 units amid anticipation for the upcoming XUV 7XO, yet it stayed within the top 25 on sheer brand strength.
Key Market Trends Shaping November 2025
A closer look at the rankings highlights several broader patterns in India’s passenger vehicle market:
- SUVs clearly dominate consumer preference with 14 entries.
- Only three models registered a YoY decline, indicating broad‑based demand recovery.
- Compact and midsize SUVs across brands posted consistent double‑digit gains.
- Maruti led in portfolio depth, Tata led in high‑volume SUVs, and Mahindra continued to excel in pure‑SUV positioning.
Verdict
November 2025 reaffirmed India’s shift toward SUVs, with the Nexon taking the top spot for the third month in a row. Maruti’s multi‑segment strength and Mahindra’s SUV‑heavy strategy continued to shape market dynamics, while Tata secured momentum through its strong SUV lineup.
As the industry moves toward 2026, the growing demand for feature‑rich, fuel‑efficient and safe SUVs is expected to further intensify competition across segments.
