Creta Knocked Down! Dzire Becomes Top Selling Car in May!

A major reversal has been seen in the Indian automobile market in May 2025. Maruti Dzire has overtaken Hyundai Creta, breaking all sales records at an affordable price of ₹ 9 lakh. Dzire won the crown of the number-1 car with sales of 18,084 units, while Creta slipped to fourth place. Maruti’s Ertiga and Brezza also performed well and made it to the top 3. This change shows that now customers are again turning to sedans and multi-utility vehicles, especially when they are in budget and mileage is strong.

The car sales figures in May 2025 have surprised the entire auto sector. Hyundai Creta, which has been crowned as the best selling SUV till now, has got tough competition from someone for the first time. And this competition is not from any SUV, but from an affordable and reliable sedan Maruti Dzire.

Sedan’s glory in the era of SUVs – Dzire at number-1

In this market full of SUVs, Maruti Dzire surprised everyone and won the title of best selling car in May 2025. Dzire, which was at number two in April, recorded sales of 18,084 units in May and reached the first position directly.

Hyundai Creta slipped to fourth place

While Dzire secured the first position, Hyundai Creta suffered a major setback. The number one contender Creta slipped to fourth place in May. Although the company has registered better sales than May 2024, still only 14,860 units were sold in May 2025.

Maruti Ertiga and Brezza dominated

Between Dzire and Creta, two more Maruti vehicles Ertiga and Brezza won. In May 2025, 16,410 units of Ertiga and 15,566 units of Brezza were sold. Brezza’s great performance has made it the best-selling SUV of the month.

Mahindra Scorpio and Tata Punch also return

Mahindra Scorpio was at the fifth position, with 14,401 units sold. At the same time, Tata Punch has once again made it to the top 10. 13,133 units of Punch were sold in May and it stood at the ninth position. Tata Nexon was also included in the top 10.

Maruti dominates the top 10

Maruti Suzuki has maintained its dominance in the list of top 10 best selling cars. Maruti cars occupied 6 out of a total of 10 positions. Two cars of Tata Motors – Punch and Nexon – were in this list, while only one car each from Mahindra and Hyundai made it to the list.

Did cab fleets increase the demand for Dzire?

The biggest reason behind this huge success of Maruti Dzire is believed to be the massive purchase of cab fleets. Ever since Maruti launched the new Dzire for commercial use, its demand has been increasing continuously.

Is Hyundai Creta still people’s first choice?

Even though Hyundai Creta has dropped out of the top 3 this time, it is still considered one of the most trusted SUVs of the customers. The success of Dzire and Ertiga is definitely changing the trend, but the craze of Creta is not over.

Conclusion:

The sales of Maruti Dzire in May 2025 have shaken the entire auto sector. This car priced at just ₹ 9 lakh has now become the best selling car in the country and the sedan has won the battle between SUVs and sedans. Now it remains to be seen which car wins in June.
