Maruti Suzuki Fronx Becomes Best-selling Car in India, Beats Wagon R, Creta and More in February

In a surprising turn of events, the Maruti Suzuki Fronx emerged as India's best-selling car in February 2025. The crossover sold 21,461 units, reflecting a remarkable 51.48% growth from the 14,168 units sold in the same month the previous year. What makes this achievement even more impressive is the Fronx's quick rise—it was ranked tenth on the sales chart just in January 2025. Alongside the Maruti Suzuki Fronx, the Wagon R and the Hyundai Creta also claimed strong spots in the best-selling car list last in February 2025, with 19,879 and 16,317 units sold, respectively.

Maruti Suzuki continued its dominance, securing seven spots among the top ten cars on the chart. With a total of 1.61 lakh units sold, the brand solidified its position as the leader in overall sales, strengthening its grip on the Indian car market.
