SUV has become a valuable market for almost all car manufacturers in India. The reason behind this is the growing number of SUVs purchased every year. As this segment continues to draw a large chunk of revenue for almost every manufacturer, their production and modification, are never overlooked. A considerable time has passed since April ended, and again, we are back with the list of best-selling SUVs for the month. In April 2023, Tata Nexon retrieved its top spot. The Nexon SUV was the top-selling model the previous month with an 11.37% YoY sales growth. It was followed by the Creta, the Brezza, and the Punch on the list. Let's know in detail how these and more SUVs performed in April this year.
Tata Nexon
Tata Nexon reclaimed the top spot on the list of best-selling SUVs last month. The SUV knocked down the Maruti Suzuki Brezza to No.2 after losing its position to the model in March 2023. From 13,471 units sold in April 2022 to 15,002 units in April 2023, the Nexon sales increased by 11.37% YoY.
