While the Tata Tiago is at the 11th position, Maruti Suzuki and Hyundai seems to be showing stiff competition further down the band. Brands such as Mahindra, Toyota, Ford and Renault are also active in the sub-25 best-selling cars segment.
Verdict
Unsurprisingly, Maruti Suzuki still remains the most-successful car brand in the country. Following close and gaining more market each day, is Hyundai. Indians seem to have the most trust in Hyundai cars, after Maruti.
Again, getting the highest sales numbers cannot make a car, particularly the best.
