Published: Wednesday, December 18, 2024, 11:01 [IST]

India's vast population makes it a crucial market for car manufacturers worldwide. Many international car companies are eager to establish a presence here. Some have already succeeded, leading to a steady increase in the number of cars available each year. Indian automakers are also regularly introducing new models. Let's explore the top five cars launched in 2024.

Mahindra Thar Roxx

The Mahindra Thar ROXX was introduced on August 15, coinciding with India's Independence Day. The original Thar, launched in 2020, was popular but had only three doors. The new ROXX version addresses this by offering five doors, enhancing its appeal among buyers.

Maruti Suzuki Dzire

Maruti Suzuki's Dzire remains a favourite among Indian consumers. Furthermore, the new Dzire comes with a 5-Star safety rating, making it one of the safest cars you can buy in India. As a result, we expect the sales of the new Dzire to further increase in the coming months.

Citroen Basalt

The Citroen Basalt marks the French company's attempt to strengthen its presence in India. Competing with Tata Motors' Curvv, the Basalt was launched last August. Its ex-showroom price begins at Rs 7.99 lakh (ex-showroom), making it an attractive option for budget-conscious buyers.

Tata Curvv

Tata Motors introduced the Curvv following the success of its Nexon and Punch models. The Curvv's ex-showroom prices range from Rs 9 lakh to Rs 19 lakh (ex-showroom). Additionally, Tata launched an electric version of the Curvv this year, catering to the growing demand for eco-friendly vehicles.

MG Windsor EV

The MG Windsor EV is a 5-seater electric MPV. While the MG Windsor may not have a huge fan following like the Mahindra Thar, the automaker silently redefined the pricing strategy for electric vehicles by offering Battery-as-a-Service, which significantly reduces the upfront cost of owning an EV. In fact, the MG Windsor EV was launched just at Rs 9.99 lakh (ex-showroom).
