Maruti Suzuki continued to reign supreme at the top of the 2025 sales charts while Mahindra finished second for the first time beating Tata and Hyundai
The CY 2025 had been nothing short of interesting as car manufacturers looked to leverage the ever-growing interest in SUVs before the arrival of the GST 2.0 based price drops that led to record sales numbers in the final parts of the year. The PV market saw established players consolidating their positions while a few brands recorded notable gains.
Maruti Suzuki retained its undisputed leadership at the top even as competition intensified in the battle for second place. Mahindra emerged as the standout performer – overtaking both Tata Motors and Hyundai to secure the second spot in overall sales and market share for the first time in history as its legacy nameplates and new offerings have been well received.
Maruti Suzuki ended CY 2025 with total sales of 17,86,226 units – registering a 39.91 per cent market share. While the numbers resulted in a marginal decline compared to its 2024 share of 40.24 per cent, the brand’s dominance remained unmatched. There was intense demand for some of its popular hatchbacks like Baleno, Swift and WagonR.

However, it was the Dzire which received a brand new generation a year ago finished the year as the most sold car. The compact Brezza, midsize Grand Vitara and the recently introduced Victoris played their part in upping the brand’s standards along with CNG offerings. Mahindra recorded one of the most impressive performances of the year. With 5,92,771 units sold, the homegrown SUV maker captured 13.25 per cent market share – up from 12.08 percent last year.
The surge was due by consistent demand for models like the Bolero, Scorpio N, Thar, XUV 700 and its born electric offerings. The brand was smart enough to update its Bolero range along with other launches to keep the momentum running in its favour – allowing it to climb to second position ahead of Tata Motors and Hyundai.
