The Top 25 best-selling cars list in the first month of the new calendar year shows the continued dominance of SUVs while other body types did have a place scattered across the table. The Tata Nexon topped the sales chart in January 2026 with 23,365 units posting a 52 per cent year-on-year growth when compared to the same period last year.
The compact SUV’s safety ratings, wide powertrain choice including EV and regular updates continue to draw buyers. The Maruti Suzuki Dzire secured second place at 19,629 units – growing 28 per cent YoY – as the arrival of the new generation has helped in garnering more consumers. Tata Punch followed third with 19,257 units – registering a 19 per cent increase.
The Hyundai Creta ranked fourth with 17,921 units though it recorded a slight 3 per cent decline compared to last year. Even so, Creta remains one of India’s most influential midsize SUVs. The Maruti Suzuki Ertiga finished in the fifth position with 17,892 units as against 14,248 units with a volume growth of 26 per cent on a YoY basis.
