In the chart of top 10 midsize SUVs in Feb 2026, Hyundai Creta finished ahead of Mahindra Scorpio, Maruti Suzuki Victoris, Mahindra XUV 7XO and Kia Seltos
The midsize SUV category is undoubtedly one of the most competitive segments in the local market with several established nameplates and newer entrants battling for positions with the top 10. Last month’s sales figures showed how the space has evolved with multiple models posting healthy year-on-year growth while a few others witnessed noticeable declines compared to the same period last year.
Sitting at the top of the segment once again was the Hyundai Creta which registered 17,938 units in February 2026. The popular SUV from Hyundai Motor India continues to dominate the segment with consistent sales volumes. Compared to 16,317 units sold during February 2025, the Creta registered a 10 per cent year-on-year increase.
The second position went to the Mahindra Scorpio which posted sales of 14,665 units last month. The SUV, which includes both the Scorpio N and Scorpio Classic in the lineup, continues to attract buyers due to their capability and road presence. Compared to the 13,618 units sold in February last year, the Scorpio range grew by 8 per cent.
