The subcompact SUVs sell like hot cakes in India. A total of 43,072 units of the sub-4 meter SUVs sold in June 2021, which is up by 192.31% over 14,735 units of the same month last year. The segment registered 76.35% monthly sales growth against 24,399 units of May 2021. What’s interesting to notice that the Tata Nexon became the second top-selling subcompact SUV in the country. The home-grown carmaker managed to sell 8,033 units of the Nexon, which are significantly higher than the Kia Sonet and Hyundai Venue.

The Tata Nexon recorded 164.24% sales growth over 3,040 units of June 2020. It currently holds 18.65% market share. Maruti Suzuki’s Vitara Brezza reclaimed the first spot with total sales of 12,833 units as opposed to 4,542 units of June 2020. It accounted a growth of 182.54%. Just so you know, the Kia Sonet outnumbered the Vitara Brezza, Nexon and Venue in May 2021. Now, the compact SUV stood at number three with sales of 5,963 units. Its sales declined by 10.02% in June 2021, compared to May 2021.

The Mahindra XUV300, Ford EcoSport and Nissan Magnite became the fifth, sixth and seventh top-selling subcompact last month respectively.

The Nissan Magnite recorded a MoM growth of 171% with total sales of 3,252 units, which is over 2,000 units higher than May 2020.

In coming months, the top-selling Maruti VItara Brezza subcompact SUV will witness a generation change. Auto manufacturers such as Citroen, MG, Jeep and Honda are ready to foray into the fiercer sub-4 meter SUV space. Citroen C3 has been slated to hit roads during 2021 festive season. MG’s and Jeep’s small SUVs might arrive sometime next year, while the launch timeline of the Honda compact SUV is yet to be revealed.
