Top Selling Cars in India October 2025 – New SUV Disrupts Creta’s Rule!


The Indian auto market has just delivered one of the most exciting sales reports of the year. The Top 25 Selling Cars in India October 2025 list is out, and it’s packed with surprises. While Tata’s dominance continues, the real story is the explosive arrival of a new contender that’s shaking up the entire mid-SUV segment.
But what’s really happening in the market, and which models are winning the festive-season battle?
SUVs Dominate, Hatchbacks Sidelined


The data for October 2025 makes one thing crystal clear: India’s love for SUVs is only growing stronger. The sales chart is dominated by sub-4m and mid-size SUVs, which seem to be capturing all the market momentum.
Despite the recent GST revision aimed at helping smaller cars, hatchbacks have not gained the desired traction. In a significant shift, there was no hatchback in the Top selling cars of the month. The volumes have decisively shifted towards the high-riding, bold-stanced SUV body style.
Top Performers of the Month

Tata Nexon Retains the Crown The Tata Nexon held on to its title as India’s best-selling car for October 2025. With an incredible dispatch of over 22,000 units, the Nexon posted a massive 50% year-on-year growth. This performance solidifies its position as the undisputed king of the passenger vehicle market.
Maruti’s Consistent Champions Maruti Suzuki’s stalwarts filled the next two spots. The Maruti Suzuki Dzire sedan secured the second position with 20,791 units, proving that sedans still have a strong, loyal customer base. It was immediately followed by its MUV sibling, the Maruti Suzuki Ertiga, at the number three spot.
The Mid-SUV Battle Heats Up

This is where the market dynamics get truly interesting. The Hyundai Creta was once again the best-selling mid-size SUV, clocking in over 18,000 units in sales. It continues to be a dominant force, thanks to its brand loyalty and feature-rich package.
However, a new challenger has just entered the ring and is already landing heavy punches.
The Maruti Victoris Shakes the Market Maruti’s latest launch, the Marutis Suzuki Victoris, has made a stunning debut, ranking second in mid-SUV sales right out of the gate. In only its second month since launch, Maruti dispatched around 13,500 units of the Victoris, placing it 13th on the overall best-sellers list.
This is a direct assault on the Hyundai Creta’s territory. Maruti is clearly eyeing the mid-SUV crown, and while shaking the Creta’s long-standing dominance won’t be easy, the Victoris’s initial numbers are incredibly impressive.
Expert Verdict: The Nexon’s Reign vs. The New SUV War
The October 2025 sales data reveals two key stories. First, the Tata Nexon’s 50% growth shows its leadership is not just stable; it’s accelerating. It has successfully created a brand that buyers trust for safety, design, and technology.
Second, the Maruti Victoris vs. Hyundai Creta battle is officially the one to watch. The Victoris’s blockbuster entry proves that Maruti has a winner on its hands. With a strong brand, a massive dealership network, and a product that is clearly resonating with buyers, the mid-SUV segment is about to become a full-blown warzone.
