Suzuki Dzire Beats Honda City To Become India’s #1 Sedan: Check Top 10 List

Speaking of the best-selling sedans, Maruti Suzuki Dzire has its competitors such as Amaze, Aura, City, Verna and others giving run for their money.

What is clear from these numbers is that the Maruti Suzuki still dominates this segment but one of the most noticeable is the decline in sales figures for some cars. Apart from Dzire, others have taken a big step towards numbers.

The five seats recorded a total domestic collection of 14,073 units in April 2021. It costs between Rs. 5.98 lakh and Rs. 9.03 lakh (ex-showroom) and powered by a 1.2 liter four-cylinder DualJet petrol engine that produces a maximum power of 89 bhp at 6,000 rpm and 113 Nm of high torque delivered at 4,400 rpm.

The powertrain is connected to a five-speed manual or five-speed AMT transmission. Honda Amaze finished in second place with 3,920 units last month and has been finishing regularly in that area. Thirdly, the main rival of Dzire and Amaze, Hyundai Aura has acquired a total of 3,347 units in the domestic market.
