Compact SUV Segment
| July 2022 | July 2023 | YoY Growth | |
| Maruti Brezza | 16,543 units | 9,709 units | 70% |
| Tata Nexon | 14,214 units | 12,349 units | -13% |
The compact SUV segment is one of the fastest-growing categories in the Indian automobile market. In the last few years, almost all major players have their products in this space. While the Brezza is the top-selling SUV in July, Tata Nexon is the second product in this space. Tata was able to sell 12,349 units of the Nexon last month. Unfortunately, it sold 14,214 units in the July of 2022 making a significant 13% decline in year-on-year sales. The reason for that is quite simple. Maruti introduced a new model of the Brezza with new-age features taking away the customers from other products in the segment.

Interestingly, the newly launched Fronx sold an impressive 13,220 units in July 2023. This is quite high considering the space in which it exists. Moreover, Maruti has its own cars which could be alternatives to the Fronx like the Baleno and Brezza. Still, these numbers represent the mad popularity Maruti cars have in our market. Maruti Grand Vitara mid-size SUV sold a respectable 9,079 units in the same month. The Hyundai Exter has impressed everyone with 7,000 units dispatched in the first month of sales already.
