With Diwali fast approaching, car sales are picking up again. Last month, the Maruti Swift found the most customers in the car market, making it the best selling car in India. Meanwhile, the Hyundai Creta was the most popular SUV around.

Amid the Covid-19 Pandemic which put an enormous amount of stress on the Indian automobile industry, it has come as a relief that sales of both two-wheelers and four-wheelers have increased significantly in the past two months. The industry has seen a growth of double-digit figures. Last month, the Maruti Swift was the best selling car in India while the Hyundai Creta was the most popular SUV. Here, IndianAuto provides a list of 10 top-selling cars in India for October 2020.

The Maruti Suzuki Swift has been a consistent figure in the top-selling cars in India for over a decade now. The hatchback retains the number one position with its newest iteration and is currently the most sold vehicle in 2020. As the best-selling car in India, Maruti Suzuki sold 24,859 units of the Swift in October, which is a 28.13% YOY growth from last year. In October 2019, Maruti Suzuki sold 19,401 units of the Swift.
