Here is a look at the top three sedans sold in India in January.

Maruti Suzuki Dzire

Maruti Suzuki Dzire, in its new generation, has been the top-selling model in this category. Launched in its new avatar back in 2017, which later received a minor facelift two years ago, remains a hot favourite in the sub-compact sedan segment. Maruti sold 14,976 units of Dzire, almost 4,000 units more than it sold in December last year. The Dzire sub-compact sedan had a sales figure of 15,125 units back in January last year, which shows that the model has been quite consistent in its sales on year-on-year basis.

Maruti offers Dzire in India in seven variants, all offered with petrol engines paired with either a five-speed manual or four-speed automatic gearbox. The 1.2-litre petrol engine can generate a maximum output of 89 bhp and 113 Nm of peak torque.
