"We are proud to announce that NEXA continues to maintain its leading position as the third largest automobile brand in India," said Shashank Srivastava, Executive Director for Marketing and Sales at Maruti Suzuki India Limited. "It helped us attract new set of customers who were earlier not considering us. This is evident from the fact that pre-determined buyers for NEXA cars have increased from 26% to over 50% in FY’2021.

Srivastava also added that there is a whole lot of thought process which goes behind deciding which Maruti product will be offered under the Nexa brand. "Matching the uniqueness and exclusivity of NEXA, the products sold at NEXA showrooms are carefully designed keeping in mind the global experience of Nexa customers," he said.

When first launched, Nexa only had the S-Cross in its showrooms but the product list has now gone up significantly. There are currently over 370 showrooms in around 200 cities in the country.
