Hyundai is the longest-running and most successful foreign car brand in India. However, these days, the Korean carmaker largely relies on its best-selling car, the Hyundai Creta, while other Hyundai cars are falling short of expectations. Last month, there were some notable updates on the list of top-selling Hyundai cars. For example, the Hyundai Exter outsold not only the Hyundai Grand i10 Nios and Hyundai i20, but also the Hyundai Aura, becoming the third-best-selling Hyundai car. Here is a closer look at the top-selling Hyundai cars and learn how the Creta became the best-selling Hyundai car once again.
Why is the Hyundai Creta the Best-Selling Hyundai Car in April 2026?
In April 2026, the Hyundai Creta was the best-selling Hyundai car and the best-selling SUV. While the Creta has multiple attractive traits, its strongest is its value proposition, which is more appealing than ever today. With top variants of some compact SUVs reaching nearly Rs. 15 lakh, for example, the Tata Nexon and Maruti Brezza, the Creta offers better value with its mid-variants placed in a similar price range. Meanwhile, recently, there has been a significant growth in the demand for the Hyundai Creta Electric, which is adding considerable volumes to the Creta’s net sales.
