From the chart, it is pretty clear that the Dzire is the best selling car in its segment, and that too by🧔 a huge margin. The Dzire controls about 60 per cent of the compact sedan market share.

While all the cars in this segment have s♋een a decline in sales, the Aspire has set itself apart with an increment of 104 per cent in its sales. The Tigor is th💧e biggest loser of the lot, with a decline of about 50 per cent, followed by the Amaze and the Etios at 28 per cent and 18 per cent, respectively.

Coming to YoY sales, while the majority 🌜of the cars registered slower sales in December 2017 compared to the previous year, the Dzire stood out from the lot and registered a growth of about 4💧4 per cent. The new Dzire was launched in mid-2017 and rose to popularity quickly. It was the best car of the lot in our comparison review as well.

Talking about the l⛄osers, like the MoM comparison, the Amaze remains the biggest loser, with a decline of 57 per cent, followed by the Etios and the Xcent at 45 per cent and 32 per cent respectively. Both the H♈onda Amaze and Toyota Etios have been around for quite some time now and need a major overhaul to better their sales numbers.
