Maruti Suzuki maintains its position as India's leading carmaker with a diverse current portfolio of 20 models, including popular hatchbacks like the Swift and Baleno, compact SUVs such as the Brezza, Victoris, and Fronx, family-oriented MPVs like the Ertiga and XL6, and premium options like the Grand Vitara and Invicto, along with new additions like the e Vitara EV and the updated 2026 Brezza, all emphasizing fuel-efficient petrol, CNG, and hybrid powertrains without diesel variants.
Consumers particularly appreciate the brand's reliability, low ownership costs, easy availability of spare parts through an extensive network of over 4,500 service touchpoints across the country, and value-for-money features that blend affordability with modern tech like touchscreen infotainment and safety aids.
Key strengths lie in its cost efficiency, strong dealer ecosystem, and adaptability to urban and rural needs, holding around 41% market share despite competitive pressures. In 2026 and beyond, Maruti is focusing on regaining dominance through new launches in high-growth segments like SUVs and EVs, including the e Vitara as its first electric vehicle produced in India for global export, major investments of approximately Rs 35,000 crore in a second Gujarat manufacturing facility, and advancements in flex-fuel and hybrid technologies to align with rising demand for sustainable mobility.
