On the list of top cars sold in November 2019, Maruti Suzuki Swift ruled the charts, with a total of 19,314 units sold as against 22,191 units sold in November 2018. The Maruti Suzuki Baleno, DZire, Alto and WagonR continued in quick succession with all except the WagonR at No. 5 on the list, noting positive sales. WagonR sales increased as much as 30 percent to 14,650 units in November 2019 as against 11,311 units sold in November 2018.
