Continuing its supremacy, sales of the Brezza were way ahead of the competition this March. It sold 1500+ units more last month than it did in February 2018. With more than 5,000 units sold in March, the Ford EcoSport stands second on the chart. Despite that, Ford might not be too pleased as the EcoSport is also the only car in this sales comparison to register a negative month-on-month growth. The biggest surprise, though, has to be the Honda WRV. The crossover sold 1,000 units more in March than it did in the previous month. In doing so, it overtook the Nexon to clinch the third position, though only by a small margin.

Whichever way we compare the sales, there’s no stopping the Brezza. The Maruti SUV’s figures grew by more than 3,000 units in March 2018 compared to the corresponding month last year. Meanwhile, the EcoSport and the WRV’s sales pale in comparison to the Brezza. Since the Tata Nexon is a newbie, having launched in September last year, there are no corresponding figures.
