Be it Kashmir or Kanyakumari, Thar desert or the hills of Arunachal, a car will be seen everywhere on the roads of the country. That is Maruti Suzuki’s WagonR. It has been one of the best selling cars of Maruti due to its low price, large size and economical mileage. Meanwhile, a figure released by Maruti Suzuki confirms why it is the most loved car in the country. The sales figure of the country’s popular hatchback car WagonR has crossed 3 million units in the last two decades.
Giving this information in a statement on Tuesday, MSI said that the sales figure of 3 million units reflects the success of the WagonR model in the country. The company’s senior executive officer (sales and marketing) Shashank Srivastava said, “This reflects the undisputed position of WagonR as one of India’s most iconic hatchbacks.”
First introduced in the Indian market in 1999, the WagonR crossed the five lakh unit sales mark in 2008. After that the figure of 20 lakhs was crossed in 2017 and the sales figure of 25 lakh units in 2021. Srivastava said that around 24 per cent of the customers who owned a WagonR have shown their attachment to the model by buying new versions in subsequent years.
