Good excuse to hide their position.

Maruti Suzuki Swift recorded its highest sales ever in the month of December 2009. 10,900 customers bought a Swift in that 31 day period!

Wow!

Still the aged swift is making its way to top ?

Great! Huge offers made it to the charts.

 

[Aditya]

2005 to 2010 does make it aged ... but it still looks contemporary!!

 

[cooldhaya]

No wonder the Swift keeps topping the charts even after 5 years that too without any cosmetic upgrades! My parents also insisted me to buy a new Swift but i wanted to be somewhat unique , so chose Verna. Its not a common sight everywhere unlike Swift.

 

[Akash]

Wow 10900 is a huge figure, but again the car is worth its value. The peppy engine and superb japanese looks never let one down in terms of styling and performance. Lets see how consistent these figures remain with the new Swift K12.

Great to see Wagon R figures still rocking.

And hope Manza is giving tough competetion to Dzire.

Making its way to Top 10 is not that easy & Manza has proven it.

Got some news on the beat.Waiting period stretching beyond 30 days in some cities.GM ramping up its capacity at Talegaon.According to my sources GM expecting 3000 odd units for Jan. 5K by march.

Nice to see Alto toppng the charts the only reason of it being a VFM product.
I think Innova is again topping the sales in the MUV segment.

 

[Aditya]

The Manza figures are pretty impressive too ... Maruti will be getting worried!!

Nice piece of Information. Beat is a great VFM product and this kind of response was expected looking at the features, styling and pricing of the car.
