If figures are taken into account, Toyota Etios managed to touch the mark of selling 5002 cars in June, whereas Maruti was able to sell around 2,846 units of Maruti Dzire. Therefore, it clearly shows that Toyota Etios is the best selling sedan in the Indian auto market at present. The main thing that has to be noticed here is that Toyota Etios managed to touch the mark of selling 5000 units without having a diesel variant of the sedan, which is certainly remarkable.

If Tata Manza would have managed to touch the sales figures of 3,000 units in the month of June, then it could have beaten Maruti Swift Dzire. But, sadly the lukewarm sales of Maruti Dzire is also because of the workers’ strike at the Maruti's Manesar plant in early June. However, it is expected that Maruti India will cover up for its sad sales in July. On the other hand, the Ford Fiesta Classic did a decent job in its sales in the month of June. Ford India managed to sell around 1,077 units of Ford Fiesta Classic in June.
