Top 10 Midsize SUVs Sep 2025 – Creta, Scorpio, XUV700, Hyryder, Victoris

GaadiWaadi -

In the table of top 10 midsize SUVs in September 2025, Hyundai Creta continued to lead ahead of Mahindra Scorpio and Mahindra XUV700

The range of midsize SUVs continues to be the flag-bearer in the premium space in India’s passenger vehicle market and last month was another auspicious one for the segment. The Hyundai Creta retained its iron grip at the top while Mahindra Scorpio and XUV700 kept the heat on. The Toyota Hyryder and Tata Harrier, meanwhile, posted strong double- and triple-digit growth respectively.

The Creta remained the undisputed leader clocking 18,861 units in September with a healthy 19 per cent jump over last year’s tally of 15,862 units and it was the second most sold SUV in the country following the Tata Nexon. Most of the SUVs in the list benefitted from the commencement of festive season and tempting price drops courtesy of the GST 2.0 tax regime.

Close on its tail, Mahindra’s Scorpio line including both the Classic and N variants took second place with 18,372 units – up 27 per cent year-on-year. In the third position, Mahindra XUV700 continued its strong run with 9,764 units – posting a marginal 1 per cent growth over last year. The Toyota Hyryder surged ahead in the fourth position with 7,608 unit sales – up 41 per cent from last year, thanks to its hybrid powertrain.

The Kia Seltos followed in the fifth position with a domestic tally of 5,816 units – down 16 per cent as new competitors chipped away at its market share.

However, the spotlight was on its new sibling  – the Maruti Suzuki Victoris – which debuted with 4,261 units in its very first month.

Tata Motors had a particularly strong showing. The Harrier saw a massive 161 per cent jump – rising to 4,181 units from just 1,600 last year, bolstered by its expansive range and the arrival of the electric version. The Safari, too, grew 22 per cent to 2,000 units. Rounding off the top 10, Honda’s Elevate stayed steady with 2,199 units – up 12 per cent year-on-year.

Mahindra BE6 Rall-E Spotted Testing – Launch Likely Next Year

GaadiWaadi -

The recent sighting of the rugged Rall-E version of the BE6 electric SUV suggests that the launch is around the corner

Mahindra & Mahindra is working on multiple new electric SUVs for the Indian market, including the XUV3XO EV and XEV 7e. In line with this, the test mule of a rugged off-road oriented version of the BE6 electric SUV was recently spotted, which will likely go by the name BE6 Rall-E.

The Rall-E version of the BE6 was showcased in concept form back in 2023 and was also on display at the 2024 Bharat Mobility Expo. While the test prototype was heavily camouflaged, it appeared product-ready.

The launch timeline of Mahindra’s upcoming rugged electric SUV is not clear; however, the frequent test mule spottings hint at an imminent market debut, probably sometime next year. In addition to the BE6 Rall-E, the Indian SUV manufacturer is also working on the XUV3XO EV and XEV 7e 7-seater electric SUV, both of which are also expected to go on sale in 2026.

Talking about the details of the BE6 Rall-E test mule, the overall design language is the same as the regular BE6, albeit with some minor changes. It gets a round headlamp setup upfront, the same unit seen on the concept version, which is different from what we get in the regular model. A roof carrier and off-road spec tyres can also be seen in the spy images.

Apart from this, the front and rear bumpers seem to be new, which are most likely designed to suit the SUV’s off-road credentials. We could also spot green decals, black wheel arch cladding and steel wheels on the test prototype. The interiors of the BE6 Rall-E are under wraps, however, we expect only some minor variations as compared to the regular model.

The Mahindra BE6 Rall-E is expected to get an upgraded powertrain setup. The larger 79 kWh battery could be offered as standard with the rugged electric SUV. We also expect it to get a dual motor setup, channelling power to all four wheels.

The combined output from the dual electric motors will likely be around 389 bhp and 480 Nm of peak torque, however, nothing can be confirmed as of now. It might use a smart off-road electronic suit to control the power distribution to the front and rear axles, giving it the required off-road capabilities.

GaadiWaadi -

The inclusion of ADAS tech in two-wheelers highlights the rapid development in two-wheeler technology, with a prime focus on rider safety

ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance System), a safety feature which was once limited to the premium segment, is now available in a lot of mass-market cars. In fact, it has become an important selling point for four-wheelers in India. The two-wheeler market, on the other hand, mostly relies on simpler safety features like traction control and ABS. However, a few brands have started offering a basic suite of ADAS features in their flagship models. In this article, we will look at the 3 two-wheeler available in India with ADAS.

1. Ultraviolette X-47 Crossover

Ultraviolette, the home-grown electric two-wheeler manufacturer, recently launched the all-new X-47 Crossover at a starting price of Rs. 2.49 lakh (ex-showroom). The all-electric adventure motorcycle gets the Hypersense ADAS technology as standard, which uses a 77GHz rear-facing radar system. It provides essential safety aid with blind spot alerts and rear collision detection capability, with a tracking range of up to 200 metres.

The X-47 Crossover also comes equipped with a dual-camera dashcam. The electric motorcycle is available in two battery pack options, i.e. 7.1 kWh and 10.3 kWh, offering a maximum claimed range of up to 323 kilometres.

2. Ultraviolette Tesseract

The Tesseract e-scooter was launched earlier this year in March at a price tag of Rs. 1.45 lakh (ex-showroom). The all-electric maxi-scooter comes with a front and rear radar system, with integrated dashcam, offering features like blind-spot detection, collision alerts, lane change assist and more. This is a segment-first feature and also a first for an Indian electric scooter.

Ultraviolette has equipped its electric scooter with a 20.4 hp electric motor, claiming an IDC range of 261 kilometres on a single charge. The top speed of the Tesseract is limited to 125 kmph, and it is capable of sprinting to 60 kmph in 2.6 seconds.

It gets a camera-based ADAS suite with features like blind spot alerts, adaptive cruise control, collision warnings and traffic sign recognition. The front camera will also double up as a dashcam.

The S1 Pro Sport is powered by Ola’s new 4680 cell 5.2 kWh battery pack with an IDC claimed range of 320 kilometres on a single charge. The electric motor delivers 21.4 bhp and 71 Nm of torque, with a top speed of 152 kmph.

With customers deferring purchases for the first three weeks of the month in anticipation of lower GST rates, Maruti Suzuki saw an 8% decline in retail sales in September.

Tata Motors And Hyundai To Launch 5 New SUVs Soon

GaadiWaadi -

No less than 5 new models are coming from two popular car brands in India later this quarter

Tata Motors and Hyundai, two of India’s most popular car brands, are set to introduce five new cars soon. All five upcoming Tata and Hyundai models will be SUVs, expected to be priced between 7.5 lakh to 15 lakh rupees.

1. Next-gen Hyundai Venue

Image Source: PowerStroke

With a bolder exterior and classier interior, a multitude of new connectivity, convenience, comfort, and safety features, and updated, more efficient engines, the next-gen Hyundai Venue would bring a new level of sophistication to the sub-4 metre SUV segment. Hyundai plans to launch the all-new Venue on 4th November.

2. New Tata Punch

The Tata Punch, which was India’s best-selling car last year, is set to receive a facelift next month. The facelifted model should feature revised bumpers, a new lower grille, tweaked headlamp graphics, and new alloy wheels. Inside, a new two-spoke steering wheel featuring an illuminated brand logo, ventilated front seats, and new decor materials and seat covers could be among the updates. No mechanical changes are expected with the facelift.

3. All-new Tata Sierra

The Tata Sierra is returning to showrooms after a two-decade hiatus. The all-new model will be a 5-door SUV, though, offering better ingress and egress. Featuring a squarish exterior with a commanding stance, it will offer a far stronger road presence than current models in the segment like the Hyundai Creta and Maruti Grand Vitara. Inside, a front passenger display and a four-seat lounge version are expected to be among the first in the segment.

Tata Motors will likely offer the all-new Sierra with all-new 1.5-litre naturally aspirated and turbocharged petrol engines, and also a 1.5-litre turbocharged diesel engine. The company will likely launch this model also in November, followed by its pure electric variant, the Sierra.ev, in January next year.

4. Tata Harrier Petrol

The Tata Harrier will receive the same 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol engine as the all-new Sierra. This engine will develop 168 hp and 280 Nm of torque and likely come with both manual and automatic transmission options. Tata Motors is expected to introduce this engine in December and significantly reduce the Harrier’s entry price from the current 13,99,990 rupees (ex-showroom).

5. Tata Safari Petrol

Along with the Harrier, the Safari will likely also receive the 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol engine in December. Like in the five-seat SUV, Tata Motors should offer manual and automatic transmission options in the three-row model. Currently priced from 14,66,290 rupees (ex-showroom), the Safari will likely become significantly cheaper with the introduction of the new engine option.

Electric car sales crossed 15,000 units in September 2025 as it more than doubled last year’s tally courtesy of festive season

Last month was a certain turning point for India’s electric vehicle industry as the arrival of added discounts and the festive season had combined to record impressive sales tally as expected. Passenger vehicles and two-wheelers alike registered huge growth – indicating that EVs are moving beyond early adopters into the mainstream.

In the passenger EV space, total volume sales crossed 15,000 units as it more than doubled last year’s tally. Tata Motors led from the front by recording a total of 6,216 units with a massive 62 per cent jump over the same period twelve months ago.

The table of top 10 compact SUVs in Sep 2025 saw Tata Nexon finishing ahead of Punch, Fronx, Venue and Brezza in India

It is no secret that the compact SUV segment in India continues to draw customers’ interest and the month of September 2025 was no different. Tata Nexon once again took the lead, selling 22,573 units, nearly double the figure compared to the same period last year and it was also the most sold passenger vehicle in the country.

The SUV’s growth of 97 per cent year-on-year indicates its enduring appeal highlighted by regular feature updates, safety credentials and competitive pricing along with the expansive variant levels. The Tata Punch recorded 15,891 units to finish in the second position – up 16 per cent compared to the corresponding period in 2024.

Its compact footprint and easy manoeuvrability have made it particularly attractive to first-time SUV owners and it continues to be one of the main sources of volume sales every month for the homegrown manufacturer. The Maruti Suzuki Fronx remained largely steady in third with a domestic dispatch tally of 13,767 units.
