The SUV market in India has expanded rapidly in recent years. Between 2018 and 2019, Indians purchased 21% more SUVs than the prior year. The ever-increasing demand for high-riding cars has prompted manufacturers to work on launching new and more inexpensive SUVs in the nation on a regular basis. Many factors contribute to the increased number of SUV vehicles in India.
SUV vehicles, for example, can negotiate even the most difficult terrains. Furthermore, they are seen as safer than hatchbacks and sedans. SUVs are the preferred vehicle for owners who live in flood-prone areas of India.
