Midsize SUVs are led by the Hyundai Creta at 11,549 units sold, a growth of 75 percent. Its sister car, the Kia Seltos came second as Kia sold 8270 units in July.

Third came the Scorpio with slight sales increase at 3135 units, followed by the Hector and Harrier which saw a solid 34 percent and 33 percent rise, respectively. The remainder of the list saw sales plummet badly. Models like the XUV500, Compass, Duster and the Kicks saw numbers decline badly.
