India is probably home to one of the largest car user populations in the world. This makes this country a favorite breeding ground for the world’s leading car manufacturers. Most of the world’s most respected car manufacturers even have their own vehicle manufacturing and assembly units in India. In this article, we will particularly discuss the most popular SUV cars in the country.

Before introducing you to some of the most widely used SUVs in India, let us explain what makes these cars so popular in this part of the world.

It’s true that SUVs typically consume much more diesel or gasoline than most other varieties of vehicles; even so, they are the favorites of the Indians for their amazing capacity for accommodation. Indians usually have large families and therefore having cars that can accommodate all family members is extremely important to them.

Furthermore, in addition to having a large seating capacity, the SUVs launched by major automakers in recent years boast remarkable style and power, which has further increased their popularity.

The first vehicle of this type that we will talk about is manufactured and marketed by the Japanese automaker Mitsubishi. It is called Mitsubishi Pajero Sport. The car has everything a person looking for a sport utility vehicle would want their car to have. It was initially launched with manual transmission but a year ago, the automaker even launched a new model with automatic transmission for the Indian users. The new version of the vehicle has been baptized as Pajero Sport Automatic. The fuel efficiency of the car is truly amazing; Both the automatic and manual versions provide users with a staggering 12.1 km/l fuel efficiency.

The next most popular SUV model in India is Ford Ecosport. This car is loved by anyone in particular due to its attractive interiors and compact size. This sport utility vehicle offers sufficient legroom and ample head and shoulder room, making driving an extremely comfortable experience. This Ford creation is available in diesel and gasoline models; So far, the company has launched four diesel and six gasoline models for Indian users.

Next, we will talk about a complete Indian-made vehicle. It is called the Mahindra Scorpio, a vehicle with a perfectly elegant finish. The mileage that this car offers, while not as high as that of the Pajero Sport series of SUVs, is quite impressive. Mahindra Scorpio offers a mileage of 10.5 km/l. You can expect the mileage to be higher when driving on highways.
