    Top-five hatchbacks sold in India in September 2021

    The hatchback segment sales have been affected to a large extent due to the global shortage of semiconductors.

The following list of top-five compact hatchbacks also includes models from the premium hatchback segment and the entry hatchback segment. 

    The top-five compact hatchbacks sold in India last month are as follows – 

    Maruti Suzuki Alto
