Maruti Suzuki WagonR crosses 35 lakh production milestone in India

Maruti Suzuki WagonR achieves a historic milestone of 35 lakh cumulative production units in India, reflecting over two decades of customer trust and success.

Maruti Suzuki India Limited has achieved a major production milestone with the WagonR crossing 35 lakh units of cumulative production in India. Spanning three generations, the landmark highlights the enduring popularity, trust and strong emotional connect the WagonR enjoys among millions of Indian customers.

First launched in December 1999, the WagonR has grown to become one of India’s most recognisable and best-selling hatchbacks. With this achievement, the WagonR joins Maruti Suzuki’s Alto and Swift as the only models from the brand to surpass the 35-lakh production mark.

The Maruti Suzuki WagonR is currently manufactured at the company’s production facilities in Gurgaon and Manesar, in Haryana, supporting domestic demand and reinforcing the model’s role as a cornerstone of Maruti Suzuki’s portfolio in India.

Mr. Hisashi Takeuchi, Managing Director & CEO, Maruti Suzuki India Limited, said, “This achievement is not just a production milestone, but reflects the enduring love and confidence that generations of customers have shown towards brand WagonR. It is rare for a vehicle to receive such acceptance even after 25 years since its launch. The WagonR kept evolving with the introduction of new technology and features over time, while retaining its original DNA. The WagonR has been highly appreciated for aspects like its iconic tall-boy design, spacious interiors and fuel efficiency, which aptly reflect our customers’ needs and expectations. We are deeply grateful for their continued support and remain committed to providing ‘Joy of Mobility’ for generations to come.”

In Japan, Suzuki WagonR was first introduced in September 1993. Developed as a semi-bonnet style mini wagon, it gained immense popularity as a comfortable and easy-to-use car. It is manufactured across Japan, India, Hungary, and Indonesia. At present, WagonR is sold in more than 75 countries and regions across the world, including Japan, India and Europe. In August 2025, the Suzuki WagonR crossed the accumulated sales of 1 crore units.
