10. BYD Sealion 7 – Top 10 Luxury Cars

BYD sold a healthy 2,213 Sealion units last year. This seems particularly impressive for an EV that costs between Rs 52.33 lakh and Rs 58.32 lakh (on-road, Mumbai). It shows that Indians have trusted the relatively new Chinese brand. The Sealion is a great package of features and performance, being one of the reasons for its success.

9. BMW 3-Series

2,328 units of the 3-series were sold last year. It costs between Rs. 72.56 lakh and Rs 76.87 lakh (on-road, Mumbai). Moreover, it is important to note that India only gets the long-wheelbase as standard, which makes the price tag seem fair.

8. Land Rover Defender – Top 10 Luxury Cars

The hype for the Defender isn’t limited to the internet, as it sold 2,470 units last year. It is quite expensive, priced between Rs 1.30 crore and Rs 3.29 crore (on-road, Mumbai). These high prices are due to the unit being a CBU. Fortunately, these prices will see a significant cut once the India-EU FTA deal is in place, making one of the best off-roaders in the world more accessible.

7. BMW 5-Series

The 5 Series is BMW’s bread and butter. It has been one of its most important models historically. BMW sold 2,534 units of it last year. Interestingly, it is offered in a single LWB variant that costs Rs 90.11 lakh (on-road, Mumbai).

6. Mercedes GLC – Top 10 Luxury Cars

The GLC is Mercedes’s first entry on the list, having sold 2,631 units last year. The GLC carries a price tag of around Rs 90.01 lakh and Rs 91.58 lakh (on-road, Mumbai). It managed such sales despite its price hike in June last year. 

5. Mercedes GLS  

The GLS overtook its smaller sibling, the GLC, in sales last year, with 2,645 units sold last year. It is priced between Rs 1.52 crore and Rs 1.66 crore (on-road, Mumbai). The GLS recently received a facelift in global markets, and we could see it in India pretty soon.

4. BMW X1 – Top 10 Luxury Cars

It must come as no surprise to see the X1 on this list, as it has been quite popular in India for some time. Last year, BMW recorded 2,734 units in X1 sales. Yet, the X1 wasn’t the best-selling BMW last year. It costs between Rs 60.43 lakh and Rs 64.14 lakh (on-road, Mumbai)

3. BMW iX1

The iX1 was the best-selling BMW model last year. BMW sold 2,786 units of the X1. The key reason for its success is that it costs Rs 54.43 Lakh (on-road, Mumbai). It is significantly cheaper than the petrol version, and it makes more sense to buy the iX1 instead. Both the electric and ICE variants are LWB versions, making the iX1 even more value for money.

2. Mercedes GLE – Top 10 Luxury Cars

The GLE was the best-selling luxury SUV, selling 2,900 units in 2025. It is priced between Rs 1.19 crore and Rs 1.38 Crore, indicating strong demand for cars exceeding the Rs 1 Crore mark. If the flagship GLS exceeds your budget, the GLE is probably your best bet.

1. Mercedes E-Class

The Mercedes E-Class was the best-selling luxury car of 2025, and by quite some margin. Mercedes sold 4,117 E-Class units last year, more than 1,200 units ahead of the second-place model and 1,500 units ahead of the 5 Series. If you want to buy the most popular luxury car in the country, you would have to pay between Rs 93.50 lakh and Rs 1.09 crore (on-road, Mumbai).
