In the latest update, the Maruti Suzuki car waiting period has been a topic of interest to many. This is because every Indian customer wants to buy this brand and it has been the top-selling car brand in India for years now. Talking about 2023, the Indian carmaker will also have a price hike throughout the lineup which is possibly why people are keen to buy or book within December itself.

The top-selling MPV in India has been setting new sales records! So much so that the waiting period for this car now has surged up to 9 months! Well, that’s quite a lot considering the number of cars MSIL produces every month and year. Apart from this, other models in the lineup have also faced an increase in the waiting period. Here, we are talking particularly about MS Arena which is one of the domestic sales channels for the brand.
