The ranking of best-selling sedans in Brazil in 2025, with data consolidated until April 30, confirms the leadership of the Chevrolet Onix Plus, which remains the preferred model for Brazilians in the segment. In April, the General Motors sedan registered 4,274 units sold, surpassing its main competitors and also securing the first place in the year-to-date total, with 14,141 units sold.
The list reinforces the strength of compact and midsize sedans in the national market, showing that, despite the growth of SUVs, models like Onix Plus, Toyota Corolla, and Volkswagen Virtus still have strong appeal among consumers seeking comfort, interior space, and good performance in daily use. With different proposals and price ranges, these vehicles stand out for their reliability, embedded technology, and good resale value reputation.
Today we will present the details of the three models that lead sales in 2025 — Chevrolet Onix Plus, Toyota Corolla, and VW Virtus — and understand why they remain among the best-selling sedans in Brazil, even in an increasingly competitive market dominated by sports utility vehicles.

Hyundai has unveiled the Boulder, a square SUV with a body-on-frame design, 37-inch mud tires, and carriage-style doors that seems to be made to take on the Ford Bronco and the Scout Traveller in the United States.
