Getting straight to the point: the ranking of the best-selling SUVs is the truest thermometer of what is happening at dealerships this month. In October, the partial results up to the 20th show significant changes on the podium and open a rare window for negotiating price, timing, and version — especially for those who follow the daily average of registrations and notice when there is stock clearance or a shift in mix.

We used the partial results from October 1st to 20th, focusing on the volume of the month, variation in pace compared to September, and a reading by subsegment. The goal is not to “cheer” for brands, but to translate the retail movement: availability, campaigns, and price sensitivity in B-SUVs, as well as version strategies in C-SUVs.

Top 12 in the Ranking of Best-Selling SUVs Up to October 20th

This month’s ranking brings a new leader and some significant declines. Here’s the snapshot of the moment: 1) VW Tera, 6,125; 2) Hyundai Creta, 4,841; 3) Honda HR-V, 3,591; 4) Nissan Kicks, 3,516; 5) Chevrolet Tracker, 3,355; 6) Fiat Fastback, 3,300; 7) Jeep Compass, 3,257; 8) Toyota Corolla Cross, 2,961; 9) VW T-Cross, 2,597; 10) Chery Tiggo 7, 2,510; 11) Jeep Renegade, 2,408; 12) Fiat Pulse, 2,404.

Trend Line vs. Year-to-Date

It is common for the year leader not to be the monthly leader. In October, although the T-Cross has the highest sales volume of the year in the segment, the monthly snapshot shows a loss of momentum, opening space for Tera and Creta. The Corolla Cross, on the other hand, still appears high in the year-to-date, but the drop in partial results suggests a prioritization of other families or an adjustment in offering by version.

Practical Implications for Those Buying Now

If you want to negotiate: look for models in a temporary decline — like Corolla Cross in this partial — as networks tend to unlock bonuses. For better value for money: Tera and Creta are enjoying a good turnover moment, which helps with timing and choice of color/version. For after-sales and future liquidity: HR-V remains strong and typically preserves its reputation and resale value.

What to Observe in the Coming Weeks

Daily average: above the “historical standard” usually indicates commercial effort or arrival of stock; 2) Version mix: rapid changes in the best-selling configurations forecast price adjustments; 3) Direct competition: if a B-SUV gains momentum, nearby rivals respond with rate, package, or increased production; 4) End of month: the automotive retail sector is sensitive to transitions — expect noise and good opportunities.

Quick Questions (FAQ)

What is “partial”? It is the snapshot of the month up to the stated date, useful for understanding trends before closing. Why do some cars “disappear” all of a sudden? Usually due to a temporary lack of specific versions, prioritization of exports, or factory adjustments. Can the consolidated data be predicted? Not with precision, but the combination of daily average + delivery schedule usually signals the outcome.

Quick Questions (FAQ)

Forget petroleum-based asphalt: a Scottish company transforms 684,000 plastic bottles into one kilometer of road that is 60% more resistant and up to 10 times more durable, and the technology has already started replacing traditional asphalt in more than 30 countries.

With billions in loans, China is rebuilding Nigeria’s railway network from scratch, abandoning the British colonial tracks that have turned to scrap and creating a corridor of over 1,300 km to take the load off the roads of Africa’s largest economy.

Austrian engineers have developed an inflatable concrete technology that transforms flat slabs into domes using only air pressure, eliminating scaffolding and temporary forms, and potentially changing the way bridges, tunnels, and curved roofs are constructed worldwide.

Australia prepares to dredge 96.5 million m³ in Moreton Bay to deepen, widen, and realign channels of the Port of Brisbane, in a project of up to 25 years designed to accommodate larger ships and enhance maritime safety and regional port efficiency.

Study solves great ancient mystery: remains of Philip II, father of Alexander the Great, are identified in Vergina and resolves the enigma of the Macedonian royal tombs that had lasted half a century.

Larger than the Toyota Hilux and with a towing capacity of 3.5 tons, the new MG U9 2026 features a 2.5 turbodiesel engine, 520 Nm, 4×4 traction with three locks, and an almost full-size build.

The Brazilian Army is about to finalize one of the largest military purchases in recent years with Italy, consisting of 96 Centauro 2 armored vehicles with 120 mm cannons and three anti-aircraft batteries unprecedented in the country, including armed drones under negotiation.

Now NASA comes: Brazilian transforms pickups into “war tanks” in Goiânia by replacing wheels with giant tracks costing up to R$ 120,000 to tackle mud, farms, and impossible terrains.

Another Chinese giant prepares to enter Brazil: BAIC bets on the Arcfox T1, an electric hatchback that promises to compete with the BYD Dolphin, BYD Dolphin Mini, and Geely EX2 with a larger size and a range of up to 425 km.

The “freshwater lid” that worries scientists: Greenland melts, could weaken Atlantic currents and is already being monitored by robots, satellites, and artificial intelligence before altering the climate in the coming decades.
