Eagerly waiting for your dream car to get delivered makes you count days for the moment, sleepless night is what makes us feel. Sometimes many factors affect delay in delivery of the car to the customer like unavailability of the model, high demand for the car, low production. This year all the car manufactures are facing the same, due to shortage of Semiconductor has made the production volume down. This serves in high waiting period. Today we will see top 10 cars in India which have great demand but due to low production capacity the waiting period has gone upto 1 year.
1. Mahindra Thar
Thar was launched in India on October 2020, Mahindra had launched this car at very aggressive pricing which pulled many car enthusiasts, the 2nd gen Thar is made for both lifestyle commute and for those who take their car off-road.

2. Hyundai Creta
Launched in March 2020, Hyundai launched its 2nd gen Creta. We know how the 1st gen Creta built its image in the mid size SUV market. Creta name itself was a brand, that image is been continued by the new Creta, with sales number of 11k-12k per month is unbeatable. But this demand has negatively affected the waiting period. Upto 9-10 months is what Creta is asking to wait for. The demand was so high for the base variant, which later Hyundai decided to hike its price and later discontinue it to cope up with demand.
3. Maruti Suzuki Ertiga
The family car which got a 3nd gen model in Nov 2018, the new design, features and updates attracted the MPV lovers. There is no proper competition to the Ertiga.

Semiconductor shortage is affected Mahindra too and they are trying their best to supply cars.
