Explaining the genesis of Maruti Suzuki 3.0, R C Bhargava, Chairman, Maruti Suzuki India Limited, said: “Our first phase was when we were a public enterprise. The second phase ended with the COVID-19 pandemic, and the Indian car market became the third largest in the world. It took us 40 years to create a capacity of 2 million units and Suzuki Motor Corporation helped in this process by establishing the Gujarat facility. Your Company now has to add the next 2 million in a period of 9 years.”
Expressing his confidence in the global economy, Bhargava said: “Our exports rose to 2,59,000 units last year. We expect the demand for exports to continue to grow and export volumes are projected at 7,50,000-8,00,000 cars by FY31.”
