The country’s largest carmaker Maruti Suzuki will launch multiple electric vehicles models in India in its bid to catch up with competitors and become a leader in the segment, despite not being present there at present, according to the company’s new Managing Director and CEO Hisashi Takeuchi.
The company, which plans to launch its first EV model in 2025, also plans to produce EVs from its factories in future when the demand for EVs picks up in the country. To start with, the first EV will be rolled out from Suzuki Motor Gujarat’s plant.
We are a little behind our competitors in introducing the (EV) model to the Indian market, but we see that still, the market demand for those EVs is limited.
