Maruti Suzuki India has started commercial production at the fourth plant of its Hansalpur facility in Gujarat, adding 2.5 lakh units to its annual capacity.
The expansion takes the company’s total production capacity to 2.9 million vehicles and makes Hansalpur India’s largest single-location passenger vehicle manufacturing facility. The plant has an annual capacity of one million vehicles and will initially produce the Maruti Suzuki e VITARA, the company’s first electric vehicle.
The expansion strengthens Maruti Suzuki’s manufacturing and export capabilities as it prepares to meet rising domestic demand and accelerate its electric mobility plans.
