“We are working on a 800cc car which will be similar to the Maruti 800. The car is under joint development in our Indian and Korean R&D facilities. The ultimate desire is to become India’s largest car maker,” said Hyundai Motor India MD & CEO H S Lheem.
Maruti Suzuki currently leads the small car segment in India with Hyundai trailing at the second position. HMIL plans to expand its market share and occupy larger market share in the country. It has set a target of 22 percent market share in the current year.
“The small car market is going strong and will continue to do so. Our small car will be meant for both the domestic and the export market. However, we neither have the technology nor any plan to fight the Nano,” said Lheem.
