Hyundai India, the largest car exporter and the second largest car manufacturer in India has increased the production of the newly launched Grand i10 hatchback car model. The step has been taken by the Korean carmaker in order to address the increase in demand and consequently the waiting period for the car.
According to Mr. Rakesh Srivastava Senior Vice President and Division Head (Marketing & Sales) Hyundai Motor India Ltd (HMIL), the carmaker is recalibrating the production to make faster deliveries and reduce the waiting period of the new car model.
