Japanese car manufacturer Suzuki Motor Corporation will invest £ 70,000 in India in the next five to six years to strengthen its operations in the country, his representative director and President Toshihiro Suzuki said Tuesday. Suzuki Motor Corporation, director and President Toshihiro Suzuki, said at the event: “Suzuki will invest more than £ 70,000 in India over the next 5-6 years.” Later, in an interaction with reporters, the chairman of Maruti Suzuki India RC Bhargava said the investments would be to reach the company’s goal of reaching 40 lakh units annually. “We are expanding to 4 million (units annually). The expansion of 4 million units of capacity, with all the supportive infrastructure and investment in R&D, and new technologies, all requires a lot of money,” Bhargava said when asked about areas where the investments are proposed. On the finalization of the second plant set up in Gujarat, announced last year for an £ 35,000 crore investment, Bhargava said: “I hope we will answer the question more specifically after the GST council meeting (on September 4), because after the fact that everyone will make an estimate of the impact of the GST decision.” However, he refused to comment on the implications of the proposed changes in GST pages. Suzuki Group, of which Maruti Suzuki India is part, has already invested more than £ 1 Lakh -Crore in India. These investments also led to the creation of more than 11 lakh direct work in the value chain. On the E Vitara, Bhargava said it would be for the export markets, and no timeline was set for the launch of the vehicle in the local market. The first group of export-bound E Vitara is manufactured exclusively at Suzuki Motor Gujarat (SMG), a unit of Maruti Suzuki India, and will from Pipavav port to the European region, including the United Kingdom, Germany, Norway, Huntary, Iceland, Oosalaly, Austria, and Belgium, Sweden, Hungry, Iceland, Iceland, Austria, sent. About the reasons for Maruti Suzuki who has not yet introduced the E Vitara in India, Bhargava said, apart from the meeting of the export order obligations, cost factors played a role as the price of the EV is still on the higher side as the battery is imported. Toshihiro Suzuki said the Gujarat facility, which serves clients in India and world markets, will soon become one of the world’s largest car manufacturing centers, with a planned capacity of 10 Lakh units. He further said: “We have chosen this facility to manufacture the E Vitara, our first Bev, and make it a global production center for this model. We will export this” Made-in-India Bev “to more than 100 countries, including Japan and Europe.” The company’s second major milestone is the ‘beginning of the production of India’s first lithium -ion battery and cell with localization of electrode level, used in our hybrid vehicles’, Suzuki added. It is manufactured here at the Toshiba Denso Suzuki plant, he added. “With only raw materials and some semiconductor parts of Japan, it is a great greeting for Atmanirbhar Bharat. We will use a multi-Power train strategy, including electric, strong hybrid, ethanol flex fuel and compressed biogas, to achieve carbon neutrality and climate change goals,” Suzuki noted.
