Manesar : Maruti's New Home

Yeah! It is true. Maruti Production to Shift Partly from Gurgaon to Manesar. Maruti is planning to shift some of its production capacity from Gurgaon to its Manesar plant. The whole process will be carried out in a phased manner. However, the company did not indicate production of which models will be shifted to the new production unit. The Gurgaon plant will be gradually changed to a base for engine assembly and machining, while automobile assembly will be integrated at Manesar plant.

Currently, Maruti Omni, Versa, M800 and Gypsy are being manufactured at the Gurgaon plant. There are total three plants in Gurgaon with a total production capacity of 6.2 lakh units. Together they produce other models as well viz., Alto, Wagon R, Estilo and Ritz. Manesar unit manufactures A-Star, SX4, Swift and Swift Dzire models.

The company decided to shift the production from Gurgaon to Manesar during MSI’s annual general meeting when Suzuki Motor Corp’s chairman and the CEO were in India to attend the AGM. The Gurgaon plant was built in early 1970s and was refurbished before Maruti began its production in 1983 at this plant.

Grab Discount Offers in June from Car Manufacturers in India

June seems to be the season of heavy discounts for Indian car buyers. Auto manufacturers are offering varying discounts across all their models to lure the Indian customers. May-June this year beat the December discounts already. Car companies are offering discounts starting from Rs. 5000 to up to Rs. 1 lakh on their cars in India.

Maruti Suzuki India Limited is offering discounts on nearly all the cars in its product portfolio. It is offering discount of Rs. 13,000 on Omni and Maruti 800, 35,000 on WagonR, 19,000 on Alto, 37,000 on Zen Estilo and 25,000 on SX4. The new model Maruti A-Star is also cheaper by Rs. 24,000 this month. However, latest and popular models do not have such attractive discount packages. Maruti Swift is available at a discount of Rs. 5000 only and there is no discount on the latest model Maruti Ritz.

I know all you purchasers wonders that how it happens? But there is no any tact or magic. It is the decision of car manufacturers that hefty price discounts on one particular car model can help give focus on that model and increase sales for a brief period of time. So, I think it is a good time to buy your beloved car at home.

Other auto makers are also offering discounts ranging from Rs. 10,000 to up to one lakh on their cars. General Motors, Ford India and Tata Motors have their cars lined up with various discounts across their product portfolio. Hyundai is already offering an exchange program to its customers to upgrade their cars to a bigger car without changing the EMI. “Monsoon always sees some discounting but this time the cuts are steeper,” said Rajiv Dube, president-passenger car division, Tata Motors.

So even before the monsoon in India, its already raining discounts in the auto sector. With additional excise duty cut benefits, cars couldn’t have been cheaper before.

Maruti Suzuki Launches Ritz in Orissa

Now it is possible to buy one more variants from Maruti Suzuki called "Ritz" in India. Yeah! It is the dream of Orissa people comes true to have a excellent Maruti Suzuki Vehicle "Ritz" to park at their porch.

Maruti Suzuki India Limited, the passenger car leader in the domestic market, established its new model Ritz in the Orissa market. The latest passenger car model from the Maruti stable having both petrol and diesel variants was rolled out simultaneously in Berhampur, Rourkela and Sambalpur.

No doubt Maruti Suzuki can get a good response from Orissa people and why not as name implies to prove its stability, trust, cost effectiveness and fuel efficient features makes an impact from many years to the heart of Indian people.

I fascinates about model Ritz because of its brand new 1.2 litre K12M petrol engine and 1.3 DDiS diesel power-plant, each offering optimum performance and fuel efficiency. Apart from this, the transmission system has been optimized for the Ritz to match the Indian driving habits.

Now nothing is to be remained to say that it will never click the market. It is only the trust and faith of technology that everyone wish to buy it.

Maruti Suzuki's New Launch The Ritz - BS-IV Emission Norms

As Maruti Suzuki, India’s leading car manufacturer, gears up for the set up of its Ritz hatchback, its second launch in less than six months, other companies are also gearing up to gainsay the make with their flashy and stylish hatchbacks.

The premium compact car segment, classified as above Rs 4.5 lakh, will be abuzz over the next year with launches expected from almost all other car makers — Hyundai Motors, Honda Siel Cars (HSCI), Toyota Kirloskar, Fiat Auto, Volkswagen India and Ford India — too.

The Ritz, which Maruti will launch on Friday, will have a new K12M, 1.2 litre petrol engine, exacted to be more fuel effective while being low on discharge. It will also be the first car on Indian roads to have an engine that is compliant with the BS-IV emission norms. It will be Maruti’s eighth small car and is awaited to be priced at about Rs 4.5-5 lakh, although the company has been closelipped on this.

Honda will follow with the launch of the Jazz around June. Because Jazz shares its platform with its stylish but bigger cousin, the City, company officials say it will be priced just a bit below the latter, making it India’s most expensive hatchback.

Jnaneswar Sen, senior V-P (marketing), HSCI, replied “In international markets, the Honda Jazz is priced more than the Honda City. However, due to the benefit of excise duty structure in India, expect the Jazz to be priced slightly lower than the City.” Smaller cars attract less duty in India. The City carries a price tag of Rs 8.25 lakh (ex-showroom, Mumbai).

Italian car maker Fiat will proceed with the introduction of the much-awaited Grande Punto a few weeks later. This car will be Fiat’s second offering in the compact segment, after the Palio, but will be priced higher than it. Rajeev Kapoor, president and CEO, Fiat India Automobiles, said, “The B+ (premium compact) segment is growing at a much faster rate than others. This segment will see the most action and we as a company see great opportunity there. We want to become a volume player with this car.”

This segment will be further explored by Hyundai Motors India (HMIL) when it launches the diesel version of the i20 by the end of the year. The company already has three compact cars — Santro, i10 and the Getz — in the market. HMIL had initially planned to sell about 1,000 units of the i20 in India every month but the demand has surged to almost double that. Hyundai is expecting a further increase in demand with the introduction of a diesel engine.

Market sources say German carmaker Volkswagen is planning to advance the launch of the Polo hatchback to the end of this calendar year from the earlier announced date of early 2010. Though the company’s dealers are not informed about the likely price tag, the car is planned to meet a scheduled launch of December 2009, they say. However, there was no confirmation from the company.

Ford Motor Company of the US will also bring its hatchback to India in early 2010. The vehicle, which is expected to be an upper-B segment car, will be pitted against the models of Maruti, Hyundai and Tata Motors with high localisation content. The compact car will come in both petrol and diesel options.

Experts say the increased focus by car makers on the premium compact segment was expected as the transition to small but premium cars has already started in most developed auto markets.
