Hyundai I-Series

After reveling in the success of its i10 car, Hyundai is back to 'work' again. The South Korea-based automobile manufacturer is all planning to launch its entire range of i-series cars in India. The mind-blowing achievement of Hyundai's i10 model in India has encouraged the company to launch its i20 model in October - December 2008. Following soon after, will be the launch of Hyundai i30 and Hyundai i40, in the coming years.
As per HS Lheem, Managing Director and CEO - Hyundai Motors, the company has plans of bringing the entire portfolio of the new i-series cars to India. Hyundai expects i30 and i4, its premium cars in the 'i-series', to have a significant potential in the country, considering the fast growing Indian market for luxury cars. Apart from releasing the new models, Hyundai will also strengthen the i10 portfolio, with a new engine and an automatic transmission
Presently, Hyundai counts amongst the largest car manufacturers in India as well as the second largest importer of cars, next only to Maruti Suzuki. The company is now formulating plans to gear its operations in the country, with the aim of becoming its largest car manufacturer. Amongst the numerous steps taken by it, in this regard, is making India its manufacturing and exports hub, for its small cars. Let us hope that Hyundai manages to realize its aim and woo Indian audience with its new range.
