hyundai exports rise..............

Hyundai Motor India today said it has exported five lakh units of its flagship car Hyundai Santro from the country.

"The export of the Santro has reached five lakh units. From the time of its launch, this popular car has been widely appreciated for its design, technology and safety," Hyundai Motor India Ltd (HMIL) Managing Director and CEO H W Park said in a statement.
HMIL began exporting cars in 1999 when it shipped a batch of 20 Santro cars to Nepal and had exported one lakh cars across models by 2004.

The company exports its 'Made in India' Santro to more than 80 countries across continents.

"With this we gear up for next phase of growth and remain committed to bringing world class products and service to our customers," he said.

"In a little over a decade since Hyundai has been present in India it has become the leading exporter of passenger cars with a market share of 57 per cent of the total exports of passenger cars from India," the statement said.

HMIL currently exports Santro, i10, i20 and the Accent models.
