Hyundai Motor India has announced it will enhance the
supply of its diesel variants of hatchback i20 and sedan Verna to
ease the waiting period for the two models.
According to the company, the
supply of both the diesel variants will go up by almost 50 per cent from the existing 7,000 units per month to 10,500 units per month.
"We expect the waiting period for the diesel Verna to drop from six months to two to three months and for the new iGen i20 to about a month," said Arvind Saxena, director, marketing and sales, Hyundai Motor India.
"The decision to increase supply of diesel cars follows the Union Budget which left the tax structure on passenger cars untouched," the company said in its statement on Monday.
Hyundai Motor said it has been able to enhance supply by ramping up diesel engine imports from south Korea.
In 2011 the company's domestic sales grew by 4.8 per cent at 373,709 units from 356,717 units in 2010.
