Hyundai said it expects to recover most of the production losses arising from the incident within the next quarter.
Hyundai Motor India on Wednesday said one of its manufacturing facilities in Chennai is expected to return to normal production levels by 22 June following disruptions caused by a fire at a supplier’s plant last week, news agency Reuters reported.
The disruption was linked to a fire at a facility operated by Mobis India, which supplies audio systems and select components to Hyundai Motor India.
