The new feat makes Maruti Suzuki’s Hansalpur plant India’s largest passenger vehicle manufacturing facility at a single location.
Maruti Suzuki has announced its Hansalpur manufacturing plant in Gujarat has reached an annual production capacity of one million units. The same was achieved with the start of production at the fourth plant (Plant D), which has an annual capacity of 250,000 units, taking the overall figure to one million from 750,000 units. This is the first of all Suzuki manufacturing sites globally to reach the one million capacity per annum.
The new feat makes Maruti Suzuki’s Hansalpur plant India’s largest passenger vehicle manufacturing facility at a single location. The automaker’s total manufacturing capacity now stands at 2.9 million units per year with Plant D now operational.
Speaking on the expansion, Hisashi Takeuchi, Managing Director & CEO, Maruti Suzuki India Limited, said, “Gujarat has emerged as a manufacturing and export hub for Maruti Suzuki, backed by strong infrastructure and a progressive industrial ecosystem. The start of commercial production at the fourth plant of our Hansalpur facility augments its annual production capacity to one million vehicles, making it India’s largest passenger vehicle manufacturing facility at a single location. The new line will further strengthen our ability to meet the growing demand from customers in India and overseas while advancing our ‘Make in India, Make for the World’ vision and expanding our global footprint.” He added, “Together, the Hansalpur and the upcoming Sanand facility in Gujarat will play a pivotal role in achieving our long-term ambition of producing 4 million units annually in India. These projects reflect our commitment to strengthening India’s manufacturing competitiveness, creating employment, boosting exports and contributing towards Viksit Bharat.”
The auto giant invested ₹25,288.7 crore in the Hansalpur facility, and the state-of-the-art plant produces its global models including the Fronx, Baleno, Swift, and e Vitara, making it a major export hub for the manufacturer. Maruti says nearly 47 per cent of its overall overseas shipments in FY2025-26 were made from the Hansalpur plant.
