India's largest carmaker Maruti Suzuki India Limited on Monday announced the starting of commercial production at the second plant of its Kharkhoda manufacturing facility in the state of Haryana. This second plant has an annual production capacity of 2.5 lakh cars, taking the total capacity at Kharkhoda to 5 lakh units. Maruti Suzuki’s overall annual production capacity across its facilities in Gurugram, Manesar and Kharkhoda in Haryana and Hansalpur in Gujarat is now 26.5 lakh units.
Once fully operational, the Kharkhoda manufacturing unit will be among Suzuki’s largest four-wheeler manufacturing locations with capacity to produce 1 million vehicles per annum.
Maruti Suzuki had earlier indicated its plan to add 5 lakh units of capacity in FY 2026–27, and the development is in line with this plan.
The company currently manufactures the compact SUV Brezza and mid-SUV Victoris at the facility, it said.
The foundation stone of the Kharkhoda facility was laid by the Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi in August 2022.
