      Since its inception in 1983, the country’s largest car manufacturer Maruti Suzuki has crossed a production milestone of over two crore units. The company has managed to accomplish this impressive feat in just about 34 years and five months. Currently, Maruti Suzuki holds over 50 per cent of the market share. A bright red Swift hatchback was rolled out as the 20 millionth car, produced at the company’s Sanand facility in Gujarat.

      Some of the major contributors to these impressive sales numbers have been the Alto with 3.17 million units, Maruti 800 with 2.91 million units, Wagon R at 2.13 million units and the Omni with 1.94 million sales. Among the newer generation models, cars like Swift, Dzire, Baleno and the Vitara Brezza have been considerable contributors to overall sales.

      Maruti Suzuki had crossed the first million milestone way back in 1994 and went on to sell four million more cars by the end of the next decade. By 2011, the company had reached the 10 million milestone and today in 2018 has crossed the 20 million production milestone in India.
