Mitsubishi Outlander coming to India this year
Japanese car major Mitsubishi Motors has announced their plans to launch their SUV model Outlander in the Indian market later this year.
The company has clarified that they have no plans to enter the Indian compact car market. Rivals like Nissan, Renault, Honda and Toyota have announced their plans to develop products to cater to this segment.
Kazyuki Kambayashi, general manager (Asia and ASEAN) of Mitsubishi spoke about their Indian plans while launching their Montero in India: ‘We are not planning to launch any small car in India for the time being. But later this year we will launch Outlander, which will be our fifth car in India’.
He further said: ‘We are open to ideas as the small car market is booming in India and we are still studying it. But we want to strengthen our hold in the SUV segment as Pajero and Montero are still our best selling vehicles worldwide’.
He also said that the company is now focusing its attention on developing electric cars to take on Honda and Toyota which dominates the hybrid auto market currently.
They might start by integrating the technology into their small car Colt that was launched two years back in Japan.
Kambayashi said: ‘We may trying to launch an electric version of Colt in Japan but it is a tough job as charging the car will be a big problem. So if we are successful we may also think of launching the product in India, as it is the booming market for small cars’.
