Honda Cars India on Monday (7) said it has crossed the 20 lakh (2 million) cumulative production milestone in the country.
The company has rolled out its 2 millionth unit, a Honda City sedan, from its Tapukara (Rajasthan) based manufacturing plant.
The automaker began production operations in December 1997 and has so far cumulatively invested over Rs 10,000 crore (£1.06 billion) since setting up its operations in India.
“The historic milestone of 2 Million Production roll out in India is a testimony to Honda’s commitment to the ‘Make in India’ initiative for the last 25 years,” Honda Cars India president & CEO Takuya Tsumura said in a statement.
Besides, selling in the domestic market, the company also exports City and Amaze sedans to over 15 markets across the globe.
Honda Cars India’s Tapukara-based plant has an installed production capacity of 180,000 vehicles per year.
