      Hyundai Motor India has rolled out its 10 millionth car from its manufacturing facility situated near Chennai, Tamil Nadu. The model to mark the landmark achievement was the newly launched Alcazar SUV. The carmaker also marks its 25 years in the Indian automotive industry with over 2.5 lakh employment generated in the state of Tamil Nadu.

      Along with this noteworthy accomplishment, Hyundai has also announced several community-centric initiatives in the state that include the donation of five lakh ventilators to government hospitals, construction of Child Care Centre and community hall at Katrambakkam village respectively benefitting 500 people and 1,500 people annually, and assistance to a self-help group for setting up a mobile catering service at VallakottaiVillage near Sriperumbudur. 

      Commencing its manufacturing operations in India in 1998, the plant currently has a production capacity of 7.5 lakh units annually. The facility is equipped with over 650 fourth-generation robots and utilises artificial intelligence for car manufacturing.

      The company has also achieved a significant milestone in exports with over three million vehicles sent to global markets in early 2020. Until now, over two lakh units of the Venue and the Creta SUV have been shipped to international markets such as Mexico, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, Nepal, and Chile. The exports to Nepal are being carried out through railways from Walajabad Railway Hub near Irungattukottai near Chennai.

      Commenting on the occasion of the fastest 10 millionth car roll out, S S Kim, MD & CEO, Hyundai Motor India Ltd., said, “This historic milestone of the 10 millionth car roll-out is a testimony of Hyundai’s commitment towards the Make-in-India initiative.
