Hyundai Motor India Ltd’s Managing Director Mr. YK Koo has revealed the plan of expanding the brand’s portfolio. He said that three models will be new segment product, while five will be full model range. These new cars and the facelifted models will incorporate loads of modern technology and driving aids.

One of the most anticipated and expected car has been the new Santro. But Hyundai ruled out launching a tallboy hatch like the popular model. Instead it will introduce a small family car in the second half of next year, which will be positioned above the Hyundai Eon entry level hatch.

Hyundai already sells crossover and SUVs like i20 Active, Creta, Tucson and Santa Fe in the market. It wants to add another sub-four metre compact SUV in its portfolio strengthening its grab in the segment. The new SUV will arrive sometime in 2019. The facelifted version of the popular Creta SUV is also on card. Another interesting fact is that, automatic transmission will be available across its entire range as per its commitment.
