Honda to resume peak output by March 2012

Honda Seil Cars is positive about resuming its maximum output from 9000 to 10000 units by the month of March 2012. The component supply for Honda Motors was a bit disrupted by the unfortunate floods in Bangkok in 2011. These components comprised of numerous underbody parts and electronic parts that will now be imported from China and Japan. This will facilitate the firm in picking up from the pace where it left off, thereby reducing the waiting period of its cars.

 

As per the senior VP of sales and Marketing of Honda Seil Cars India, Mr. Jnaneswar Sen mentioned that now the firm has managed a substitute supply source and the company will try its level best to deliver as many cars as possible to the consumers. The cars that have maximum waiting period include Honda Brio, new Honda City and Honda Jazz.

 

Another exciting news is that Honda is planning to set-up its second production plant in Tapukara, Rajasthan once the peak output is resumed. The firm is also intensifying to localize its cars that would make the risk nil regarding the currency value and cut down the dependency on the global supply. Honda Seil Cars India has already triggered off the production of the new Honda City, whereas the deliveries of the small cars, Honda Jazz and Honda Brio will start by the mid of February 2012. According to the statistics, Honda India has 4000 bookings of Jazz, 7500 bookings of Brio and 2000 bookings of new Honda City units.The new Honda City and Honda Brio have an approximate waiting period of 4 to 8 weeks, whereas Honda Jazz has a waiting period of about 3 to 6 weeks.
