Hyundai Alcazar premium SUV launch
Hyundai has in recent months revised its business approach, and strives dominate UV segments. What was once Maruti’s stronghold by virtue of its wide range of vehicles across UV segments is now a an area of contention for HMIL. The auto manufacturer has strategised its move well and locked horns with MSIL at the top of UV segment sales. Not only this. Hyundai also continues to outline its UV prowess ad future progress.
Hyundai Alcazar was announced last week as HMIL’s next UV launch. A 7 seater SUV is what it is. And the brand is adamant about it being a premium vehicle. This in itself is an advantage just in case MSIL was to compete in the segment. While the leading automaker dominates sales volumes by thousands, it isn’t offering premium.
