10. Suggestions
Launching 20 or so car models sound like a grand plan, but the point to note is
that most of them are likely to be in the low-cost segment.
Maruti Suzuki is already a leader in the lower-end of the small car, also known
as the compact car or hatchback, segment.
Though they are the market leaders, in order to maintain in their position in
the long run they must focus on the premium segment or high end segment
and becomes as successful as they are in the other segment
Can focus on spare parts and car maintenance
