Thoughts On The Maruti Suzuki S-Presso Launch In India
Maruti Suzuki is facing its worst ever sales decline in the Indian market, dropping by over 30% last month. With the launch of the S-Presso, the company hopes to end their consistent declining sales and record a positive growth in India. The car has also been launched during the festive season, which should further boost sales of the S-Presso in India.
