Maruti Suzuki aims to bring hopes for the customers at a time when the auto industry has been affected by the economic crisis due to the pandemic. Reports suggested that the carmaker had this plan being put together since a year back.
Maruti Suzuki India has partnered with the Japanese Orix Auto Infrastructure Services to put together this pilot project.
Maruti Suzuki’s main rival Hyundai Motor had brought in similar subscription model in partnership with self-drive car-sharing firm Revv.
SAIC-backed MG Motor India also offers its subscription services through a strategic tie-up with Myles, the car sharing and car subscription company from Carzonrent.
