Maruti has been a household name since the early 1980s. The brand created its identity by transforming the Indian automobile sector with innovative models. Having strong supremacy in the design perspective, style quotient, or fuel efficiency, Maruti Suzuki earned respect and sales in a quick time.

Hyundai has been surprising the Indian customers, as well as, rival brands by launching uniquely designed models since then.
