Maruti Suzuki has commenced production at its newly constructed Kharkhoda plant. It is the carmaker’s third manufacturing unit in Haryana and the fourth in India.
The foundation stone for the Kharkhoda plant was laid by Prime Minister Narendra Modi in August 2022. It will have an annual production capacity of 2,50,000 units in the first phase, and once fully operational, the facility will be able to produce 1 million units per year.
Maruti Suzuki plans to expand its annual production capacity in India to 4 million units, and the Kharkhoda plant will be a key to achieving this. Together with the Suzuki Motor Gujarat, the total capacity will stand at 2.6 million units. Another greenfield facility with a capacity of 1 million units is planned.
The Maruti Suzuki Brezza will be manufactured at the new factory.

Maruti can now officially manufacture 2 lakh cars a month in India. With Brezza moving from Gurgaon plant to the new Kharkhoda plant, I guess there will be ample capacity now to ramp up Jimny's production and bring down the waiting period internationally.
Maruti Suzuki to set up third plant at Kharkhoda
Maruti Suzuki plans to set up a third plant at Kharkhoda in Haryana. The company said that its board had approved an investment of Rs 7,410 crore to expand its production capacity in India.
At present, the Kharkhoda facility can produce 2,50,000 units per annum. A second plant is currently under construction, which will double the annual production capacity.
The proposed third plant will boost the factory's annual production capacity by another 2,50,000 units. So, the Kharkhoda plant will reach a total capacity of 7,50,000 units by 2029.
Maruti Suzuki is also planning to set up a new greenfield factory that will have an annual capacity of 10,00,000 units. The location for this unit is yet to be finalized.
