The Indian arm of Japanese auto maker Honda Cars is eyeing a greater presence in the volume segment in India and plans to add more diesel products to its portfolio. The recently launched Amaze, which now accounts for 60 per cent of its total sales, currently has a three-five month waiting period Shigeru Yamazaki, Senior Vice-President and Director, Sales and Marketing said, adding that the company plans to introduce assembly in a third shift at its Greater Noida facility from November. At present, Honda Cars India operates only in 10 per cent of the market. “We will add more diesel models to our portfolio, and expand our operating universe,” Yamakazi said. In the pipeline are three new and refreshed models – the revamped Jazz and City as well as a new crossover vehicle in both petrol and diesel variants.
