This specially curated 64-pager issue offers a review of the key events in the automotive industry in the past few days and much more.

Top story

We deep dive into the automotive landscape in India, particularly focusing on the evolving dynamics within the hatchback segment. The recent introduction of the Gen IV Swift hatchback by Maruti Suzuki amidst the SUV dominance is indeed a noteworthy move, highlighting the enduring appeal of hatchbacks in the Indian market and why some OEMs are still banking on them.

On the other hand, the juxtaposition of the rising prices of hatchbacks with the relatively stagnant income growth of entry-level car buyers paints a challenging picture for the segment. However, several OEMs are not willing to give up as they feel hatchbacks are likely to remain relevant, especially considering their role as the first step into car ownership for many Indians.
