India's largest carmaker, Maruti Suzuki Ltd, plans to introduce eight sport utility vehicle (SUV) models in the market over the next five to six years as it looks to regain 50% market share, targeting electric, hybrid, gas and biofuel vehicles.

The company will also strengthen its entry-level cars as it looks to fend off Indian and foreign rivals' bid to take market share away, Suzuki Motor Corp. chairman Toshihiro Suzuki told reporters on the sidelines of Japan Mobility Show 2025 on Wednesday. "We will be carefully bringing products and technologies across segments to fulfil the aspirations of different customers."
