When contacted, Maruti Suzuki India (MSIL) and Honda Cars India (HCIL) two of the three leading players in the strong hybrid market - expressed satisfaction with the jump in strong hybrid cars sales in India's most populous state in the past two months, while Tata Motors, India's preeminent electric car manufacturer, and Kia India indicated their disappointment.
Rahul Bharti, executive director of corporate affairs at Maruti Suzuki, welcomed the UP government's decision to "recognise the importance" of strong hybrid vehicles in achieving national goals of reducing carbon emissions, as well as curbing oil imports.
"Customers in UP have responded positively. It is good to see that the combined penetration of BEVs (battery electric vehicles) and SHEVS (strong hybrid electric vehicles) reached 4.6 per cent in UP, slightly surpassing the national average for August.
