December 1983 heralded a revolution in the Indian car industry. Maruti collaborated with Suzuki of Japan to produce the first affordable car for the average Indian. At this time, the Indian car market had stagnated at a volume of 30,000 to 40,000 cars for the decade ending 1983. This was from where Maruti took over.
