Why did Honda take this decision?

Honda’s decision comes at a time when it is facing intense competition in the Asian market. Honda is facing stiff competition from local and Chinese companies.

The model is likely to be manufactured at Honda’s Tapukara plant in Rajasthan, underscoring India’s role in the company’s global manufacturing network.
