The new 800-acre widespread production facility is being set up in Kharkhoda, District Sonipat of Haryana. Currently, Maruti operates two production plants from Haryana itself. Both of these plants are within 100 km of diameter, adding to the easy supply of parts and vehicles. Also, the majority of the vendors for Maruti are within this diameter.
The combined production capacity of Gurgaon & Manesar-based plants stands at 1.5 million vehicles per annum. This capacity is falling short as the demand is consistently rising for Maruti's products. At the moment, Maruti is due to clear a backlog of 3.5 lakh vehicles. The numbers are adding to this day by day. With its new production facility, the company might be able to bring this number down. Maruti claims that this third car plant will help exceed the production limit as it can solely produce 2.5 lakh cars per annum.
Maruti is currently struggling to meet the customer demands as most of the cars booked are CNG. Due to increasing fuel prices, CNG cars are in a lot of demand. Maruti's CNG cars are well known to be pocket-friendly and hence a lot of demand is incoming. To meet this demand and to supply the cars within claimed time; this plant will help a lot as per the company.
Maruti also has a production facility set up in Gujarat which is primarily owned by Suzuki Motor Corporation. This facility is also being used to fill up the increasing demand. As per the company, about 40 percent of backlog demand is for the CNG cars which are also deemed to increase rapidly now. The consistent rise in fuel prices has led to this rise in demand.

The total investment cost stands at Rs 11,000 crore and the facility will lie on the HSIIDC (Haryana State Industrial and Infrastructure Development Corporation Limited) land. This will also help increase the employment in Haryana as well as increase the production capacity of Maruti cars. Also new cars like the 2022 Maruti Suzuki Alto 800, and 2022 Maruti Suzuki Brezza; are expected to launch soon in India. With their launch, this demand will shoot towards the sky, and hence the new production plant will come in handy.
