“We have a bouquet of compact cars like the Mazda 2 and sedans that are suited for the bulk of Indian customers who prefer small and fuel efficient vehicles.

All depends on the kind of cars that are viable for the Indian market,” Mr. Takashi Yamanouchi, President and CEO, Mazda Motor Corporation, said.
