Isuzu Motors India has reached a major milestone with the rollout of its one lakhth vehicle from its Sri City manufacturing facility in Andhra Pradesh. The milestone was marked by the launch of the popular Isuzu D-MAX V-Cross, a model renowned for its durability and reliability. This achievement reflects Isuzu’s commitment to the Indian market, having doubled its vehicle production in just two years.
The ceremony was attended by Dr. N. Yuvaraj, Secretary to the Government of Andhra Pradesh, along with other dignitaries including Dr. RavindraSannareddy, Founder & MD of Sri City, and Makoto Sado, Chairman of the Sri City Japanese Company Group.

The company has now produced over 14,00,000 pressed parts at the facility.
In Kolkata, Isuzu’s increasing production and distribution network reflect a growing demand for robust, reliable vehicles, with the D-MAX V-Cross gaining popularity among urban and rural customers alike. As the company strengthens its presence across India, including Kolkata, it is poised to enhance its customer base and service offerings.
