Suzuki targets India’s ‘next billion’ population mass as future growth catalysts

As part of this vision, the company is working towards supporting entrepreneurs in rural areas and creating new businesses.

Suzuki is targeting India’s next billion people without mobility access by backing rural entrepreneurs through Next Bharat Ventures and its two impact funds.

Suzuki is expanding its compressed biogas (CBG) business in India, with three plants operational as of August 2026, supporting rural incomes and reducing dependence on imported fuels.

India’s production capacity is set to reach 2.9 million vehicles by fiscal-end, with a long-term target of four million units annually and plans to expand exports to the Middle East and Africa.

Suzuki Motor Corporation perceives the“next billion” —the one billion people in India who do not yet have access to mobility—as an important segment that will drive future growth. Through this population mass, it will aim to achieve both the resolution of social issues and sustainable growth, the Japanese automaker has stated in its Integrated Report 2026. Over the last four decades since it entered India, Suzuki has “tried to to make a difference” in the lives of about 400 million people through its mobility business. With the next one billion, it is keen on going beyond traditional mobility and embrace a vision of co-development and co-creation. Advt
