Hyundai Motors Nigeria Limited has said it started phased delivery of low-priced made-in-Nigeria cars that were assembled at the company’s plant in Lagos to its provisional dealers nationwide last week. Stallion Group, owners of the multi-vehicle plant, produced made-in-Nigeria Nissan range of vehicles last April. Chairman of Stallion Group, Mr. Sunil Vaswani, said the new vehicles “will be affordably priced in order to free Nigerians from the stranglehold of wholesale vehicle importers.” Company officials said some of the vehicles delivered in the passenger car segment are; Hyundai i10, Grand, Elantra and iX35 SUV. Those in the light commercial vehicle segment are; the 10-ton HD160; seven-ton HD 120; five-ton HD78 and three-ton HD65 and in the commuter bus category are; 28+1 seater Hyundai County bus and 30-seater Stallion County. Hyundai Motors Nigeria has hitherto announced starting price of between N1.5m and N1.9m for the i10 and Grand models respectively, having announced in July it was commencing phased production of affordably priced Hyundai models. Hyundai Motors Nigeria plant Managing Director, Tokunbo Aromolaran said the vehicles were built to the world’s highest automotive operating standard – ISO/TS 16949.
