Ansari said the vehicle was launched in India around two years back. “This vehicle is more successful with safety features, ” he claimed. Meanwhile, auto analyst Muhammad Sabir Shaikh said Chinese and South Korean automakers have reshaped consumer preferences by shifting focus from traditional sedans and hatchbacks to SUVs and crossovers, which are increasingly seen as more stylish. “Japanese carmakers are now following the trend, adapting their lineups to meet changing customer demand, ” Shaikh said.
