Auto maker Mahindra & Mahindrais looking to make the United States one of the largest export markets once it starts selling its vehicles there next year.
The company, which exported 9,000 units of Sports Utility Vehicles (SUVs) and pick-ups across the globe last fiscal, is looking to better its performance this year.
"We will start exporting our Scorpio platform vehicle in the US markets by February-March 2010. We plan to start with around 2,000 vehicles and hope that the US will be our biggest export market soon," M&M Executive Vice-President (International Operations Automotive sector) P N Shah told reporters on the sidelines of SIAM annual conference here.
He said the company will start its US exports with pick-ups and then move to SUVs. The company has sold 9,000 units in the international markets in 2008-09 and hopes to improve the number this fiscal.
