Not every automobile manufacturer can succeed in India. Not just because of the native resources or manufacturing expenses but also because of the basic behavior of the Indian automobile market. It is no secret that even the best of the automobile manufacturers face highs and lows in India due to the obvious uncertainty of the customer requirement. While new segments are tough to be introduced on the Indian roads, even the best of the vehicles face their issues, when launched by unknown or relatively new brands. In the lucrative Indian automobile market, where people clearly take sides regarding certain segments, it isn’t always that an MNC comes in the country to a wide applause let alone be the game changer. Chevrolet is unquestionably one such brand. Though GM was having some issues when Chevrolet Spark was launched in India, the company received such wide amount of success that it made even the best of brands sweat. With the ever increasing customer base for its products, Chevrolet probably felt that it was the right time to launch their stylish MPV, Chevrolet Enjoy in the country. It is no surprise that the vehicle manufacturer tried to venture into the MPV segment considering it already had its share of success with hatchbacks and a decent response for its sedans.
