    The two companies however understand that their cars are bound to compete against each other and also with other competitive brands in the international market. Officials from both companies are remaining tight lipped on any such development. Maruti Suzuki refused to comment and Volkswagen officials said that it indeed is too early to comment on  any such deal.

    Experts from the industry suggest that if the technologies from both the companies combine that would help cars being exported to the global markets. The main areas which would be used in collaboration and knowledge share are product development, design, implementation and manufacturing.
