Overall
Hyundai Motor forayed in India in the year 1996 and rolled out its very first Santro two years later. Hyundai Santro received unexpected response from Indian market in spite of its moderate appearance. The hatchback was initially launched as 'Hyudai Atos' in 1997 but in India it had the name Santro. Later in 2003, the South Korean auto major introduced upgraded version of Santro and called it as Hyundai Santro Xing that repeated the same success story in India. The hatchback is marketed below Hyundai i10 in India while in other major markets, it has been discontinued to make space for the former car model. The small car has to compete with Maruti Zen Estilo, Maruti Wagon R, Chevrolet Spark and Fiat Palio Stile
