El Chevrolet Spark ahora vendrá importado desde India
General Motors India anunció que comenzó la producción de los primeros Chevrolet Spark (llamados Beat en ese mercado) para exportar hacia la Argentina. Ahora, el citycar de GM venía importado desde Corea del Sur.
El Spark indio no tendrá diferencias con respecto al coreano. El único cambio será en el color del tablero de instrumentos. Las primeras unidades llegarán a puerto en tres meses. Seguirá teniendo un motor 1.2 de 82 caballos de potencia.
El cambio de planta de abastecimiento se debe a que las instalaciones de Corea del Sur están concentradas en la producción del Spark de nueva generación (ver fotos). Por el momento, no hay fecha oficial de lanzamiento de la nueva generación del Spark en la Argentina. En caso de arribar, no llegará antes del 2017.
Los últimos Spark coreanos en stock se comercializan en los concesionarios Chevrolet a un precio de lista de 261 mil pesos.
La planta de GM India ya viene abasteciendo con el Spark a mercados regionales como México, Chile y Uruguay, entre otros.

The Beat is produced at GM India’s state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Talegaon, Maharashtra, which has a base capacity of 130,000 vehicles. GM India began vehicle exports from India to Chile in September 2014.
“In 2016, we plan to export over 50,000 vehicles, compared with 21,000 vehicles last calendar year, reinforcing our commitment to the Indian market and our strong local supplier base. This is part of GM’s strategy to make India an export hub for global markets and will help increase capacity utilization at our Talegaon plant. We expect to identify additional export markets going forward,” Kazem said.
The Talegaon facility will become a global export hub for GM, with around 30 percent of its annual production planned for markets outside India.
