By investing locally, we can provide our Indian customers with local and customized solutions that are designed and manufactured close to the market.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Continental has had a sales office in India for six years and supplies the five largest car manufacturers in India as well as one of the largest motorcycle manufacturers from other plants. The new plant ensures fast response times and sustained growth in the Indian market.
