| I am not sure I agree. In terms of factors like 1) No. of people employed in automobile industry 2) No. of automobiles produced 3) Revenue generation through automobile industry is chennai ahead of other cities in india? Two of the top 3 automakers Maruti and TATA have not set up shop in chennai. So, it does not make sense at all. Pardon me for venturing into OT  .Moreover you could have called it detroit of India. What is south asia by the way? IMO it is another term to insinuate people with geography. I would rather stick with the age old term known as indian subcontinent. And Detroit is also in deep trouble, with two bankruptcies. |

Remind me where did I say that NCR is the detroit or having most companies etc etc... I added that list because i found it and i thought it may be of interest to other members. And my hunch is that Pune area is having highest concentration of automobile manufacturer not just by number of companies but also by their turnover and sales. And if this was some competition, then no matter which area or city is doing better I will always win as I am Indian before anything.   Last edited by anmol2k4 : 24th October 2009 at 21:10. | |

I am sorry but NCR is a combination of Gurgaon, New Delhi, Ghaziabad and Faridabad and does not count for a single city (hence the term National Capital REGION), whereas Chennai, Sriperumbudur, Oragadam and all the others mentioned above are all part of the Chennai Metropolian Area alone. Hence 30% of the Auto Industry and 35% of the parts Industry is located ONLY in Chennai- whereas, even if you take Pune-Mumbai region, it is only that both the REGION's put together are a source of only 27% of India's Auto Industry (Where Tata is located gshanky) and Maruti Udyog has its plant in Manesar (so gshanky you can ask a question why Mumbai and Manesar don't have the other two major auto giants in their regions- hence that question remains invalid). And just to clear ALL your doubts on what South Asia means- it is the region that includes the Indian Subcontinent and its neighbouring countries- Pakistan, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Bangaladesh, Bhutan. Please brush up you geography before scoffing at facts. And yes, Chennai is the Detroit of South Asia, notwithstanding the fact that the Michigan Detroit is in trouble right now (actually it has already been bailed out). You all agree that however much Detroit is in trouble, it retains its old vigour of being the worlds most industrialised belts in car manufacturing and Chennai singularly does the job in South Asia- which is a big feat. I am merely pointing to you all a fact and you all can help by expanding the same not criticising. Please Google Search if you had more doubts. Mr. Nandan I hope your doubts are cleared, and thanks Anachronix. Aditya, Detroit of South Asia | ||||

| IMO terming Chennai as the auto hub is little subjective but I would agree that it is a major player in automobiles Quote:
Bridgestone J-K Tyres Bharat Forge Source- TN autoville: Michelin MoU in formalisation stage- Automobiles-Auto-News By Industry-News-The Economic Times And one more plant I would have preferred seeing in the list- Now defunct Standard Motors that was in Vandalur | |

I will end this discussion here. I never claimed that NCR was the biggest hub but did make that claim for Pune(And no I am not from Maharashtra). | ||

I agree that Chennai and it's surrounding has got a good number of Auto Plants and quite a few are in the making. But as on date other than Hyundai there's no big volume player at all. Like I said earlier, in a few years definetly yes with the Figo and Nissan's small car. This "Detroit of South Asia" is a marketing gimmick of some political party I guess. Don't get carried away by it pls. After all we know what the Indian sub-continent is and what South Asia is. Supply mobile phones? What does that have to do with Detroit? P.S: HM-Mitsu factory is in Thiruvallur (Out of Chennai) and not in Alandur (In Chennai). Nevermind it doesn't matter with the kind of volumes they generate.
