India's second largest car manufacturer Hyundai Motor India Ltd today said it would soon launch a car that would be smaller than its Santro model.

"We are working on a car smaller than our Santro but it would take some time before it hits the market," Hyundai Motor India (HMIL) Senior Vice-President (Marketing and Sales) Arvind Saxena told reporters on the sidelines of a function here.

The car should be out by 2011 and may be it is due to the fact that there are several small cars going to be in Indian market after the launch much awaited TATA Nano. Or may be the Nano is the sole reason for Hyundai to go for smaller car.

It is to be noted that their most successful model in India is santro and which also their smallest car for India on sale.
