Here’s how the upcoming new HM Ambassador electric car can look like: IN PICS | News

From politicians to taxi operators, the Hindustan Motors Ambassador was India’s darling back in 1970s. So much was the demand for HM Ambassador, that it held almost 75 percent market share in India. For reference, India’s biggest carmaker Maruti Suzuki holds 40% share, with more than 10 different models. However, with the arrival of modern, cheaper, and lightweight cars, the Ambassador lost its mojo and was discontinued eventually. It seems like HM Ambassador is going to have another go at the domestic market, if reports are to be believed. As per multiple reports on Times of India and HT Bangla, the company plans on expanding its operations to make electric cars, and has partnered with a French firm to officiate the partnership. While we don’t know what the modern electric HM Ambassador could look like, here’s a modern interpretation by Anmol Satpute, a graduate from MITID.
