Audi aims to sell 1200 cars in India this year

German auto giant Audi has said that they are aiming to sell 1200 cars in the Indian market this year.

The company is closing in on launching the locally assembled A4 model in the market.

Audi India MD Benoit Tiers said in a statement: “We are expecting to sell 1,200 of our cars in the Indian market in 2008 compared to 350 cars sold last year on the back of growing demand for luxury cars in the market.”

The company sold 220 units in the first three months of the year registering an 80 per cent growth compared to previous year.

Tiers added: “The sale of total luxury cars in India during first two months of this year posted 176 per cent growth, while the car industry as a whole posted just 9 per cent growth, which shows the demand for luxury cars is growing at a tremendous pace.”

Audi India is also planning to bring their Q5 model here in India in the future.
