Mumbai:
Audi India sold 7,391 units in the nine months to September, 15% more than in the same period last year, the company said in a statement Thursday.
“We are pleased to have consolidated our No. 1 position in the luxury car industry. We are confident that we will be the first luxury car manufacturer in the country to cross sales of 10,000 units in a calendar year," Joe King, head of Audi India, said.
Audi plans to have 34 dealerships across India by the end of the year.
Audi India started production of its Q3 sports utility vehicle at its Aurangabad plant in Maharashtra last month. The Q3 is the fifth model the carmaker is assembling in India. Audi’s current portfolio of locally assembled models include A4, A6, Q5 and Q7.
Luxury cars account for less than 1% of total car sales in the country, with 30,000 units sold in 2012.
