Affluent car buyers in Andhra Pradesh have reason to rejoice as luxury carmaker Rolls-Royce has appointed Kun Motoren Private Limited as its authorised dealer in Hyderabad. This is the third dealership in the country, after Mumbai and Delhi, as part of Rolls-Royce’s India expansion plans. The company will set up an all-new showroom that will be operational by the middle of 2012. Kun Motoren Limited has been in Hyderabad for over a decade now and also has a BMW dealership under its belt.
This isn’t the first major connection that the luxury carmaker has had with the city of Hyderabad though. The Nizam of Hyderabad, Mir Osman Khan Siddiqi Asaf Jah VII, who ruled the city until Independence, reportedly purchased over 50 Rolls-Royce motor cars in his lifetime.
Herfried Hasenoehrl, Head of Business Development, India, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars, added, “We have made no secret of our ambitions for a region central to the rich heritage of the brand. Kun has the proven track record in automotive retailing that we seek in all our dealership partners. This experience, combined with their reputation in the local marketplace, makes them the perfect partner for Rolls-Royce Motor Cars in Hyderabad.”
The Rolls-Royce Ghost Extended Wheelbase will also be making its debut in Andhra Pradesh.
