We will hopefully launch Phantom Coupe in the first week of November. We have got orders for this model from India.
-Dr. Matthew J. Bennet (GM, South & East Asia Pacific, Rolls-Royce Motors Cars Ltd) told.
The Phantom is the more popular car from the Rolls Royce. According to Mr. Graeme Grieve (Director, Sales & Marketing, Rolls Royce), India is the essential market for the company as it has the long history in country and it gives great growth opportunities for them.
It made its attack once again in an Indian market after almost 50-years and sold 12-units yearly in a country. This year it is planning to sell 16-20 units and about 70 units by 2013.
We do not believe in going for volumes. Rolls Royce produces cars only in limited numbers and in most markets, we enjoy a waiting against our models.
- Mr. Grieve added.
According to the company, India is set to develop into single major market in the Asia Pacific region in coming 5-years.
