Jaguar Land Rover planning to open a dealership in Pune by December

The premium British marquee Jaguar Land Rover owned by India’s Tata group will open its Pune dealership by early December, according to a report in The Economic Times. The report stated that the Ace Cars showroom, located close to the another luxury car brand dealership, BMW, as well as to other car showrooms in central Pune, will have the space to display around 12 cars of both brands, Jaguar and Land Rover.

The report stated that local buyers of these premium brands said that the base level price of a Jaguar, of around Rs. 55-56 lakh, brings it within reach of a larger market and is an alternative to the Mercedes E-Class or the BMW 5 Series sedan. The report quoted Aditya Deshpande, a 25-year old real estate developer as saying "There are currently about 30 Jags and around 40 Land and Range Rovers in Pune. I think with a dealership opening in the city, this number could easily double in a year's time."Vcommindia News
