The German luxury car manufacturer is on a roll worldwide, and now it has organized a unique drive experience for its customers across various cities in India. The recession doesn’t seem to have infected Audi in its Western European market.

Mercedes is the dominating luxury brand in India and arguably, it has tremendous brand value. BMW came much later to India but was successful in making its foot strong here. The third German brand to make it to the shore is Audi, and following the success of its German competitors, it seems pretty confident to try new marketing strategy.
