German luxury car maker Audi today reported 12.22 per cent growth in sales for November and said it has surpassed the annual sales target for 2009 within the first 11 months of the year.
The company sold 101 units during November, against 90 units during the same month last year, it said in a statement.
"With good sales in November, we have not only achieved the target we had set ourselves at the start of the year, but well exceeded it. Our increasing sales reflect the growing familiarity and wide acceptance that Audi has managed to cultivate for itself in India," Audi India Managing Director Benoit Tiers said.
The company had fixed an annual sales target of 1,500 units for 2009 and said it has achieved it by November-end.
"Audi India has continued to record strong growth all year around. In spite of the challenging market conditions, it has successfully managed to surpass the annual target of 1,500 cars," the company said.
The German firm registered a jump of 59.14 per cent in its January-November cumulative sales at 1,550 units, as against 974 units during the first 11 months of 2008.
The company currently sells a number of models in the India market including the Q7, Q5, A6, A8, A4, TT and R8i. It operates 12 dealerships across the country.
