Aston Martin, the UK-based luxury and sports car maker, marked its entry into India today with the launch of its entire range. This includes the V8 Vantage Coupe, V8 Vantage Roadster, V12 Vantage, DB9 Coupe, DB9 Volante, V8 Vantage S, Virage and the four door sports car Rapide. The range starts from Rs 1.35 crore and goes up to Rs 20 crore.
At Rs 20 crore, the One-77 model is the most expensive in the company’s line-up presently. Aston will make only 77 units of the car, of which buyers have already booked 72. Senior executives stated negotiations with a few prospective Indian buyers are happening and hopes to close a deal soon. More than a dozen cars were booked by Indian customers even before the official launch. The company hopes to sell at least 30 units in the first year. Customers will have to wait anywhere between 2 weeks to two months to get delivery.The company would launch a small city car in India next year, expected to be the most expensive small car ever in the country.
