Yes we already know that petrol prices are on the rise, and sales have been hit ferociously across all segments. Within a brief period many manufacturers have started to offer all or most of their products with diesel engines. However, Volkswagen India seems to have troubles of their own which doesn’t relate to the rise in interest rates, or petrol.
The Phaeton is VW India’s most luxurious car on sale today, and it is also their lowest selling model. Sales of the Phaeton are so low that dealers have large numbers sitting around and waiting to be sold. With the introduction of the Polo and the Vento and now the upcoming Passat, the dealers need to make room available for their better selling models. There are many ways to get rid of old models and one of the most attractive offers usually involves significant price cuts, but once you hear what the VW India dealers are doing you might just find yourself visiting one of your local VW dealers very soon.
Currently the V6 280bhp Phaeton is priced at Rs. 77 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi), but now dealers are offering a phenomenal discount of Rs. 25 lakh. Yes, that’s right! Almost a 30% percent price cut has been implemented to get rid of the large stock of the Phaeton across India. The Phaeton is a good car, and the reason why its sales figures are so low is because customers prefer the more powerful BMW and more beautiful Mercedes brands over VW.
So if, you fancy a new luxury sedan then you should definitely head to VW, because what they are offering has never been heard of before and we highly doubt a mega-sale like this will ever happen again.
