Audi sales jump 19.5%

The four top performing models were the Audi A8 L, A6, Q7 and Q5, showing that the demand for both premium sedans and sport utility vehicles remains strong in the UAE.

In line with its growth, Al Nabooda Automobiles is investing heavily in sales and service capacity. While 2012 was particularly significant for the dealer with the opening of the world’s largest Audi new car showroom on Dubai’s Sheikh Zayed Road, 2013 will see a further expansion.

Combined sales and service facilities will open in Fujairah in the first quarter and in Sharjah towards the end of 2013. Construction on a new 60 work-bay service facility for Dubai will also start this year.

“2012 will go down in history as one of the most successful years for Al Nabooda Automobiles,” said Ali Al Nabooda, general manager for Audi at Al Nabooda Automobiles.

“We opened our Dh118 million showroom to provide the very best platform upon which to display our fleet of cars, and our commitment to our customers is already paying off as we record our most successful year in sales yet.”

“The appetite for German-engineered premium cars is very healthy in our market and I know that our team will continue to work hard to create new milestones throughout 2013. The opening of the new showrooms in Sharjah and Fujairah this year will bring us closer to more of our customers... and provide them with improved customer service.”
