Fiat opens two new outlets

Fiat has opened two new dealerships in the national capital region, Torque Motors in Gurgaon and Thrust Motors in Delhi, both headed by Harjeet Singh Chadha.

The Gurgaon showroom is spread across 5,500 sq. ft. and has a 10,040 sq. ft. workshop, whereas the Delhi outlet has a showroom space of 4,500 sq. ft. The opening of these two dealerships takes the total count of Fiat outlets to 70 across the country and seven in Delhi.

Nagesh Basavanhalli, president and MD, Fiat Chrysler India Operations, was present at the opening and hinted at a possible launch of facelifted models during the Diwali season later this year. The company has planned nine models for launch in the next three years, with four of these being Fiat models. He said "the models may not be all new, but we will soon be making a new announcement in the coming months."

Other models that the company plans include four Chrysler models and one offering from its Abarth performance arm. Fiat aims to have a total of 120 dealers by the end of the year.
