During the launch event of the automaker’s latest model RediGo 1.0L, it has claimed to be the fastest growing car brand in FY16. The brand has sold more than 90,000 cars here in last three years and it is quite a remarkable feat.
With this growing success story, Datsun hopes to fetch more sales with the newly introduced RediGo 1.0L that has been launched at Rs. 3.57 lakh (ex-showroom, Pan India). To boost the appeal of its models, Datsun is planning to introduce more stylish design and new technology equipped cars. The brand hopes to sell around 1.25 lakh units of cars annually in the domestic market by the end of this decade.
