Indian automobile giant Mahindra & Mahindra is all set to showcase Ssangyong‘s vehicles for the first time in India during the upcoming Delhi Auto Expo in January 2012. Mahindra will introduce SsangYong’s Korando and Rexton SUVs at the show. The country’s top utility maker successfully acquired the Korean SUV maker last year.
“Post the acquisition of Ssangyong Motors, there has been a lot of interest within Indian consumers to see for themselves some of these world-class products. Keeping in mind this aspiration, Mahindra will showcase among other vehicles, both the Rexton and Korando E which are slated to be launched in India shortly,” the company said in a statement.
In November, 2010, Mahindra & Mahindra (M&M) had signed a definitive agreement with Ssangyong Motor Company (SYMC) to acquire 70 per cent stake in the ailing South Korean auto maker at a total cost of USD 463 million (about Rs 2,105 crore).
Besides, the company will also showcase an electric variant of its sedan Verito during the Auto Expo. Electric vehicle Mahindra Reva NXR will also be displayed.
Premium luxury car-maker Mercedes-Benz have also announced that it will launch its SLS AMG Roadster at the Auto Expo in January.
