In an exclusive interview yesterday, DSK Benelli have shared their future plans with us. The Benelli range of motorcycles will be launch in India in a couple of weeks and dealerships are currently being put in place.
The first dealership to be functional is expected to be in Pune. Located at Wakdewadi, next to the Jaguar showroom, this facility in Pune will probably be only a sales outlet with the service facility being located elsewhere.
In total, Benelli will have 7 dealerships at the time of launch including locations such as Pune, Mumbai, Delhi, Hyderabad, Kolkata, Chennai and Bangalore.
Although bookings for the bikes will open up in December 2014, soon after the official launch; deliveries are expected to commence only in January 2015. This is being done to protect the customer from loosing too much on calendar-year change depreciation.
By the end of 2015, Benelli is targeting over 20 sales and service outlets across India.
