Once again, the car industry has proved its connection with a sports event! BMW and Mercedes have plans to roll out a number of luxurious limousines on Delhi roads by 2010. Delhities, don’t jump with joy, these top-notch limousines are not for you, for tourists.
Almost 150 cars are to be rolled out in the form of taxis. The launch is aimed at providing world class travel experience to tourists from across the world during the Common wealth Games. With these high-end cars, the government of India desires to greet visitors with a brand new fleet of cars.
Can you guess how much the government is investing to roll out these cars? Nearly about Rs 200 crore!
Recently, Honda also showed its interest in Indian sports by gifting Honda Accord to the winner of the game.
What do you think? Is this a branding move by car manufacturers? Or an initiative made by the government? Whatever it is, this move has proved the deep association of car industry and sports industry in the country.

Awesome! Delhi will be mini Paris I suppose. Government is working on the infrastructure and planning to bring high end tax-cabs to the city. 2010 will definitely see a new dawn in Delhi.
Ya, I heard that long time, almost a year back. It’s good to know that the government is now awake and remembers the promises made. Since the time, world games have been finalized to take place in India’s capital, the government is taking initiatives to transform the complete infrastructure in Delhi. Luxurious limousines on Delhi roads – I guess will be amazing.
Wonderful to hear. And it is used for tourist purpose. Great but why are it not for the other people. I think they need to think about it. Hope to see it soon.
