The 125 sq m sales area located at the Sheikh Zayed Road showroom of the Mercedes-Benz general distributor for Dubai and the Nothern Emirates, was officially opened by Dr Anwar Gargash, Richard Barber, General Manager, Gargash Enterprises, Domingos Piedade, Member of the Mercedes-AMG Board and Nicholas Speeks, President and CEO of DaimlerChrysler Middle East.
'This new sales area is an opportunity to maximise the sales potential for the expanding range of Mercedes-AMG vehicles,' said Barber. 'Mercedes-AMG has an aura that goes way beyond the price tag. An aura that its engines are handcrafted jewels and that production is limited to make vehicles unrivalled in their segments.'
Last year, Gargash Enterprises sold 116 Mercedes-AMG vehicles but expect sales to rise to over 170 cars this year.
The company is targeting further double-digit growth in 2006 with the arrival of the ML63 AMG in the second quarter. With an outtput of 510 hp and a maximum torque of 630 Nm at 5,200 rpm, the drive unit is the world's most powerful series-produced eight-cylinder normally aspirated engine. It ensures sports car-like performance for the off-roader giving it a 0 to 100 km/h in 5.0 seconds and an electronically limited top speed of 250 km/h.
