Spread over an area of 6,500 sq. ft, the architecture is based on the unique Audi Terminal concept with a typical black curve inside the showroom and the honeycomb aluminium facade on the exterior. With a display that can accommodate eight Audi cars, the showroom will display the entire model range of cars available in India.

In addition to this, the showroom will also house an Audi Shop and the Audi Exclusive Elements, where customers can order customised products and purchase a variety of Audi branded merchandise.
