A high-profile ceremony yesterday marked #ds Automobiles official launch in #iran, with 200 VIPs and potential #ds customers attending the milestone #event.
The launch of the brand in #iran follows the October announcement of a deal between #ds and ARIAN Group to operate and oversee the automotive brand’s first venture into the Middle East.
In attendance at the #event was Yves Bonnefont, CEO of the #ds brand, Daryoush Biria, president of ARIAN Group and His Excellency Bruno Foucher, the French Ambassador in Tehran.
"DS brand is undergoing a major step in its international development. #iran is a key country for us and contributes to our ambition of radiating the French luxury know-how in automobile,” said Yves Bonnefont. “The experience of our partner Arian Group is a major asset for success."
Daryoush Biria, President of ARIAN Group, commented, "The #ds brand is synonymous with design, technology, refinement and French elegance. We are delighted to be the exclusive distributor of #ds brand in #iran and I do not doubt that Iranian customers will be thrilled by these great cars."
Media, VIPs and potential customers attended the #event at the newly opened #ds STORE, which is located in the northern districts of the city on one of the most attractive avenues, the Andarzgou Boulevard.
In a space of 275 m2, customers can now immerse themselves in the world of #ds. A modern facade, sleek design, lacquered furniture, plasma screens, photos depicting Paris, fashion, luxury and design, create an elegant and luxurious atmosphere. The #ds models on display are turned towards the entrance to catch the eye of visitors upon arrival.
DS 5, the flagship of the brand, and #ds 6, the brand’s powerful and elegant SUV, were launched at the showroom’s opening. The two models are from the ‘Sport Chic’ range, the most prestigious trim with powerful and efficient engines as well as 6-speed automatic gearboxes. All the #ds brand’s refinement and attention to detail are featured; all models have premium Nappa leather or semi-aniline watchstrap leather seats, exclusive to #ds Automobiles, and full leather dashboards.
The range will be expanded during 2016 with the arrival of #ds 5LS, the sedan and other models.
