Marketing strategy in India
But, these are minor changes to guarantee that products are running without any fault.• For e.g.: BMW has minor adaptations for
the Indian road and weather conditions. These include- a higher suspension as ground clearance in India is low, and different intake filters as the air in the country is more polluted.
Marketing strategy in India
• BMW’s essence has been, is and will always be ‘driving pleasure’
• An unwritten law at BMW is that everyone who comes to work at the company has to love driving and has to know that driving pleasure is what the company is all about. Everyone in engineering, development, purchasing, controlling and manufacturing has to be focused on driving performance.
• The BMW identity is tied to the experience of driving the machine. Details like the feeling of the steering wheel, instrument panel lighting, the suspension and reaction of the engine ensure each BMW feels the same as the last. BMW believes strongly in the importance of product consistency.
