Citroen network to add five new centres in 2011, two of which in Bucharest

Car sales will revolve around 105,000 units in 2011, and light commercial utility vehicle sales will reach 15,000 units, according to Didier Gerard, head of Citroen Romania , with the figures being similar with those estimated for this year's market.
"Now we know there will be a new scrappage scheme and many clients and companies have already postponed their acquisitions and will complete them next year, since they cannot be delayed endlessly, which is why we'll see a slight increase from 2010," Didier Gerard said.
Citroen wants to reach a market share of around 2% in sales of cars and commercial utility vehicles this year, with the share to climb and reach 2.5 to 3% next year.
"Over the past two years, we've grown by 0.5% on average each year. It may not seem much, but this is not bad given that the market is a highly competitive one".
Citroen network last week expanded with two new investments, one in Constanţa, carried out by Grupul Rădăcini, and one in northern Bucharest , through SD Prestige dealer.
Next year, Citroen network will include another five centres, two of which in Bucharest and one in Iaşi.
