Abu Dhabi, May 20, 2009

Emirates Motor Company (EMC), distributor of Mercedes-Benz for Daimler Middle East and Levant (DMEL), has inaugurated the world’s largest Mercedes-Benz facility in Abu Dhabi.

The opening of the brand new one million square feet Mercedes-Benz dealership located in the Mussafah district of Abu Dhabi coincided with the unveiling of the new Mercedes-Benz E-Class.

'We are extremely delighted to launch the landmark facility in Mussafah as the ‘New’ Abu Dhabi is expanding around this area and we already see numerous, large developments under construction,' stated Saeed Abdul Jalil Al Fahim, chairman of Al Fahim Group.

Mercedes-Benz’s new E-Class Sedan sports a sleek and dignified design. With its sophisticated and powerful presence, it has set itself apart as a class leader in safety, comfort and environmental sensitivity, he added.

“The new-generation vehicle builds on a model that has achieved success all over the world.  Mercedes-Benz cars in the 'E' series symbolize the world's most successful business sedan,” added Christopher Preston, chief of Automotive Division of Al Fahim Group.

Designed and created to accommodate EMC’s growing customer base, the new EMC headquarters features a 4,382 sq m showroom, 20,873 sq m service centre with over 250 work-bays, 7,196 sq m area for spare parts, a multi-storey parking lot and staff accommodation, enough space to fit in 50 airbuses.

The new energy efficient office structure is built with three vertical openings ascending to the roof for filtering in daylight to add a sense of spaciousness to the facility. It additionally features glass exteriors and environmentally sustainable concepts symbolising the group’s core values.-TradeArabia News Service
