New Delhi, 2nd October
Even the CEO of a luxury car brand sometimes needs an auto rickshaw to get to their destination. This was the case for Martin Schwenk, CEO of Mercedes-Benz India, after he was recently caught in a traffic jam in Pune.
Stuck in traffic, Schwenk got out of his Mercedes S-Class and walked a few kilometers to an autorickshaw, he said in an Instagram post.
Sharing the photo, Schwenk wrote:
The post went viral on social media, with several users asking him about his experience riding an auto-rickshaw.
One user wrote, “Good luck. Not everyone is lucky enough to find an auto-rickshaw driver to take them to their destination.”
Another user wrote, “I still sit in the S-Class and enjoy the rich comfort, even with the traffic.”
Schwenk has been with the brand since 2006. In 2018, he became CEO of Mercedes-Benz India. iansu
