Kia PH to open 4 more dealerships in 2020

MANILA: Talk about thriving in the new normal. As businesses have opened up cautiously and with understandable restrictions in compliance with government-mandated health protocols, Kia Philippines is continuing the push to make its portfolio of vehicles more easily available to more people.

New Kia dealerships are set to open shop in key locations in Metro Manila and Luzon. These are all full sales and service facilities designed to fulfill the brand’s "Promise to Care" mantra.

New vehicle owners get a five-years/160,000-km warranty (whichever comes first), 24/7 emergency roadside assistance, and competent service by well-trained technicians.

These new dealerships are the following:

Kia Fairview: The second dealership of the ANC+ Group of Companies, Kia Fairview establishes a presence in northern Metro Manila. Moreover, it is strategically located to attract residents of nearby areas who require quality transportation for varying needs and lifestyles.

Kia Marikina: This is the first Kia dealership of Advan Motor, Inc. and is set to be the brand’s gateway to the east of Metro Manila, as well as the Rizal Province.

Kia Isabela: Located in Santiago City, this Kia facility is set to be the first of its kind for the brand in Region 2, and the fifth Kia dealership of the Laus Group of Companies. It will be operated by their Trader’s Autocenter, and is meant to keenly serve the province with vehicles like the K2500 utility and cargo vans, among others.

Kia Bonifacio Global City: Owned and operated by AC Motors’ Iconic Dealership, Inc., Kia BGC will serve the upscale district with the full lineup of vehicles.

In a release, Kia Philippines said, "Ever since the brand re-launch in 2019 under the Ayala-owned AC Motors group, Kia Philippines has had a number of surprising milestones tucked under its belt. The Kia brand achieved a 124% sales growth during its first year of operations where it also unveiled new models such as the Soluto, the Seltos, and the Stinger. All of these set the tone for the brand’s expansion this 2020."

The dealerships are set to be all open within the year. The company also reported that more dealerships partners have been appointed already and more facilities "are set to be included to the growing network" once plans and designs are final.

“I am very excited to announce that Kia Philippines hopes to continue the gains it has made in 2019 by expanding our reach and allowing us to give Filipinos more surprises,” averred Kia Philippines President Manny Aligada. “We, together with our business partners, are confident that this move will help strengthen the brand’s presence and show the Filipino people that we are here for them, despite the challenges we are facing today.”
