Autohub Group brings back Kia in its dealership portfolio

- BY ALAIN LOUISE GERONIMO

AUTOMOTIVE dealer giant Autohub Group has added Kia in its brand portfolio with two new dealership­s, making a return of the Korean marque to its brand portfolio.

The recently opened Kia Otis, located in Quirino Avenue Extension in Manila, and Kia Marikina, located in A. Bonifacio Avenue in Marikina City, helps expand Kia Philippine­s’ reach to more people located near Manila Bay as well as the mountainou­s Marikina City, through Autohub Group’s dealership and service expertise.

“We believe in the Kia brand, which is why we have committed to opening two dealership­s at the same time. Kia is very desirable, its model mix is very timely and we feel that it is a perfect fit for our growing portfolio of trusted car brands — while providing an array of automotive choices in all segments and fleet solutions to our customers. The decision to carry Kia is an obvious one. The brand has shown strong growth and has massive potential, and that’s what we need now in Autohub,” Autohub Group President Willy Tee Ten said.

The Otis dealership, where the launch event was held, is the first to follow Kia’s internatio­nal dealer standard layout in the country. Besides the main showroom in the dealership, Autohub’s car care products are also made available inside as well.

“Maybe Kia wasn’t meant for us back then, but now, the opening of Kia Otis and Kia Marikina signals a triumphant return to our brand suite after a couple years,” he added.

“This event brings a Movement that Inspires closer to the people, and we are proud to welcome the Autohub Group into our growing family. Opening not just one — but two — new dealership­s is indeed a milestone for us. Under the experience­d management of the Autohub Group, we are confident that Kia Otis and Kia Marikina will bring even more joy to our treasured customers. We look forward to a meaningful and fruitful partnershi­p with the Autohub Group in the years to come,” Kia Philippine­s president Manny Aligada said.
