Autohub rejoins Kia dealer network in PH

After leaving the brand’s dealer network during the stint of the previous local distributor, the Autohub Group of Companies rejoined the formidable network of Kia in the Philippines.

This, as the Group simultaneously opened the Korean automotive marque’s 43rd and 44th sales facilities in the country, which can be found in Otis, Manila and Marikina.

Both showcasing the brand’s new dealership design, the two new outlets (under the helm of Willy Tee Ten) are aimed at bringing the Kia experience closer to its customers.

In addition, the two new dealerships are set to enhance the ownership journey as their next-level service and comfortable facilities are put up in strategic locations.

Kia Otis is accessible to those who live and work near Manila Bay and the Port Area while the Marikina outlet is ready to cater to the growing population in the shoemaking capital of the Philippines.

“This event brings a Movement that Inspires closer to the people, and we are proud to welcome the Autohub Group into our growing family,” Kia Philippines President Emmanuel Aligada said.

“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.”

Meanwhile, the president of the Autohub Group (which has 24 years of experience in the automotive industry under its belt), expressed his renewed confidence in the brand.

“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,” Tee Ten said.

“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,” he added.

Tee Ten recalled that during the Group’s early years in the business, it opened a Kia dealership in Abad Santos in Binondo. “At that time, I guess, Kia wasn’t meant for us. But now, now is the right time,” he said.

Kia Otis is at 120 President Quirino Avenue Extension in Paco, Manila while the Marikina facility can be found at A. Bonifacio Avenue, Loyola Subdivision, Barangka, Marikina City.
