The rapid expansion of Kia Philippines has been further boosted by the simultaneous opening of Kia Otis and Kia Marikina—both under the management of Willy Tee Ten’s Autohub Group.
These dealerships are the 43rd and 44th Kia dealerships in the country. Both dealerships, which also showcase Kia’s new global look, bring the Kia brand experience closer to car buyers in the Manila and Marikina areas.
Kia Otis and Kia Marikina will enhance the ownership journey by offering next-level service, thanks to their very convenient locations and comfortable facilities. Its sales, after-sales, maintenance, and support services make sure that all customers’ needs are taken care of in a timely and professional manner.
These two new dealerships are strategic in their locations. Kia Otis, located in the heart of the bustling city of Manila, offers a convenient venue that is easily accessible to those who live and work near Manila Bay and the Port Area.
Meanwhile, Kia Marikina will cater to the growing population in the shoemaking capital of the Philippines and the sprawling urbanized eastern countryside.
The opening of Kia Otis and Kia Marikina embodies Kia’s tagline and its commitment to its loyal customers. “This event brings a Movement that Inspires closer to the people, and we are proud to welcome the Autohub Group into our growing family,” says Kia Philippines president Manny Aligada.
“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,” Aligada added.
The Autohub Group has been the purveyor of some of the most iconic brands renowned throughout the world like MINI, Rolls-Royce, Lotus, Vespa, and Triumph. With 24 years of experience in the automotive industry, the Autohub Group continues to forge new partnerships.
“We believe in the Kia brand, which is why we have committed to opening two dealerships at the same time. Kia is very desirable, it’s 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,” says Autohub Group President Willy Tee Ten.
