“We have been getting asked as to why we are already bringing in N. Well, one reason is it supports us, Hyundai, as a brand to become more competitive. Leveraging on our global heritage and accomplishments to set ourselves apart in the market. More importantly, it helps us push further our shared vision, which is to Innovate Everyday. Providing not just exciting mobility solutions but also finding ways to be present in the lives of more Filipino customers”, said Mr. Capacete in his short message thanking the four (4) dealers.
