A FURTHER five new dealers have joined the SsangYong franchise, with appointments currently running at around one a month.
The new appointments are:
- Burrells Motor Group, Doncaster;
- Driven Car Sales, Stockton-on-Tees;
- Hammertons, Batley, West Yorkshire;
- Horsham Car Centre, Horsham, West Sussex;
- Shukers, Telford.
Paul Williams, CEO of SsangYong Motor UK, said: ‘The arrival of the new Tivoli B-segment crossover has certainly increased interest in the franchise from across the motor trade.
‘Confidence in the SsangYong brand has been growing steadily as our sales performance indicates, but Tivoli has really fired up inquiries from potential dealers. We’re also now hearing from businesses representing premium brands looking for another string to their bow.
‘Additionally, we’re finding that existing SsangYong dealers are wanting to add the brand to other locations they either already have or want to open for us. This is hugely encouraging.’
SsangYong is actively looking for the right quality of dealers, with an entrepreneurial ‘can-do’ attitude, to represent the brand in a number of locations. Current open points include Aberdeen, Ayr, Barnstaple, Newbury, Nottingham and Portsmouth.
