Conglomerate Ayala Corp. rebranded its automotive arm AC Motors to ACMobility to reflect its expanded strategies and direction.
Ayala said in a statement Friday ACMobility would become an end-to-end mobility provider that encompasses services, infrastructure and eventually digital platforms from being a multi-brand motor vehicle distributor and retailer.
“At ACMobility, we aspire to be the leading mobility provider for all by the end of this decade. By calling ourselves a mobility provider, we seek to go beyond simply selling vehicles. Our goal is to provide value in the whole ecosystem, which includes building a new electric vehicle platform and providing people with different options that enable their mobility in life,” ACMobility chief executive Jaime Alfonso Zobel de Ayala said.
The Ayala Group has been investing in the development of electric vehicle charging stations since 2023. These charging stations have since been consolidated under the helm of ACMobility, which will continue to roll out new stations to support the transition of the automotive industry towards electric mobility.
ACMobility manages a network of 33 charging stations in 16 Ayala Land-operated locations. It plans to add 100 more charging stations in at least 40 locations within 2024.
ACMobility serves as the Philippine distributor of Kia, Volkswagen and BYD passenger cars in the Philippines and operates the largest dealer network for Honda and Isuzu in the country.
It is also the master franchisor of Bosch Car Service (BCS), an automotive workshop network that offers “one-stop-shop services”, covering mechanical repairs to intricate electronics, engine systems, safety features, comfort upgrades, transmission expertise, and a host of other services and diagnostics.
“Through each of the brand partners of ACMobility, the company upholds its commitment to quality customer service, and to providing a wide variety of products and services that bring value to customers and help move Filipinos forward amid a rapidly transforming global automotive industry,” Zobel de Ayala said.
