Kia Philippines prepares drivers for holidays with competitive maintenance program

Kia Philippines, through ACMobility, is promoting its competitive Preventive Maintenance Service (PMS) program to offer drivers practical and affordable vehicle ownership ahead of the holiday travel season. Privileges include extended service intervals set at every 10,000 kilometers or every six months, whichever comes first, intended to minimize operational downtime and allow drivers to easily align maintenance with their travel plans. According to Kia Philippines Managing Director Jay Lopez, the PMS program “is structured to deliver lower maintenance costs while ensuring the highest standards of performance and safety.” Kia emphasizes that ownership is highly practical, citing a potential savings of up to P76,000 over a five-year period compared to market competitors. The average total maintenance cost for five years or 100,000 kilometers is P85,076 for the Kia Sonet and P107,186 for the Kia Sorento Turbo Hybrid, among other models. Drivers are supported by a nationwide network of 35 service centers, all staffed by technicians trained through the Kia Technician’s Boot Camp (KTBC). Kia encourages owners to schedule their PMS early to ensure their vehicles are fully prepared for long-distance holiday road trips.
