The Changan Dumaguete dealership’s opening allows the brand to expand its foothold and cater to the diverse needs within the growing Visayas and Mindanao markets. This new dealership enables Changan to provide mobility to Dumagueteños and its neighboring towns, now that its diverse and growing 7-vehicle lineup, inclusive of the brand’s best-selling CS SUV line – the CS35, CS55, and CS15 are all made even more accessible to the consumers of Central Visayas.
The 220-square meter Changan dealership showroom, located in National Road, Sibulan, Dumaguete City is a product of Inchcape Philippines’ successful partnership with Global Star Motors Corporation, a premier dealer network organization in Cebu City, dedicated to bringing the best automotive brands to their local provincial market. It allows the Changan brand to continuously outspread its 160-year legacy of industrial experience, 65 years of which is especially dedicated to showcasing automotive expertise globally.
