United Asia Automotive Group, Inc. (UAAGI) – a stalwart in the Philippine motoring industry with over 18 years of experience in automotive brand guardianship and distribution – rounds out the first quarter of 2024 with an exciting development: UAAGI is now the official distributor of global auto brand Lynk & Co in the Philippines.
The announcement was made during an exclusive preview event held at the prestigious Ayala Museum. Esteemed guests were treated to a glimpse of Lynk & Co Philippines’ future-forward product lineup with the unveiling of two stunning models: the 01 PHEV Crossover and the 06 SUV. The Ayala Museum, known for its stunning collection of artworks, provided a fitting backdrop for these vehicles. Lynk & Co's commitment to elegant design and distinguished aesthetics was perfectly complemented by the museum's atmosphere. The sleek lines and modern features of the cars blended seamlessly with the museum's ambience, leaving a lasting impression that these Lynk & Co models are more than just automobiles – but, indeed works of art.
"We introduce Lynk & Co Philippines to the local market with much excitement and positivity, knowing that this brand affords Filipinos the opportunity to drive home a premium, global vehicle that ticks all the right boxes in terms of design aesthetic, safety, and modern connectivity,” says Froilan Dytianquin, UAAGI Group Managing Director and Lynk & Co Philippines Brand Head.
Lynk & Co is a joint venture between the Volvo Car Group and the Geely Auto Group and, as such, benefits from the strengths of both automotive powerhouses. Most notably, Lynk & Co vehicles are designed and built using advanced architectural platforms such as CMA, SEA, and BMA. These platforms allow for model scalability and adaptability in light of new energy solutions, such as translation of Lynk & Co's designs to accommodate new electric vehicle technologies.
“Lynk & Co not only elevates UAAGI's entire auto brand portfolio, but also allows us to cater to a wider audience of Filipino motorists and their discerning tastes and preferences. We believe Lynk & Co Philippines perfectly complements UAAGI's existing offerings, providing Filipinos with a wider range of modern, stylish, safe, high-quality automotive choices," says UAAGI Chairman Rommel L. Sytin.
Lynk & Co Philippines is set to make its official public debut at the highly anticipated 2024 Manila International Auto Show (MIAS 2024,) happening from April 4-7, 2024. Lynk & Co Philippines’ display is located at the World Trade Center in Pasay City, where test drives of the newest Lynk & Co vehicles will be made available.
