SsangYong Expands Into Chipping Sodbury With New Dealer • Professional Van

SsangYong continues to expand its dealer network, with Chipping Sodbury Motor Company joining the fold.

Chipping Sodbury Motor Company has been a family-owned business since 1967 when it was started by the grandparents of the current dealer principal and business owner, David Powell. Beginning as a Vauxhall franchisee, the firm has grown and is now operating the SsangYong brand alongside a Ford main dealer and Fiat Authorised Repairer.

Its purpose-built showroom is located just off the High Street in Chipping Sodbury, ten minutes from Junction 18 of the M4 and forty minutes from Bristol. If the relaxing waiting area, free WiFi, tea and coffee making facilities, TV and a selection of newspapers and magazines aren’t enough, customers can take a five-minute stroll where they can find several independent shops, cafes and restaurants.

Chipping Sodbury Motor Group will hold a welcome event on Thursday, the 6th of October, to celebrate their integration into the SsangYong family. They invite customers, businesses and the local media to their showroom to browse their range of SsangYong vehicles.

Kevin Griffin, managing director at SsangYong Motor UK, said: “Chipping Sodbury Motor Company is yet another fantastic addition to our SsangYong family. The team there prides itself on delivering consistently high levels of customer service. We look forward to working with the team and wish them every success.”

David Powell, dealer principal at Chipping Sodbury Motor Company, added: “Being based in the rural county of South Gloucestershire, the team at Chipping Sodbury Motor Company were keen to work with a forward-thinking manufacturer that offers a range of models to meet the needs of local customers. SsangYong’s multiple award-winning range of SUVs and pick-ups, together with their 7-year warranty, and its reputation as a manufacturer that focuses on dealer relations, have been key factors in choosing to take on the SsangYong franchise. We look forward to a long and healthy relationship.”
