New name, Fresh lineup — Korean auto brand returns under a different Phl distributor

WITH bigger space, the Tivoli Grand is a worthy upgrade.
KG Mobility is a South Korean-based automaker with operations dating back to 1954. If the name doesn't ring a bell, it's because prior to December 2022, it was known as SsangYong Motor, the brand people are familiar with.
The change may be viewed as unnecessary since the name SsangYong Motor has already been recognized as one of the reputable car brands in the country for years.
But the name change was a perfect move since the KG Group — the chemical and steel company that is now KG Mobility's largest shareholder — has set its sights on going beyond traditional vehicle manufacturing and be able to produce electric and autonomous vehicles.
KG Mobility's focus on making the future of driving an exciting one through its lineup of mobility vehicles is something worth anticipating. That's why The Covenant Car Company Inc. is proud to be KG Mobility's partner in the country as exclusive distributor of its vehicles.
"The Covenant Car Company Inc. is very pleased to offer our discerning Filipino car buyers these innovative, safe, and modern automobiles from KG Mobility," TCCCI Chairman, Ambassador Jose L. Cuisia Jr., said.

IN case you're wondering, KG Mobility's Torres is named after Torres del Paine, a spectacular national park in southern Chile.
"We are optimistic that the local motoring public will respond positively to our portfolio of product offerings, and we are likewise eager to grow KGM PH into a household name for expertly crafted, reliable, Korean-made automobiles."
During last week's official unveiling of vehicles, the TCCCI-KG Mobility partnership unveiled the first five KG Mobility models: the Tivoli subcompact crossover SUV, Tivoli Grand compact crossover SUV, Torres compact crossover SUV, Rexton mid-size SUV, and the Musso Grand pickup truck.
TCCCI announced that the entire lineup comes with a five-year or 100,000-kilometer warranty (whichever comes first), 24/7 roadside assistance, and an affordable cost-of-ownership package with ready access to spare parts and dedicated expert servicing under the KG Mobility Solutions aftersales program.
