BYD expands its presence in Metro Manila with the opening of two new dealerships in Fairview and Commonwealth. These additions, under Harmony Auto Philippines, follow the success of the BYD BGC dealership. The new facilities aim to meet the growing demand for electric vehicles in the city.
During the inauguration, Lovelyn Labrador, deputy general manager of BYD Philippines, highlighted their commitment to sustainability and progress. “It’s a proud moment for us as we officially open these two dealerships,” they stated. “At BYD, we believe sustainable mobility is not just a choice but a responsibility we share for future generations.”
Located in Quezon City, BYD Fairview and BYD Commonwealth offer a range of sales and after-sales services to customers. BYD Fairview prides itself as the first 4S dealership in the Philippines, providing sales, service, spare parts and surveys under one roof.
The historic dual inauguration marks a significant step in BYD’s efforts to bring electric vehicle (EV) solutions to the Philippines. With decades of experience in technology, the company supports customers throughout their EV journey, from purchase to maintenance.
These dealerships address the increasing demand for EVs in Metro Manila. BYD provides sustainable, advanced transportation options while enhancing the customer experience.
Quezon City Mayor Joy Belmonte, who attended the event, shared her thoughts on BYD’s impact in the city. “I’m very happy that BYD is doing business in Quezon City because it aligns with our mission to provide sustainable transport for our people,” she said. “Our city is committed to being a leader in climate-friendly initiatives, and partnerships like this reinforce our shared vision for a greener future.”
The BYD Fairview dealership is at Lot 3, Block 168, Commonwealth Avenue, Barangay Fairview, Quezon City, while BYD Commonwealth is at Lot 11, Block 23, 170, Quezon City, 1127. Both sites meet BYD’s global standards for dealership design.
The facilities include spacious showrooms featuring the latest BYD models, comfortable lounges for customers, and open workshop layouts for transparent service processes. Areas dedicated to vehicle negotiations and releases ensure a smooth experience for buyers.
During the launch, Miguel Palma, general manager of Harmony Auto Philippines, emphasized their commitment to providing top-notch services. “These dealerships symbolize our dedication to bringing EV technology closer to communities. Today, Filipinos can choose from cutting-edge models that best suit their needs,” they said. They also revealed plans for more exciting developments in 2025.
Their strategic locations along key roads make them easily accessible for both residents and businesses in Quezon City. These dealerships bring EV technology closer to communities and encourage the shift to more sustainable transportation.
The service area at BYD Fairview includes six work bays and a dedicated bay for wheel alignment, balancing, and tire mounting. Both dealerships handle various services, including preventive maintenance, repairs, battery replacements, diagnostics and bodywork.
The workshops feature original BYD diagnostic tools and specialized equipment, ensuring high-quality service. Trained BYD-certified technicians and advisors assist customers with any concerns.
ACMobility CEO Jaime Alfonso Zobel de Ayala, via a video message, also announced plans for expansion, stating, “This year, we aim to activate over 700 charging points nationwide, making EV ownership more convenient and accessible for Filipinos. Together, we are shaping the future of mobility in the Philippines.”
He added, “Months ago, we formally assigned Harmony to these dealerships in Fairview and Commonwealth. Today, we witness the fruition of our team’s dedication to electric mobility and progress. These new dealerships join 25 others serving Filipinos in their search for cost-efficient, accessible and environmentally friendly mobility solutions.”
Mayor Belmonte reinforced ACMobility’s statement, emphasizing Quezon City’s role as a climate-friendly hub. “Our city is transitioning all official vehicles, including police cars, to electric models by 2025. Partnerships like this accelerate our progress in reducing carbon emissions and addressing climate change.”
As BYD continues to expand its reach, company representatives shared their enthusiasm for the future. “We are just getting started. More exciting developments are in store for 2025, and we look forward to sharing them with you soon,” they concluded.
