Subaru Southern Africa has announced new additions to their growing dealer network, enhancing convenience and support for the Subaru community.
Starting 1 November, Subaru Bellville will open its doors, serving as a central hub for Subaru sales, service and parts in the Cape Town area.
Located in the heart of Bellville, near the Tyger Valley Shopping Centre, Bellville Golf Club and Tygerberg Nature Reserve, the new dealership offers a more accessible option for Subaru drivers in the northern suburbs.
Subaru Bellville steps in as Subaru Plumstead closes at the end of October, ensuring a seamless transition for their customers and Subaru says it will continue providing the exceptional care customers expect from them.
Subaru is also opening a new Subaru service centre in Windhoek, Namibia’s capital. Expected to open on the 1st of November 2024, this facility will offer top-notch Subaru servicing, repairs and parts availability for our customers in Namibia and the surrounding areas.
Subaru says the new centre strengthens their commitment to serving Subaru owners across South Africa and neighbouring countries.
South Africa's premium automotive sector has experienced unprecedented consolidation over the last two years, with multiple luxury brands restructuring their dealership networks in response to declining sales, economic pressures, and shifting consumer preferences.
Almost every dealership has them – listings that sit quietly in the background, gathering cobwebs. Despite looking good on paper, some used vehicles attract minimal buyer attention and quietly chip away potential revenue. But what if those slow movers weren’t dead ends, but missed opportunities waiting for the right tweak?
A renewed focus on customer care and the well-being of the employees, is high on the agenda of Jaco du Preez, newly appointed General Manager at Waterberg Toyota in Limpopo.
