This expansion strengthens Stellantis’ dealer representation across Pretoria and supports the company’s ambitious growth plans as one of the largest importers in the South African automotive sector.
“We’re excited to welcome McCarthy Centurion to our network,” says Mike Whitfield, Managing Director of Stellantis South Africa. “This partnership supports our growth plans and ensures world-class mobility solutions are more accessible to customers in Gauteng.”
