Hyundai introducing a new line up at Autoexpo Africa for Tanzania

 Tanzania offers many opportunities and the 21st Autoexpo Africa scheduled for November 2018 in Dar es Salaam is one of the mainstream avenues for marketing a global brand like Hyundai to the East African region. The company is preparing to introduce new products and is working on expanding its portfolio of vehicles to cater to the next generation car owner. Hyundai believes that people’s expectation toward individual mobility requires more than just a convenient means of transportation. The old understanding of cars has become outdated. A car represents an individuals’ lifestyle, and has become an integral part of their lives. At the same time, the automobile industry has experienced a seismic change in the way a car is designed. As a Prime Platinum Sponsor at the Autoexpo Tanzania, Hyundai East Africa Ltd, aims to attract the consumer car owners and commercial vehicle owners to increase its market base and expand its domination in the region. 

 
Hyundai Motor Vehicles are known for its fresh style and top dynamic performance with world class reliability. The Hyundai East Africa Limited was established in 1991, with its core activities focused on Hyundai motor vehicles (sales, parts & services). The group began its East African operations in Tanzania and has since diversified into a multi core business. Hyundai Automobile Distributor agreement was signed in the name of Hyundai East Africa Ltd. The initiation of Hyundai business coincided with Tanzania’s liberalization policy.
 
“We Build a Better Future” is Hyundai’s slogan and promise which has been instrumental in guiding the company. The vehicles are known for their reliability, superior performance and sustained trouble free operation towards which the Hyundai Team in East Africa is committed to and which reflect in their constant endeavors. Hyundai Motor Company has grown rapidly to become one of the largest automakers in the world. Backed by world class production capability and superior quality, the company has now reached a point where there is a great need for a qualitative approach to bring bigger ideas and relevant solutions to the new generation of customers.
