Haven Motor Company has announced its appointment as part of the SsangYong UK franchise with news that it will open a new dealership in Horsham.

The dealership will operate the SsangYong franchise from its premises at Handcross Road, Plummers Plain, Horsham.

Haven Motor Company’s dealer principal, Stephen Surrey, said: “We are very pleased to have taken on the SsangYong franchise, and greatly look forward to growing our business as a result. 

"SsangYong has a great range, and with very competitive pricing and a 7-years/150,000 miles warranty, we believe it will do extremely well in our area. We will be showcasing SsangYong with a Test Drive Launch Event, February 21 to 24.”

SsangYong is gearing-up for a major push to attract new dealers. 

The brand is committed to long term investment in new products and will see at least one new model launched each year through to 2022, offering a very clear product portfolio of SUV, 4x4 and pick-up models - all sectors of the market in growth. 

The SsangYong approach is to make it easy for dealers to acquire and operate the franchise by removing barriers to ensure representing the brand is highly appealing and easily assessable.

SsangYong Motor UK’s managing director, Nick Laird, said: “We and our dealers are focused on giving customers great service, so whether buying a new or used SsangYong, choosing accessories or helping to maintain their car in the years ahead, we are confident customers will appreciate the car, their dealer and the brand. 

"We are especially delighted that Haven Motor Company has decided to add the brand to their dealership in Horsham.”
