Hicom-Chevrolet, the newly established joint-venture company between DRB-Hicom and General Motors Asia Pacific distributing and marketing Chevrolet vehicles in Malaysia, has plans to grow the dealer network in Malaysia as quickly as possible in order to reach 5,500 units a year and among the brand new outlets are three facilities operated by Cergazam Sdn Bhd.

“We are proud to be associated with a global brand like Chevrolet and aim to deliver on its brand promise of quality and value at our 3S centres,” said Eddie Chai, Cergazam’s Executive Director, adding that the three fully-equipped outlets ‘represent our commitment to support Hicom-Chevrolet in building and strengthening the Chevrolet brand in Malaysia’.

“As for spare parts,  we have made sure that we carry enough stock and our PJ store will have over RM2.5 million of spare parts. Furthermore, with direct access to the GM support network, Cergazam is assured of efficient, speedy and systematic delivery of spare parts,” Mr Chai said.

He is highly optimistic about the business prospects of Chevrolet in Malaysia and said that there will be three or four more models in the showrooms by the end of the year. Meanwhile, Cergazam has already sold some 100 units of the Captiva SUV, of which 80% are the turbodiesel version.
