VW also announced the opening of its Greenfield Service Center. The 2200 square meter facility is located along Sheridan Street in Mandaluyong. The service center features 15 work bays and a customer lounge.

The event included the official launch of the Jetta and Polo Notch sedans, which are being offered at special introductory prices.

VW is planning to open more showrooms this year in North EDSA, Alabang, and Cebu.
