Autohub Group president Willy Tee Ten and vice president for communications Owee Cruz try a Triumph motorcycle on for size.
THE Autohub Group of Companies, which announced it will be the official distributor of Triumph Motorcycles in the Philippines, said the British brand’s local launch will mean enthusiasts can look forward to adventure bikes (Tiger 800, Tiger 1200), roadsters (Street Triple, Speed Triple, Rocket 3) and modern classics (Bonneville T100, Bonneville T120, Thruxton, Street Twin, Street Scrambler, Speed Twin, Scrambler 1200, Bonneville Bobber and Bonneville Speedmaster).
Autohub said it targets to launch Triumph Motorcycles by late December or early January 2020, adding the brand’s first dealership will be located in Greenhills. A second showroom will be built in October 2020 in Bonifacio Global City.
“We are committed to build a ‘Triumph World Black’ facility for our flagship showroom in Greenhills,” said Autohub Group president Willy Tee Ten. “Not only will this help us meet market demand in Manila, but it will also be a great hub for the longtime fans of the brand.”
Autohub said Sammy Montecastro has been appointed general manager of Triumph Motorcycles.
“We are thrilled to finally share our exclusive distributorship of Triumph in the Philippines. Indeed, we consider this a triumph for the Autohub Group — we began our negotiations with the brand in 2015 and patiently persevered until this year to hopefully win the rights,” Tee Ten said.
For his part, Triumph Motorcycles head of export sales Peter Huckin said; “Appointing a strong and professional distributor emphasizes our serious commitment to an increasingly important and growing Philippine market. We are looking forward to a long and prosperous relationship.”
Triumph Motorcycles has been produced for more than a century. It also has a diverse range of lifestyle products, from biking accessories to apparel.
