KGM Motors UK, formerly SsangYong, is proud to welcome Quay Auto Centre to its expanding dealer network. Based in Kingsbridge, Devon, Quay Auto Centre brings more than a century of automotive expertise and community trust to the KGM brand.
Founded in 1914 as Quay Garage Co. Ltd, the business has remained in the same family since 1932 and has served the South Hams community for more than 110 years. Over the decades, the dealership has built a strong reputation for dependable service, expert repairs, and customer care.
Now operating from modern premises on Higher Union Road, Quay Auto Centre offers customers in Kingsbridge and the surrounding areas access to the full KGM range. This includes the flagship Rexton 7-seater SUV, multi-award-winning Musso pick-up, compact Tivoli, and family-ready Korando, along with the all-new Actyon and Torres Hybrids, and electric Torres EVX.
Michael Trembath, Dealer Principal at Quay Auto Centre, said: “We’re proud to represent KGM and to bring such a dynamic, capable range of vehicles to our customers in South Devon. Our long-standing history in the town is built on quality service and local trust. Values we see reflected in the KGM brand. We’re excited for this next chapter in our journey and for all customers, new and old, to come and see the KGM range for themselves.”
The appointment of Quay Auto Centre comes as KGM UK continues to expand its nationwide presence and product line-up. Following its rebrand from SsangYong in January 2024, KGM has launched an exciting portfolio of new models, including the striking Actyon, a bold, coupe-inspired SUV available exclusively in high-spec K50 trim, and the first model launched under the KGM name as part of the brand’s 70th anniversary.
Kevin Griffin, Managing Director at KGM Motors UK, added: “We’re delighted to welcome Quay Auto Centre to the KGM family. Their long-standing service to the community and proven track record makes them a valuable addition to our network. Their appointment strengthens our coverage in the South West and ensures more customers can experience the quality, value and practicality KGM vehicles offer.”
