New Hyundai agents in north
Two new motor companies have joined Hyundai, both in the far north.
Petersen Motors in Kaikohe and Archibald Motors in Kaitaia have become parts and service agents for the fast-growing
South Korean brand.
"It's great to welcome these two progressive companies in to the Hyundai family," commented the General Manager of
Hyundai Automotive New Zealand Philip Eustace.
"This is continued expansion for Hyundai in New Zealand, where we are on a roll with just over 70 percent growth in
sales this year.
"Right across the range of cars and SUVs New Zealanders are increasingly recognising Hyundai's quality, safety and value
for money," said Mr Eustace.
The appointment of both Archibald and Petersen Motors is an important part of our strategy to ensure our customers are
looked after well. These two companies cover a large catchment area.
Northland Autos in Whangarei have relinquished the Hyundai Franchise. As an interim measure Allen Motors Northland will
be assisting with all Hyundai Parts & Service enquiries. A new Hyundai Dealer appointment will be announced early in the New Year.
