Hyundai-3S-Kuantan

Hyundai-Sime Darby Motors (HSDM) has opened its first 3S centre in the East Coast of Peninsular Malaysia. The outlet is operated by YS Autoworld Sdn Bhd and is located in Kawasan Perindustrian Semambu, Kuantan.

The RM6 million 3S centre measures 43,560 sq ft and features a showroom, an eight-bay service area (including two Quick Service bays) and a spare parts centre. This facility is expected to cater to 1,000 Hyundai cars registered in Kuantan and surrounding areas.

"With the expansion to the East Coast, we are looking at increasing our market share there from 4% to 7% over the next three years. This new 3S centre in Kuantan will serve as a support hub for all Hyundai service centres in the East Coast, including Kelantan and Terengganu," said Lau Yit Mun, MD of HSDM.
