The event is open to car dealers and the general public. Many of the vehicles in the auction are dealership demonstrator units and corporate fleet vehicles, most are: premier brands, late models, low mileage, and many are still under the original manufacturer’s warranty.

The auction industry in the Philippines is still emerging, however, globally the sale of motor vehicles through auction is very widely practiced. In the USA, the majority of car dealerships purchase their dealership stock from auctions. The auction also provides the general public with an excellent opportunity to purchase a family car for a price lower than the dealership.

Powell adds: “HMR Auto Auctions aims to meet the growing demand within the Philippine market for an efficient, transparent and affordable method for car dealerships and the general public to purchase quality pre-owned motor vehicles.”

Some 300 bidders are expected to join in the auto auction, says Trixie Cabilan, marketing manager.
