In celebration of the milestone of selling 1,500 units of the GS3 Emzoom subcompact crossover, GAC Motor Philippines, an Astara company, organized a special social drive event for Emzoom owners. The event brought together nearly a hundred GAC Emzoom vehicles from various dealerships in Luzon to Pampanga.
The convoy, starting from various assembly points across Metro Manila, South Luzon, and North Luzon, including dealerships in Alabang, Lipa, Kawit, Bacoor, Santa Rosa, Manila Bay, New Manila, Congressional Avenue, Fairview, Pasig, Marilao, Pampanga, and Tarlac, converged at Petron Station KM23 along NLEX- Northbound. From there, participants drove to Fabrika Villas in Guagua, Pampanga where a luncheon with a program and games awaited them.
GAC Motor Philippines has reached a landmark selling over 1,500 GS3 Emzoom units by the eve of its launch anniversary on June 30, 2023. By the end of May 2024, retail sales totaled 320 units, with 215 of these being Emzooms. This brings the total of 1,569 Emzoom vehicles sold since its debut in the Philippines.
“To see a large group of Emzoom owners come together to show their support and enthusiasm is a spectacle that never ceases to amaze our team at GAC Motor Philippines. Hand in hand with all Filipinos, we will continue to bring transformative mobility options to every corner of the country. Here’s to the next thousands more GAC Motor cars conquering Philippine roads,” stated Franz Decloedt, Brand Head of GAC Motor Philippines, Astara Philippines.
Participants shared their positive experiences about the gathering and their GS3 Emzoom vehicles.
“We’re gathered today to celebrate our new friendships and our passion for the Emzoom. We appreciate the beauty and reliability of our agile subcompact crossover together, and surely there will be more of us at these drive events soon. Buckle up, let’s hit the road and turn every drive into an adventure. We will Emzoom on,” said Patrick Licup, President of the GAC Emzoom Club PH.
Other Emzoom owners proudly shared their stories:
“It all happened so fast. We saw it at the mall, fell in love with it, and within two weeks, our family had our own car. Now, I am a proud and happy Emzoom owner,” said Kristian Lugtu.
Jay Vincent Serial added, “We were looking for a new crossover for our family. At the Emzoom’s price point and with the top features it offers, the competition was not even close.”
The GS3 Emzoom is a competitively priced subcompact crossover equipped with a 1.5 TGDI engine and a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission (7WDCT), producing 174 horsepower and 270 Nm of torque.
