Mazda Motor Corporation has appointed Eurokars Motor Indonesia, a member of Eurokars Group, as the distributor of Mazda vehicles in Indonesia following its decision to leave the country.
Eurokars Group spokesperson Angeline Tan said Mazda’s distribution network of 45 dealers would be officially transferred from Mazda Motor Indonesia to Eurokars Indonesia in February.
“This appointment represents a significant milestone for Eurokars Group. It also reflects the synergistic partnership between Mazda Motor Corporation and Eurokars Group, which is well-positioned to run the distributorship,” she said in a press statement in Jakarta on Friday.
Following the official transfer, she added, Eurokars would take over existing staff members and dealers currently under Mazda Indonesia. It will also be responsible for after-sales including the warranties of all Mazda vehicles sold by Mazda Indonesia prior to the transfer.
Founded in 1985, Eurokars was a dealer for Mazda cars in Indonesia in 2007 and took over the distribution of Mazda vehicles in Singapore in 2011.
From November, Mazda Indonesia’s business entity will be changed from a sole distributor to an importer of the Japan-based Mazda Motor Corporation’s products in related to the business decision.
