AFP receives special car and motorcycle package from AC Motors 

AC Motors, the Ayala Group automotive subsidiary has formally joined the Ayala “Saludo sa Serbisyo” (Salute to Service) needs-based program for Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) personnel. This comes in the form of what AC Motors calls the “Special Car and Motorcycle Package.”

To be specific, retired or active members of the Philippine Army, Philippine National Police, and other uniformed personnel can now enjoy exclusive discounts, packages, and many other benefits when purchasing a vehicle from any of the Ayala-owned car or motorcycle brands. 

For those unaware, AC Motors is the official distributor of Honda, Isuzu, Kia, Volkswagen, Maxus, Husqvarna motorcycles, and KTM motorcycles in the local market. AC Motors is under the Ayala-owned AC Industrials Technology Holdings Inc., formerly known as the Ayala Automotive Holdings Corporation. To this end, the models from these world-class brands are more easily attainable by the AFP members. 

To commemorate this occasion, a caravan featuring several models from the aforementioned brands was held at Camp Aguinaldo, Quezon City on July 29, 2021. During the event, the memorandum of understanding was also signed. 

The said caravan showed off popular models like the all-new Isuzu D-Max, the new Honda City, the Kia Seltos, the Maxus D60, among others.

Apart from the discounts from AC Motors, the “Saludo sa Serbisyo '' program also provides several other services for AFP personnel courtesy of several Ayala-owned corporations. These include housing assistance, a financial education program, an employment program for retired officers and dependents, livelihood programs, as well as a health and wellness program.

So if you have friends and family who are currently working under the AFP and/or are uniformed personnel, thank them for their service and share with them this bit of good news.
