LIST: Philippine car brands that offer discounts to frontliners

Spearheading the fight against COVID-19 on the ground, our frontliners need all the help they can get. In true bayanihan fashion, individual citizens and organizations are doing whatever they can to augment the government’s efforts to extend assistance, whether in terms of food, transportation, donations of protective equipment, or just plain old moral support.

Frontliners need all the help they can get to save more lives

A number of car brands in our market are also getting in on the act, recognizing the valiant efforts of our everyday heroes by offering discounts exclusively to frontliners, from car purchases to aftersales services.

Mitsubishi Motors Philippines Corporation (MMPC) is offering a special promo, called the Hero Priority Lane. The program will prioritize frontliners, including midwives and delivery personnel, at the carmaker’s various dealership outlets and service centers. Preferential treatment in billing, payment, and vehicle delivery makes the car ownership experience more convenient for them.

Moreover, frontliners will also be entitled to exclusive discounts on oil changes for select Mitsubishi vehicles: Montero Sport, Strada, Mirage (hatchback and G4), L300, Adventure, Lancer, Xpander, and Pajero. Mitsubishi’s Hero Priority Lane runs until June 30, 2020.

This is on top of the standard dealer discounts for Suzuki models.
