Now that the lifting of the enhanced community quarantine is just a few days away, and with other areas now under a downgraded general community quarantine, many automotive dealerships have started to release their guidelines on their operations.
With this initiative, people who will visit auto dealerships post-lockdown will still be able to continue the efforts to prevent the further spreading of the virus.
Maxus Philippines
Maxus said that its dealerships will adopt “new normal” operations upon reopening. Maxus Philippines’ GM Reginald See said that Maxus dealerships will implement guidelines to guarantee the safety of its employees, business partners, and customers. Maxus’ guidelines include the following:
- Customers will be required to wear facemasks. If they forget to bring one, Maxus will provide.
- Customers will be screened for body temperature. If the reading exceeds 37°C, the customer shall be refused entry.
- Social distancing will strictly be implemented.
- Hand sanitizers will be made accessible in dealerships.
- Aftersales services are by appointment only. Customers are advised to call their Maxus dealers first.

Strictly follow dealerships' safety rules
Kia Philippines issued a 9-Step Guide to Facility Preparation before allowing its employees to report for work. Some of the steps include disinfection of all areas, posting proper markings for physical distancing, and providing hand washing solutions.
In addition, Kia will also implement a ‘no mask, no entry’ policy.
Kia customers who wish to view the vehicles they’re considering are advised to set an appointment with their sales consultant beforehand so as to avoid a large number of people in its showrooms at a given time.
