The Market Monitor Minding the Nation's Business
Autobot Offroad Philippines, the premier modification, accessories and maintenance shop for 4×4, off-road, and overlanding vehicles in the country, celebrated its 16th anniversary with the inauguration of its multi-bay service shop inside the Autobot Offroad HQ+ at No. 77 Road 20, Barangay Bahay Toro.
The Autobot Service Center offers periodic maintenance service, oil change and tune-up, wheel balancing, camber and alignment, brakes and underchassis service.
Customers can also choose from a wide selection and sizes of tires from Michelin, BF Goodrich, Apollo, Arivo, Nitto, Cooper Tires, Dunlop, Toyo, Maxxis, and Mickey Thompson as well as aftermarket wheels from Volk Racing, Fuel Offroad, XD Wheels, KMC Wheels, VLF Wheels, Black Rhino, Jaos, and Wald. It also offers accessories, detailing and total car care services.
Autobot president and CEO Randy Lao hopes that by offering PMS and other automotive services through the Autobot Service Center, they can serve and satisfy their loyal customers more faithfully. He attributes God’s divine grace as the source of the company’s 16 years of strength and success, considers everybody in the organization as the pillars of the company motto #AutobotStrong, and looks forward to more years of growth and expansion to continue their vision of promoting a homegrown Filipino brand into the world market.
Lao started Autobot as a small carwash and detailing shop in 2007 and it quickly evolved into Autobot Autoworks after it started marketing and installing car parts and accessories while servicing and modifying their customers’ vehicles.
As the automobile market grew and diversified, Lao and his chief operations officer Ken Lao saw the potential of the vast and relatively untapped 4×4, off-road and overlanding market and evolved the company into Autobot Offroad PH, as it is known today. To further increase their mastery of the off-road market, they attend the Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA) Show in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA, as well as other shows in order to offer the latest aftermarket upgrades and modifications for pickup trucks and SUVs.
