The signing brought together executives from Jetour Auto Philippines and MG Gateway Mantrade Corporation. Representing Jetour were Kenneth Sytin, Vice Chairman of UAAGI Auto Group; Timothy Sytin, Executive Director of Jetour Auto Philippines; and Miguelito Jose, Managing Director of Jetour Auto Philippines. They were joined by MG Gateway Mantrade Corporation’s Markane Goho, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and Alvin Lu, General Manager.
Jetour Auto Philippines operates under UAAGI Auto Group, a Filipino multi-brand distributor with 20 years of experience in the local automotive industry. MG Gateway Mantrade Corporation, meanwhile, is an automotive dealership group involved in passenger vehicle sales and aftersales operations in the Philippines.
“We are pleased to welcome MG Gateway Mantrade Corporation as a dealer partner of Jetour Auto Philippines,” said Miguelito Jose, Managing Director, Jetour Auto Philippines. “Their experience in automotive retail and commitment to customer service will support our efforts to expand the Jetour network and serve more customers nationwide.”
The Manila Bay outlet will also support Jetour Auto Philippines as it builds up its electrified vehicle range. The brand’s Lightning i-DM lineup currently includes the Jetour X70 Lightning i-DM, Jetour T2 Lightning i-DM, and Jetour T1 Lightning i-DM.
These models combine electric mobility with extended driving capability, giving Jetour a stronger presence in the local electrified SUV market. The lineup sits alongside the brand’s broader range of SUVs and crossovers aimed at family and lifestyle buyers.
Jetour Auto Philippines’ local portfolio includes the X70 midsize 7-seater SUV, the Dashing compact SUV, the X50 compact crossover, the Ice Cream EV, and the T2 4x4 SUV. The recently introduced Jetour T1 Lightning i-DM 4x2 SUV further expands the brand’s hybrid SUV lineup.
With Jetour Auto Manila Bay, the company gains another sales and service point for its growing customer base. The dealership forms part of the brand’s long-term network expansion as it brings more SUVs, electrified models, and mobility technologies to the Philippine market.
