Calgary, AB - Dilawri Group of Companies, Canada's largest automotive group, today announced their latest dealership addition, Country Hills Volkswagen. This brand new dealership represents the fifth Volkswagen franchise for Dilawri, and their 68th dealership nationwide.
"We couldn't be more pleased to announce the opening of our first Volkswagen dealership in Alberta" said Co-Principal Director Tony Dilawri. "We are very proud to have been selected by Volkswagen Canada to represent the brand in the North Calgary market area. We look forward to servicing the loyal Volkswagen customer base and showcasing Volkswagen's lineup of attractive, safe, and technologically advanced vehicles at this new world class facility."
Conveniently accessible by both Deerfoot Trail and Stoney Trail, the new state-of-the-art facility located at 11380 Stonehill Drive was designed based upon the latest VW global "White Frame" image program. The dealership boasts a stunning 10 vehicle showroom, two delivery bays, oversized six-car service drive-through, 15 mechanical service bays including alignment, four detailing bays, and a fully automatic car wash system. The bright and modern showroom is also equipped with a home-theatre room and a spacious customer lounge including luxurious leather seating, complimentary snacks, freshly ground Starbucks coffee, and free Wi-Fi.
With environmental responsibility and sustainability as key design concepts, Country Hills VW was constructed using the most advanced and environmentally friendly technologies available. Each of the 14 in-ground hoists features a patented technology that runs on water and compressed air rather than oil to provide clean and efficient vehicle lifting, energy efficient floor to ceiling glass envelops the showroom, and LED light fixtures were installed to reduce power consumption. Further supporting the dealership's commitment to sustainability, a filtered water system was installed in favour of providing bottled water, and all cups, stir sticks, and paper products provided in the lounge are recycled and biodegradable.
"This dealership has been carefully planned to embrace the Volkswagen brand experience and we are truly excited to share this experience with the local community," said General Sales Manager Christopher Sage. "We have assembled a remarkable team of dedicated individuals who are eager to provide an exceptional sales and service experience to both existing and new customers to the brand."
