Sutherlin Automotive Group Acquires Car Pros Kia of Huntington Beach, Setting a New Standard for Kia Retailing in Southern California
HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif. — Sutherlin Automotive Group today announced the acquisition of Car Pros Kia of Huntington Beach, marking the beginning of a long-term vision to create one of America's premier Kia dealerships.
As part of that vision, Sutherlin Automotive Group plans to invest approximately $20 million in the development of a new five-acre, state-of-the-art dealership campus adjacent to Sutherlin Subaru Huntington Beach. The new facility will significantly expand sales and service capacity while creating one of Southern California's largest automotive retail campuses and positioning Sutherlin Kia Huntington Beach among the nation's leading Kia dealerships.
Car Pros Kia of Huntington Beach has established itself as one of California's highest-volume Kia dealerships in one of the nation's most competitive automotive markets. Sutherlin Automotive Group plans to build upon that success through substantial investments in its facilities, technology, team members, and customer experience, while creating a dealership designed to serve the Huntington Beach community for generations.
"This is about far more than acquiring another dealership," said Brett Sutherlin, Owner & CEO of Sutherlin Automotive Group. "We believe Huntington Beach deserves one of the finest Kia dealerships in America, and that's exactly what we intend to build. Our $20 million investment reflects our long-term commitment to this community and our belief that the very best dealerships are built by investing in great people, exceptional facilities, and an ownership experience that customers are proud to recommend."
As part of the company's long-term vision, Sutherlin Kia Huntington Beach will relocate from its current 1.5-acre site to a newly developed 5-acre campus featuring an expanded showroom, significantly increased service capacity, modern guest amenities, and the latest Kia retail design standards. The new facility is designed to support one of the highest-volume Kia operations in the United States, with the goal of becoming a Top 5 Kia dealership nationally by annual sales volume.
Together, Sutherlin Subaru Huntington Beach and Sutherlin Kia Huntington Beach will form the flagship of Sutherlin Automotive Group's West Coast operations, creating one of Southern California's premier automotive destinations and reflecting the company's long-term commitment to the Huntington Beach community.
