Honda Cars Philippines Inaugurates First Dealer in Region 8
Honda Cars Philippines, Inc. (HCPI) continues to serve more Filipinos with its expansion in the Eastern Visayas region. On April 28, HCPI officially opened Honda Cars Tacloban, the first dealership in the region that is now offering more accessible sales and aftersales support to Taclobanons.
The dealership is near Bethel International School, Barangay Pawing, Palo, Leyte, which expands to approximately 2,145 square meters, intricately designed to house the latest Honda model lineup, parts and state-of-the-art facilities for general repairs, spare parts, light compact body and paint, and preventive maintenance. The dealership is registered under Topcars Autoworld Corporation, a trusted local partner whose deep roots in Tacloban ensure Honda’s global standards of service are delivered throughout the region.
The inauguration was attended by the Municipal Mayor of Palo, Leyte, Honorable Remedios “Matin” L. Petilla, who delivered a message of support. She commended the dealer for its expansion and shared her optimism about the quality products and services it will provide to Leyte and Samar residents.

HCPI officers present at the event are:

“For many years, our presence in this market (Region 8) has been limited, and we have only been able to reach our customers in Tacloban through caravan activities. With the opening of Honda Cars Tacloban, we can now provide a more consistent, more accessible, and more complete customer experience that Honda owners truly deserve. This dealership strengthens our presence in the region and allows us to offer full services, from sales to after-sales support. It also helps us build long-term relationships with our customers in Tacloban,” said Hidekazu Arai, HCPI president.
Honda Cars Tacloban Showroom is open from Monday to Sunday (8:00am to 5:00pm). Service operations are available from Monday to Saturday (8:00am to 5:00pm). For appointments or inquiries, please contact +639562866399 or send an email to hondataclobanaftersales@gmail.com
