HiQ partners with HPL to launch sales and servicing hub

HiQ Tyres & Autocare has partnered with HPL Motors to open a dual-branded sales and servicing hub inside HPL Motors’ car supermarket in Stockport.

The partnership sees HiQ, part of the Goodyear network, take on the operation of all servicing, repair and MOT functions on site, allowing customers to benefit from HiQ’s expertise in a convenient dealership setting.

HPL runs five used car supermarkets across the region.

Sarah Gumbley, retail business consultant Goodyear, said: “This is the first step in an exciting partnership that aims to transform the car-buying and servicing experience for drivers in Greater Manchester. Our shared goal is to give customers the confidence that the same high standard of transparency and reliability applies from the moment they choose their vehicle right through to its ongoing maintenance.”

The Stockport centre is managed by Scott Elwood who has stepped into an expanded role to oversee the HiQ operation and manage a team of nine staff across technical and customer service roles.

Elwood said: “HiQ is a recognised and highly respected name in our industry, and its reputation complements the values we’ve built at HPL Motors over more than three decades.”
