THE Chairman of Innoson Group, Dr. Innocent Chukwuma, at the weekend, disclosed that the company would commence the manufacturing of affordable and quality vehicles in Nigeria by 2018. Innoson made the disclosure while receiving the Nigeria Institute of Public Relations, NIPR’s, ‘Brands Symbol Award’, which was conferred on him by the Acting chairman of Federal Capital Territory, FCT, chapter of the institute, Aliyu Aliyu.

Innoson said the company would begin to roll out the brand new affordable cars from January and would significantly curtail the importation of expensive vehicles into the country. He said: “I am going to launch a car in one month’s time that people can easily buy in Nigeria with small money. I am looking at about N3 million. The car will be big size, which will have air conditioning, automatic gear and other comforts that will make it easier for all. “I am not just interested in the Nigerian market alone but the African market.” and that is where my interest lies now. “I believe that anything you are doing do it well and if properly done it will market itself.

In Innoson Motors where things are done well we try as much as possible to meet international standard and to meet our customers’ demand and expectation with good quality, which people are interested in our vehicles everywhere.” He commended the Federal Government for its efforts at making Nigeria an automobile manufacturing destination, while he called on Nigerians to patronize and support manufacturers in the sector, as well as other sectors.

He said this would drive the growth and development of the manufacturing sector, which remains the only way Nigerian economy could grow faster. Commenting on the award, he expressed happiness that organizations such as NIPR were watching and gave him such high recognition for his little contribution to developing the economy. He said the award will spur him to do more in his automobile manufacturing business, which Africa remains his target market.

Sounds like a company that ain't ready for business.. Maybe they would sit up when a competition arrives..!

A lot of ignorant people in this thread, we shall see nah.!

tmx21:

Imagine; hope this company realizes that autos ain't phones. Stick with average price autos with better quality... don't risk lives with low end autos.

my point exactly, they ain't even taking the business seriously.

Go get robot to improve production.

Hmmmmm, the way they are moving, one day IVM will become a household name. Continue striving...

This is how am going to get mine when it's out

You made no point sire.

They have what it takes to strive in the auto business in Nigeria yet time and time again, they keep playing penalty ball to throwing.

I hope their low cost is indeed low cost with some unique features in it.

Between their marketing strategy is zero!

finally

Bzbd

Like How much is low cost abeg

How do you want them to be operating then

wo, those 2 boda dem wey dey fight, boda white bia bia & boda ilovemystate, wo.... two of unah...

So, son of man should book a biographed copy be dat o. Or even pay for the vehicle in advance sef.

At least it should be first come, first served.

Time for me to bought a car

Buy cheap, buy twice

Nigerians will rather use a N3m Tokunbo car than purchase a brand new Innoson at same price.

There are certain things you don't do as a business man. A N3m car is not considered as cheap in this part of the world. How do you face the competition with other "cheap" Chinese brands in the country with no second hand value?

Good

whitebeard:

Will you keep quiet?

Good news. I hope the low cost they are talking about will be around around 1.5m o. Because anything higher than that, Nigerians go prefer to buy a tokunbo 2011/12 Camry at 3m than to buy Innoson for 3m o.

Modified: 3m won't fly easily. They should have considered 1.5m - 2m if they really want to get to the mass market. Average Nigeria go buy a tested and trusted Camry 2003 over a new Innoson even at 1.5m.

good news
