Global Star Motors Corporation, an indelible force in Cebu’s automotive dealership industry, is the authorized dealer of BYD electric passenger vehicles in the Queen City of the South. BYD Cars Cebu reintroduces the BYD electric vehicle lineup to the Cebuano masses on April 24, 2024, with the media launch of the electric vehicle brand’s newest showroom at A.S. Fortuna, Banilad, Cebu City.
The new facility will showcase the company’s state-of-the-art fleet of sustainable new-energy vehicle models - the BYD Dolphin electric urban hatchback, the BYD Atto 3 subcompact electric crossover, the BYD Han flagship electric sports sedan, and the BYD Tang electric seven-seat SUV. The unveiling of these vehicles sets a precedent in Cebu’s automotive landscape, warranting a new standard for eco-friendly vehicles.

We want to thank the Ayala Corporation, especially ACMobility and BYD Cars Philippines, for believing in us. Rest assured, the BYD brand is in safe and capable hands in Cebu,” adds Onglatco.
With the support of ACMobility, Ayala Corporation’s electric mobility platform and the distributor of BYD electric vehicles in the country, Global Star Motors Corporation is poised to elevate BYD’s footing here in Cebu, further establishing the green movement in the province.
