PRNewswire
Singapore, February 9: Carro, Asia Pacific's fastest growing automotive ecosystem and marketplace, is pleased to announce they are now an authorised dealer for Dongfeng Motor Corporation, marking the milestone with 2 brand-new, exclusive showrooms in Sin Ming, Singapore and Petaling Jaya, Malaysia.
- Carro opens 2 new exclusive showrooms for Dongfeng in Sin Ming, Singapore and PJ Midtown, Selangor

With Dongfeng Motor Corporation under its wings, the automotive unicorn is now an authorised dealer of 2 automotive brands, including Zeekr, as they continue to expand their strategy of offering brand-new cars.
The partnership with Volt Auto, the sole distributor of Dongfeng vehicles, is anchored in Carro's strong presence in Asia Pacific and its robust CRM ecosystem. Together, both parties aim to enhance customer value through more competitive trade-in options, integrated financing and insurance solutions, and a seamless end-to-end ownership experience for Dongfeng customers.
The latest Dongfeng VIGO, Dongfeng 007 and Dongfeng BOX will be sold at all Dongfeng showrooms powered by Carro in Singapore and Malaysia. All Dongfeng cars by Carro come with an Authorised Dealer warranty, as well as Carro's exclusive financing and insurance solutions.
"We're really excited to include yet another trusted brand in our lineup for our customers in Singapore and Malaysia," says Fong Hon Sum, CEO of International Marketplace at Carro. "We're seeing a growing demand for hybrid and electric vehicles in both countries, and we want to give our customers the perfect choices as they pick their next car. As early proponents of EVs and NEVs, we're confident of our experience and expertise in this sector, be it with inspections, repairs, and maintenance, and our customers can feel assured when they pick Carro as their dealer of choice."
"Partnering with Carro enables us to scale more efficiently while delivering tangible value to customers, particularly through better trade-in outcomes and a more integrated ownership journey," said Soh Ming, Founder and Managing Director of Volt Auto. "Carro's regional footprint and data-driven capabilities complement our ambition to grow Dongfeng as a leading EV brand in Singapore and Malaysia."
Volt Auto's momentum in Singapore is underscored by strong industry recognition. The Dongfeng BOX was named SGCARMART Electric Hatchback of the Year 2025 and emerged as Singapore's best-selling electric hatchback according to records by Singapore's Land Transport Authority, alongside multiple accolades from OneShift and AutoApp. The Dongfeng 007 also received top honours, including SGCARMART Electric Sedan of the Year 2025 and multiple OneShift awards in the premium EV category.
Dongfeng Motor Corporation, one of China's "Big Four" state-owned automotive enterprises, has been a significant backbone of China's automotive industry, with businesses covering commercial vehicles, passenger vehicles, NEVs, auto assemblies, parts and components, machines and equipment, and other automobile-related products and services.
Carro will continue to open more exclusive Dongfeng showrooms in 2026, including a 3S Dongfeng showroom powered by Carro, which will serve as a one-stop shop for retail, repairs and aftersales solutions.
