Bowker Motor Group to open Lepas dealerships in Blackburn and Preston
Bowker Motor Group is to represent Lepas in Blackburn and Preston this summer with a model range focused on hybrid, plug-in hybrid and electric vehicles.
First to launch will be the Lepas L8 premium SUV followed by the L6 midsize SUV and the city L4 SUV.
Bowker Lepas Preston will launch from a temporary site on Channel Way while plans progress for a permanent location.
In Blackburn, Bowker will establish a new showroom to support the introduction of the brand.
John Nichol, head of business, said: “It’s always exciting to be involved in the launch of a completely new automotive brand.
“Lepas brings something different to the market, with electrified vehicles, distinctive design and real elegance.
“We’re looking forward to welcoming customers to both locations and introducing them to the brand.”
Prices for the L8 PHEV Essence begin at £34,900 RRP on-the-road, while the L8 PHEV Elevate starts at £37,900 RRP one-the-road.
Bowker’s Lepas moves follow in the wake of the expansion of its relationship with Chery International through the opening of a Chery dealership in Preston.
