Locally, we're a business with national reach and a proud, rich automotive history, and we’ve got the exciting opportunity to represent GM's ongoing presence in Australia & New Zealand. Whether it's the recently announced Cadillac, headlined by the all-electric LYRIQ, the GM Specialty Vehicles venture bringing iconic GM nameplates like Corvette and Silverado to ANZ, our Isuzu Trucks New Zealand portfolio, or the endless possibilities in the Aftersales space, there's plenty to look forward to.
