Norton Way Group opens flagship Kia showroom
Norton Way Group has opened its new Kia showroom, located alongside the elevated section of the M4 in Brentford, West London. The flagship retail site, which is also currently the OEM’s largest in Europe, operates on four levels including a 15-bay workshop one level below ground, while the building’s glass frontage faces directly onto the A4 at ground level where the new range of vehicles is displayed. Total operating space is 41,000sq.ft. on less than one acre of land.
Operated by Norton Way, which is part of the Marubeni Group, and branded as GWR Kia, the facility is headed by David Grainger along with 30 sales, service, technical and administrative staff. The building encompasses many zero and low carbon technologies to minimise its impact on its surroundings, and is said to deliver a reduction in CO2 of more than 30 per cent of that required by current building regulations.
