Two of the UK’s fastest-growing automotive retail brands, HiQ Tyres & Autocare and Carsa, are expanding their partnership with the launch of two new state-of-the-art autocare centres in Bolton and Mountsorrel.
These new locations mark another significant step in the brands’ shared strategy to expand their footprint across the UK, with further openings already in the pipeline.
The expansion follows the successful launch of the first two dual-branded sites in Cannock and Halesowen in 2023. The collaboration integrates vehicle sales, servicing, tyre fitting, and MOT testing under one roof, making the car ownership experience more seamless for customers.
By leveraging HiQ’s trusted nationwide servicing expertise and Carsa’s rapidly growing dealership model, the partnership is creating a more convenient, all-in-one solution for motorists.
HiQ, backed by Goodyear, operates a network of 190 autocare centres across the UK and is well-regarded for its professional and customer-focused approach. Meanwhile, Carsa, founded in 2020, has expanded rapidly, now boasting ten locations offering high-quality pre-owned vehicles.
The expansion strengthens HiQ’s presence in the UK market, bringing its trusted vehicle servicing and maintenance expertise to more customers. For Carsa, the partnership enhances its aftersales offering, improving customer retention and long-term brand loyalty.
Motorists benefit from:
✅ One-stop service – Buy, service, and maintain vehicles in a single location.
✅ Expert servicing – Access HiQ’s professional tyre and maintenance services.
✅ Convenience & efficiency – Integrated approach streamlining the ownership experience.
By combining vehicle sales and servicing at the same site, customers gain increased confidence in aftersales support, a critical factor in long-term customer satisfaction.
Craig Sprigmore, Goodyear Retail Director UK & Ireland, commented on the growing success of the partnership:
“We’re delighted to see the HiQ and Carsa partnership gaining momentum with the opening of two new stores in Bolton and Mountsorrel. The success of our first dual-branded sites proved the value of integrating vehicle sales with expert servicing, so we’re excited to bring this winning formula to even more customers. This is just the beginning of a nationwide rollout that will redefine the automotive retail experience.”
Visham Joshi, Head of Service at Carsa, added:
“HiQ’s branding, technology, and customer-first approach makes it the perfect brand partner for Carsa. These new locations represent another step toward our goal of providing motorists with a fully integrated, high-quality buying and aftersales experience. We’re thrilled with the progress so far and look forward to expanding even further.”
With more locations already in development, the HiQ-Carsa partnership is on track for a nationwide expansion, reshaping the way UK motorists buy and maintain their vehicles.
By prioritising efficiency, trust, and customer satisfaction, both brands are set to offer a next-generation retail and aftersales experience across the country.
