Isuzu Philippines bags top awards in the 2022 I-1 Grand Prix

Isuzu Philippines Corporation (IPC) has once again proven the excellent quality of its aftersales and service program as its team wins 2nd place in Commercial Vehicles (CV) Division and 3rd place in Light Commercial Vehicles (LCV) Division in the recently concluded 17th Isuzu World Technical Competition, also dubbed as the annual “I-1 Grand Prix” (I-1 GP). With the collective efforts and hard work of both IPC Aftersales team and Isuzu Dealers, Isuzu Philippines was able to prevail in the Top 5 of both divisions for 10 years now, bringing home two (2) Champion titles way back in 2015 and 2018.

Isuzu Motors Ltd. (IML) pushed through with the 2022 I-1 GP virtually despite the lingering threat of COVID19 with the goal of continually improving the technical capabilities and enhancing the knowledge and skills of individual mechanics, dealers, and entire Isuzu group. A total of 49 countries and 61 teams participated in the 2022 I-1 GP E-Competition, including Asian countries such as Japan, China, Thailand, etc. and other countries from different continents in the world. Although done virtually, competition was tight among participants as they are being strictly monitored virtually by IML representatives while conducting their exams in their respective headquarters.

Apart from securing the 2nd and 3rd place in CV and LCV Divisions Team Category, respectively, Team Isuzu Philippines also triumphed in the individual category in this year’s e-competition. With Gian Franco Cosico from IPC Training Department as CV Division Head Coach, Arjay Ang-Angan of Isuzu Pasig and Vicente Collantes of Isuzu Alabang won 2nd and 4th place, respectively, in the CV Division Individual Category. For LCV Division, Reynaldo Gepulle of Isuzu Alabang won 3rd place, while Edcel Saluday of Isuzu Pagbilao won 4th place with Carl Edson Lat from IPC Training Department as LCV Division Head Coach.

“We’re very proud of the recognitions given to Team Isuzu Philippines in this year’s I-1 Grand Prix Awards. All these accolades are fruit of hard work and cooperation of IPC Aftersales team and the entire dealer network. We appreciate the initiative and dedication of the team and dealers to enhance our aftersales performance. Given these awards, we assure all customers that they will continue receive the best customer service from all our dealers nationwide.”, IPC President Noboru Murakami said after thanking and congratulating the team and dealers.  

During the virtual awarding ceremony, IPC also received Triple Star Awards, the highest rating granted to Isuzu distributors who have met the aftersales service standards set by IML. IPC’s four (4) consecutive years of attaining Triple Star Awards is yet another testament of the strong commitment of IPC and its entire dealer network to constantly improve its aftersales operations in order to provide the best customer experience.  

Along with these awards, Team Isuzu Philippines also received recognition in I-CLIPS, the new feature of the e-competition that started last year wherein users can show support by liking videos and images posted by the participating distributor country based on the theme of the competition.
