DT Dobie in its bid to grow its range of locally assembled vehicles on Monday unveiled the new Volkswagen Tiguan Allspace which is produced at the KVM facility in Thika. The Tiguan Allspace is a 7-seater which is an alternative to the 5-seater Tiguan launched a while ago. “We are committed to further expanding our line of locally assembled cars to grow our brand in the country,” said Matt Olivier, Director Business Development DT Dobie. In 2016 DT Dobie launched the Volkswagen Polo Vivo which is the first locally assembled German car in Kenya. The Ministry of Trade estimates that new vehicles assembled in Kenya will contribute Sh50 billion in taxes per year in the next five years, from the current Sh8 billion.
