Garage Centraal Aruba started at Belgiestraat, with the Mercedes Benz brand, back in 1995. The management at that early stage already crafted a car dealer business able to comply with the demanding requirements of a premium brand such as Mercedes Benz.

With this experience in hand, Garage Centraal made the decision to expand to the general population with the addition of the Daewoo brand of vehicles. It also decided to update their installations by moving to a new location at Sabana Blanco. There, Garage Centraal established itself in a new building, although the dealer at the beginning occupied only a small portion of the total building space, so the construction of the location could be completed without interfering in the operation.

Finally, by 2000, Garage Centraal completed its installations. It also upgraded its offering when it switched from Daewoo to Hyundai, and added the Isuzu brand to its staple. Also recently the decision was made to divest the Mercedes Benz brand to focus all the effort on both Hyundai and Isuzu. 

Furthermore, Garage Centraal Aruba initiated operations of a new dealer, GTi Aruba, created to focus on Volkswagen vehicles, which operations were later integrated within Garage Centraal Aruba itself, effectively adding a third major brand into the dealer.

After that, we incorporated the advanced Leapmotor electric vehicle brand, as we continue to confidently move forward into the future of mobility.

Garage Centraal has kept its evolutionary pace. Just in 2011 a state of the art service facility was completed, providing Garage Centraal with more than enough positions, all with their car elevators and diagnostics systems. It also made service entry points equipped with trenched access for below the vehicles, and an impressive three level indoor warehouse to store the new vehicles indoor. Unlike many other car dealers which will leave the car outdoors, our stock is treated with the utmost care.
