Car Pros Automotive Group has completed a $2.25 million expansion of its service center at Car Pros Kia Moreno Valley, doubling its service capacity and further strengthening the dealership’s role as one of the top-performing Kia retailers in the nation.

The 7,500-square-foot addition increases the facility’s service bays from 13 to 27, making it the largest Kia service center in the Inland Empire. With the upgrade, the dealership can now handle more than 100 service appointments per day. This more than doubles its previous capacity, while adding new employees to support the growing number of Kia drivers across Riverside County.

The expanded facility also enhances service for hybrid and electric vehicles, adding dedicated quick-lube lanes, expanded express service capabilities, and additional Kia Certified Master Technicians with EV expertise. These improvements will allow the dealership to offer faster turnaround times and next-day appointments for most routine services.

“Moreno Valley continues to attract major investments that create jobs and improve services for our residents,” said Mayor Ulises Cabrera. “This expansion at Car Pros Kia Moreno Valley reflects the strength of our local economy and the confidence businesses have in our community’s future.”

“I am proud that we are celebrating the expansion of another service-oriented business within the City,” said Mayor Pro Tem and District 3 Councilmember Erlan Gonzalez. “This is impactful growth that benefits residents here in this district and throughout all of Moreno Valley.”

To celebrate its connection to the community, the dealership also unveiled a large-scale mural on the exterior of the new service center created by Moreno Valley-born artist Patrick Barwinski. The impressive mural, titled Joy Ride, welcomes visitors to the growing automotive hub.

Since opening in March 2022, Car Pros Kia Moreno Valley has quickly become one of the fastest-growing Kia dealerships in the country. In 2025, the dealership achieved record-breaking sales and ranked among the top Kia retailers in the United States, reflecting strong customer demand and the dealership’s expanding role in serving drivers throughout the region.
