Wearnes Automotive has announced that construction of a new eight-storey Automotive Centre is expected to be completed in the first quarter of 2019.

Wearnes recently celebrated 112 years of rich heritage and service excellence. It has seen its business continue to thrive in Singapore and with the expansive new tower, it will double its service capacity and looks set to be a hub in Asia for rare and vintage car collectors.

Totalling over 200,000 sqft, the building will be located at the prime automotive belt, alongside Wearnes' existing showrooms at 45 Leng Kee Road. It is slated to include workshops, boutique car displays, conference facilities and exclusive club lounges, designed for a panoramic view of rare and vintage cars showcased within its new climate-controlled bonded storage areas.

One unique feature of the eight-storey tower is a state-of-the-art, climate-controlled gallery with bonded facilities - the first of its kind of this size in Singapore that allows high-end luxury car collectors to store their rare, limited edition and classic cars in an exclusive and secure environment.

Located on the top floor, the gallery will be integrated with a club lounge that features conferencing and meeting facilities and is designated to be Wearnes' main meeting area. Overlooking the interior of the building's conference facilities, the car storage solution will cater to increasing regional demand.
