Murgado Automotive Group has officially expanded its footprint in Miami with the grand opening of a cutting-edge Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram dealership.
Located at 701 SW 8th Street in Little Havana, this state-of-the-art facility stands as a testament to the company’s commitment to innovative automotive retailing.
Under the leadership of President and CEO Mario Murgado, the dealership’s development took more than seven years and showcases a distinctive eight-story design.
This impressive 350,000-square-foot structure was brought to life through the architectural vision of Miguel Yelos San Martin from YSM Design.
Features of the new building include a spacious ground-floor retail showroom, a multi-level service department, executive office spaces, and ample vehicle storage.
One of the most striking aspects of the facility is its rooftop event venue, which provides breathtaking views of the Miami skyline and Biscayne Bay.
Murgado expressed his enthusiasm for the project, stating, “This project was a labor of love.
We’re very excited to bring the latest offerings from Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, and Ram to our clients in the Brickell and downtown area.
We have incredible vehicles available, and we offer the latest technology and service facilities.
Whether a customer wants a high-touch sales experience or prefers our door-to-door, never-set-foot-in-the-dealership model, we can deliver.”
The dealership features an impressive 74 service bays and space for parking more than 700 vehicles.
With a total of 107 employees, this new location aims to provide high-quality automotive sales and service roles, furthering Murgado’s vision of creating a central automotive destination in the area.
Plans are also underway for a café and a car museum within the facility to showcase vehicles from Murgado’s personal collection.
The new dealership won’t merely serve as a retail space; it will also function as the corporate headquarters for Murgado Automotive Group.
This will include a full-scale conference center, boardrooms, and executive offices, centralizing the group’s growing operations in one location.
For Mario Murgado, the opening of this dealership is a significant return to his roots.
He began his automotive career in Miami, starting with the acquisition of Honda, GMC, and Pontiac stores back in 2001.
These dealerships laid the groundwork for what has now become the sprawling Murgado Automotive Group Miami campus.
Since those early days, Murgado has expanded rapidly, adding Mazda and a luxury pre-owned vehicle showroom in the same area, marking his deep connection to the local community.
Today, Murgado Automotive Group’s influence extends beyond Miami, operating across several states.
In Florida, the company boasts multiple dealerships, including Brickell Honda, Mazda, Buick & GMC, and Ocean Cadillac.
The group also operates luxury and performance brands, such as Audi, Infiniti, Alfa Romeo, and Maserati in Stuart, Florida.
In Illinois, Murgado operates several dealerships, including Honda Downtown Chicago and Acura Highland Park, among others.
The presence of Murgado Automotive Group is also felt in New Jersey, Virginia, and California, where it runs prestigious locations like Ferrari of Central New Jersey and Mercedes-Benz dealerships.
With a new Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram dealership positioned on one of Miami’s most iconic streets, Murgado Automotive Group strengthens its reputation on a national level while honoring its local heritage.
Murgado concluded, “Our goal was to create something iconic that honors the tradition of this neighborhood while offering the future of automotive retail and service.
I encourage anyone interested in a new or used vehicle to stop by.
And if you’re looking for a one-of-a-kind event space, we’d love to show you what we’ve built – you won’t find a better view in the city.”
