Mikano Motors joined key stakeholders across Nigeria’s automotive, financial, and transport sectors at the LCCI Automobile & Allied Services Group Symposium in Victoria Island, Lagos
Held at the Henry Fajemirokun Hall of the Lagos Chamber of Commerce and Industry, the symposium brought industry leaders together to explore an important question: “From Subsidy to Credit: Can Vehicle Financing Replace Fuel Subsidy as Nigeria’s Mobility Equalizer?”
The discussion was timely Mobility affects access to work, education, healthcare, trade and economic opportunity. As transportation and vehicle ownership costs continue to place pressure on individuals and businesses, Nigeria needs practical solutions that make mobility more accessible, reliable and sustainable.
For us at Mikano Motors, participating in the symposium was more than an opportunity to display the Changan UNI S It was an opportunity to demonstrate how the right vehicle can support the real mobility needs of individuals, businesses and fleet operators.
Visitors engaged with the vehicle and discussed issues that matter when making a mobility decision, including operational efficiency and everyday usability; reliability and performance in demanding conditions; total cost of ownership, including maintenance and fuel or energy consumption; suitability for business, fleet and transport operations; and ownership, financing and after-sales support
These conversations reinforced an important point, a vehicle should not be judged only by its appearance or purchase price It should also be assessed by how effectively it performs in the real lives and businesses of its users.
The future of mobility in Nigeria will require a balance between innovation, affordability and access New vehicle technologies and improved designs can contribute to better mobility outcomes, but innovation will have limited impact if customers cannot conveniently acquire, operate and maintain the vehicles being offered. This is why collaboration among automotive companies, financial institutions, insurers, policymakers, fleet operators and customers is so important.
A stronger vehicle-financing ecosystem must be supported by realistic repayment structures, suitable vehicle choices, transparent ownership costs, dependable servicing and responsive customer support These elements can help individuals and businesses make better-informed decisions and plan for mobility over the long term.
Our participation reflects Mikano Motors’ commitment to supporting the development of a stronger mobility ecosystem in Nigeria We remain focused on providing vehicles that respond to real customer and business needs, communicating ownership and operating considerations clearly, supporting conversations around accessible and responsible vehicle financing, delivering dependable after sales support, and building partnerships that make mobility more productive and sustainable.
We sincerely appreciate the questions, feedback and conversations shared during the event They provided valuable insight into what customers, businesses and industry stakeholders expect from the future of mobility.
The symposium has ended, but the work continues The challenge before the industry is not simply whether vehicle financing can replace fuel subsidy. It is how we can work together to make mobility more accessible, dependable and economically productive.
