How Webb Auto Group Builds Local Trust Around Vehicles Made Around the World

A Chevrolet Silverado might roll off a line in Fort Wayne, Indiana. A Hyundai Palisade Hybrid may trace its engineering back to South Korea. A Genesis GV80 carries the same global pedigree. Wherever a vehicle is built, the ownership experience that matters most happens close to home — and that’s the role Webb Auto Group plays for drivers across Northwest Indiana and Chicagoland. This guide looks at how Webb Auto Group’s six dealerships turn globally engineered vehicles into a genuinely local ownership experience.

Why do so many vehicles have global roots?

Modern vehicles are the product of global engineering, sourcing, and manufacturing networks that stretch across multiple countries. That’s true across the industry, and it’s true of the brands represented at Webb Auto Group’s six dealerships.

What varies by model and model year is exactly where final assembly happens — and Webb Auto Group’s team can walk you through what applies to the specific vehicle you’re considering.

Where are the brands at Webb Auto Group built?

Chevrolet, Hyundai, and Genesis each combine domestic and international manufacturing depending on the vehicle. General Motors operates major U.S. assembly plants that build many Chevrolet trucks and SUVs, while Hyundai and Genesis draw on both South Korean engineering heritage and, for some models, North American assembly.

• Chevrolet — a General Motors brand with substantial U.S.-based assembly across several states
• Hyundai — global engineering rooted in South Korea, with select models assembled in the U.S.
• Genesis — Hyundai Motor Group’s luxury brand, sharing that same global engineering base

Exact sourcing varies by model year and trim, so exact plant details are best confirmed model-by-model with your Webb Auto Group sales team.

What does “locally serviced” actually mean?

“Locally serviced” means that no matter where a vehicle was engineered or assembled, the financing, delivery, maintenance, and ongoing relationship happen at a Webb Auto Group dealership near you. That’s the part of ownership that a factory overseas or out of state can’t provide.

It’s the local advisor who knows your vehicle’s history, the local technician trained on your specific brand, and the local team who answers the phone when you have a question.

Why six dealerships instead of one?

Webb Auto Group operates six dealerships across Northwest Indiana and Chicagoland — Webb Hyundai Highland, Webb Hyundai Merrillville, Webb Chevy Oak Lawn, Webb Chevy Plainfield, and Genesis of Schererville, alongside the group’s corporate presence at WebbCars.com. Having six local rooftops means shoppers have a dedicated, brand-specific team no matter which of these manufacturers they’re considering.

Each dealership focuses on its brand’s specific engineering, technology, and service requirements rather than spreading expertise thin across every make on the market.

How does Webb Auto Group earn local trust?

Local trust is earned through consistency — showing up the same way for sales, financing, and service visit after visit, year after year. Webb Auto Group’s dealerships have built long-standing reputations in their respective communities by being straightforward about what a vehicle is, where it’s built, and what owning it actually involves.

That consistency matters more, not less, as vehicles themselves become more globally sourced and more complex.

What does the buying process look like locally?

The buying process at any Webb Auto Group dealership starts with a conversation about what you need, followed by a test drive, a transparent walkthrough of financing options, and a straightforward trade-in evaluation if applicable. None of that requires you to think about international supply chains — that’s the dealership’s job, not yours.

Your local Webb Auto Group team is there to translate the vehicle’s engineering and features into what actually matters for how you’ll drive it every day.

How does local service back up a global vehicle?

Every Webb Auto Group dealership maintains a service center staffed with technicians trained on that specific brand, using genuine manufacturer parts. That local service backbone is what keeps a globally engineered vehicle running exactly as designed, mile after mile, for as long as you own it.

Routine maintenance intervals and specific service needs vary by model year, so your service advisor is always the best source for what your particular vehicle needs next.

How do I choose the right Webb rooftop for my brand?

Start with the brand you’re interested in, then visit the Webb Auto Group dealership that specializes in it: Webb Hyundai Highland or Webb Hyundai Merrillville for Hyundai, Webb Chevy Oak Lawn or Webb Chevy Plainfield for Chevrolet, or Genesis of Schererville for Genesis. Each rooftop can also help point you toward a sister dealership if another brand is a better fit.
