WLR Automotive Group proudly announces the groundbreaking of its newest Auto Spa Express location in East York, Pennsylvania. This expansion reflects the company’s continued investment in the York community and builds upon its growing presence in the market, where WLR currently operates both an Auto Spa Express and The Lube Center.
WLR Automotive Group currently operates a highly successful and popular Auto Spa Express on the west side of York. Due to strong customer demand and continued membership growth in the area, the company identified East York as a natural next step to better serve local drivers.
“We have been honored by the tremendous support we have received from the York community,” said Randall S. Simpson, President & CEO of WLR Automotive Group. “The enthusiasm surrounding our west-side location reaffirmed our commitment to continue investing in York. Breaking ground on our East York Auto Spa Express represents growth, but more importantly, it reflects our dedication to serving this community. We are excited to bring our signature express experience to even more drivers and look forward to building lasting relationships in East York.”
The East York Auto Spa Express will showcase WLR’s signature express wash experience, featuring a modern, easy-to-navigate wash tunnel engineered for efficiency and performance. In addition to a fast, high-quality wash, customers will have access to complimentary amenities, including microfiber towels, vacuums, air hoses, and mat cleaners, enhancing convenience and providing everything needed for a thorough clean.
Construction is now underway, with the location expected to open in early Fall 2026. The company looks forward to sharing updates with the community along the way.
