The dealerships sell some 30 different brands of US and foreign new and used vehicles. (Imports account for about 85% of sales.) Asbury also offers parts, service, and collision repair, as well as financing and insurance. The company exited the heavy truck business in 2011.

Raised on a farm near the small community of Palmer Springs, Virginia, Rick Hendrick worked on and raced cars under the watchful eye of his father, "Papa Joe." After high school, he pursued a co-op work-study program with North Carolina State University and Westinghouse Electric Company in Raleigh, North Carolina.
While in Raleigh, Hendrick opened a small used-car lot with established dealer Mike Leith. Its success convinced Leith to name him general sales manager of his new-car import operation at the age of 23.
Founding:
In 1976, Hendrick sold off his assets to purchase a struggling franchise in Bennettsville, South Carolina, thus becoming, at 26, the youngest Chevrolet dealer in the United States. His influence sparked a dramatic sales increase as the once troubled location soon became the region's most profitable.
These triumphs paved the way for Hendrick to purchase Charlotte, North Carolina-based City Chevrolet. Under Hendrick's leadership, the dealership became the No. 1 volume Chevrolet franchise throughout North Carolina and South Carolina.
In late 1979, despite strong in-market competition, Hendrick built the first free-standing Honda dealership in Columbia, South Carolina. The location was a showcase for Honda, promoting it as the manufacturer's premiere dealership on the east coast and a future facility benchmark.
Bennettsville's success was also a precursor to Hendrick Automotive Group, a company that would be built on the winning foundation Hendrick established during this period of time. A culture built on a strong set of core values: teamwork through trust and respect; integrity; commitment to customer enthusiasm; passion for winning; accountability at all levels. servant leadership, and commitment to continuous improvement.
Current State:
Hendrick Automotive Group generated $9.5 billion in revenue in 2018 after selling more than 206,000 vehicles and servicing 2.5 million cars and trucks.
CarShop, formerly CarSense, is a whole new way to buy a pre-owned car. It’s completely free of the usual haggling, nagging uncertainties, and maddening frustrations that ruin the pleasure of buying a car. You'll notice the difference the minute you set foot on a CarShop lot. Salespeople don't pester you, because they're not paid on a commission basis. There's no tension. Our best price - often hundreds lower than Kelley Blue Book - is already on the sticker. Our seven CarShop company values are what makes CarShop unique. These values are so important to us, that we proudly display our “values banners” in our repair area. All of our employees pass through the repair area about 30 times a day, and the values banners serve as a constant reminder for us to uphold them. Second, our customers can see them and gauge for themselves whether or not we are serving them in accordance with our values. This presents us with a great challenge – to live and serve in accordance with our CarShop values.
