Flow Automotive’s Deep Roots in Charlottesville | Charlottesville News

Flow Automotive just opened its 15th showroom in Charlottesville — a Kia spot on Richmond Road that’s a milestone for a company with deep local roots. Founded 57 years ago by owner Don Flow, who even attended UVA, the dealership lives by its community-first ethos, aiming to be so embedded in the area that locals would feel its absence. Construction, which began in December 2024, faced hurdles, but local general manager Todd Williams — a native of the area — led the charge with grit. Beyond sales, Flow Automotive reinvests in the community through a foundation focused on social, intellectual, aesthetic, political, and economic capital, supporting 70+ local groups and providing 350 jobs. They’re also the official automotive partner for UVA Athletics, embodying the same spirit of teamwork and local pride they’ve built their business on.
