Carter Myers Automotive

Carter Myers Automotive CMA is a family & employee-owned business serving Virginia since 1924. CMA started as Stockdell-Myers Hardware in Petersburg, Virginia.

We specialized in machine parts and built cars from kits to sell through the store. In 1924, once the assembly line had changed the industry, we reincorporated as Petersburg Motor Company. Our first President was H. Carter Myers and our first car brand was Ford. Today, the 4th generation of the Myers family is our President and CEO. Liza Borches followed in her father's, grandfather's, and great g

randfather's footsteps. CMA now has 20 locations selling 18 franchises and thousands of new and used vehicles in stock. We serve all of Virginia with locations in Charlottesville, Staunton, Wi******er, Williamsburg, and the Richmond market, and the greater Martinsburg, WV area. CMA is also employee-owned. Our associates earn ownership in our company through an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP). Fairly unique in our industry, our ESOP has grown through the belief that shared ownership means shared success. Our tagline is "Owners Just Do More!"

Hot-weather EV charging tips!
Summer heat doesn’t mean you should stop charging- it simply means a little planning can help your EV perform at its best:
- Plug in when needed, even on hot days. Your EV’s battery-management system helps regulate battery temperature.
- When possible, schedule charging during the cooler evening or overnight hours.
- Park and charge in the shade or a garage when available.
- For everyday driving, follow your vehicle manufacturer’s recommended charge limit, often around 80%. Save a 100% charge for longer trips and time it close to your departure.
- My favorite feature - Precondition the cabin while your EV is still plugged in. You’ll start your drive comfortably without using as much battery power to cool the vehicle.
At Carter Myers Automotive, our recommendation is that you check your owner’s manual or vehicle app for recommendations specific to your specific EV.
Stay cool and keep moving forward!

A reliable vehicle can mean the difference between simply getting by and moving forward.

Together with Giving Words, CMA set out to help seven single mothers across the communities we call home by providing dependable vehicles—and the opportunity that comes with them.

From the technicians that helped make each car road-ready to the associates who helped bring it all together, we had one goal: moving lives forward. Watch the full story and see what happens when care is put into action.

Over the past month, our team shared what Care Keys means to them.

From being people-first and employee-owned to delivering a fast, friendly, and fair experience, every story pointed back to the same thing: care.

Thank you to everyone who shared a Care Story, liked a post, left a comment, or helped spread the message. These stories remind us that care isn't just a campaign—it's how we do business.

As we head into the Fourth of July weekend, we're proud to be employee-owned, people-first, and built on care.

Happy Fourth of July from Carter Myers Automotive. 🇺🇸

Big smiles powered by the sun ☀️💙

Recently, the team at Colonial Subaru delivered school supplies to a local elementary classroom and brought along a fun surprise: solar-powered car kits for every student.

The students snapped on the final pieces, connected the solar panels, and raced outside to watch their creations come to life in the sunshine. Moments like these remind us that making a difference doesn’t always require a grand gesture—sometimes it starts with a small act of care and a lot of smiles.
