The dealership is relocating existing operations on Gallatin Pike in Madison to a new site off West Main Street and Center Point Road South, just inside Hendersonville's city limits.

The new location allows Rhythm to expand and to accommodate increased sales that now are around 350 vehicles per month, according to General Manager Ryan Duncan.

The location was picked “for its size, for our expansion (and) growth plans and where we feel future growth is headed giving us more exposure,” Duncan said.

The 54,767 square foot building that was approved will provide the dealership approximately three times the number of service bay space. Rhythm will go from about 450 vehicle spaces to about 1,100 spots. The building also will be used for sales and parts, Duncan said.

The site is just over 18 acres, according to plans submitted to the city.

The dealer now has about 105 employee positions that will move to the new facility. Duncan expects the dealership to add jobs as well.
