Profitable ARCO Gas, AMPM C-Store & Car Wash – Prime I-15 Freeway Exposure
Location: Signalized intersection of Interstate 15 & Dos Lagos Drive, Corona, CA
Rare ARCO/AMPM fuel station and convenience store with freeway visibility and access, prime commuter access off surrounding streets, and strong long-term growth drivers. This premier site features a modern AMPM C-store, a detached 44-ft automatic car wash tunnel, and a state-of-the-art fueling canopy with 16 fueling positions (8 dispensers) serving both gasoline and diesel.
Situated on 1.5+ acres with direct visibility from I-15 and an approximately 65-ft freeway pylon sign, this property benefits from some of the heaviest traffic volumes in the Inland Empire. Surrounding developments—including The Crossings and The Shops at Dos Lagos—as well as rapid residential expansion, position this site to capture both commuter and local demand.
