Piaggio expands to Thissamaha­rama

-

With the continuing spiral in demand for Piaggio three-wheelers, Associated Motorways (Pvt) Limited (AMW) recently added a new showroom at Thissamaha­rama to its island-wide network of fully-fledged, modern showrooms.

The latest Piaggio showroom is situated at No. 121/A Kachcheriy­agama Road, Thissamaha­rama. It was ceremonial­ly opened by Amitha Gamage, Sales Manager (Piaggio), AMW. Harsha Rodrigo, Manager-network Developmen­t and Marketing, Kasun Fernando-assistant Area Manager and a large number of special invitees, customers and well-wishers attended the opening ceremony.

Speaking about the opening of the Tissamahar­ama new showroom, Suneth Sudasinghe, General Manager (Piaggio and Eicher) AMW said that there is a big demand for Piaggio diesel three-wheelers from all parts of Sri Lanka. He said that AMW is taking steps to open new showrooms in all key towns in Sri Lanka for the convenienc­e of customers who can inspect and purchase Piaggio threewheel­ers within the areas they reside in. As part of this expansion drive, AMW has already opened Piaggio showrooms in the key towns of Kurunegala, Ratnapura, Avissawell­a, Kandy, Anuradhapu­ra, Badulla, Ampara, Nuwara Eliya, Matara, Negombo, Batticaloa, Dambulla and Gampaha. At these showrooms, customers can inspect and purchase Piaggio three-wheelers either on a cash basis or under a leasing facility. The prime objective of AMW is to offer customers the opportunit­y to inspect and purchase Piaggio three-wheelers within the areas they live in. To meet this objective, AMW has made plans to open many more new fully-fledged, modern showrooms in various other parts of the country this year.

“We are not only expanding our existing network of showrooms but also adding more value and strengthen­ing the network of authorized Piaggio service and spares agents who provide the vital after-sales service and accessorie­s to our customers,” Suneth Sudasinghe said. At present, there is an island-wide network of more than 200 authorized after-sales service agents and 150 authorized spare parts agents.

Some of the salient features of Piaggio three-wheelers are fuel efficiency- they can run 38 kilometers per liter, capable of carrying a load of 650 kg, low maintenanc­e cost (Rs.2.10 per kilometer), comprehens­ive after-sales service and the availabili­ty of ample spares. For commercial purposes, Piaggio three-wheelers can also be provided according to the specificat­ions and requiremen­ts of the business venture concerned.
