In a significant move to capture Punjab's growing electric vehicle market, Japanese EV manufacturer Terra Motors has launched its flagship high-speed L5 electric auto showroom in Amritsar. The new facility, established in partnership with local dealer AP Motor & Finance, provides a full sales and service experience, allowing customers to explore, test ride, and purchase Terra's latest models.
The brand's reputation for reliable performance and strong value, built over a decade in the three-wheeler sector, was evident in the overwhelming response to the inauguration. The dealer partnership was secured due to competitive margins, rising consumer demand for EV financing and Terra's proven track record as a top-selling e-rickshaw manufacturer in India. This entry into Amritsar represents a key milestone in Terra Motors' national growth strategy, following recent launches in Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh, as it aims for a tenfold expansion in the coming years.
The flagship Kyoro+ model is central to this expansion, promoted as a compelling choice for drivers seeking higher earnings. It boasts a segment-leading range of 200 km per charge, a robust build, a five-year warranty, and an attractive starting on-road price of INR 366,000, supported by a low down payment financing scheme.
Go Suzuki, Managing Director, Terra Motors India, said, “Punjab is a key market for us, and partnering with a trusted dealer here will help bring top-quality electric autos to local customers. Our goal is to be present in all major cities with Terra e-autos, and we’re inviting experienced EV dealers to partner with us."
