The new Mazda Distributor in Sri Lanka Colonial Motors embarked on yet another major development for the convenience of Mazda customers. It has commissioned a new showroom at No. 449, Negombo Road, Peliyagoda, with a breathtaking view on the banks of the Kelani River, reassuring its commitment to the Mazda brand in Sri Lanka. This complex will also house the corporate office and the third service centre catering to Mazda customers. The ceremony was held on 11 September with a distinguished gathering of customers and senior management. The company believes in offering the very best facilities to its discerning clientele. The showroom is well-situated with access from the main Negombo road with close proximity from the Wattala exit on the new Katunayake Expressway. The strategic positioning will allow for future growth with the introduction of the circular highway which will connect with all the major highways in Sri Lanka. This will also be a location of convenience for customers in north and central regions. Colonial Motors has achieved many milestones during the first two years of managing the Mazda brand and successfully launched five new models to the Sri Lankan market. Colonial Motors was the first company to launch the new Mazda 6 in South Asia even before some of the established markets in the region. The CX5 and the new Mazda 3 have all been launched by Colonial Motors, which has seen the brand gaining confidence amongst customers. The reintroduction of Mazda has given past customers and future buyers’ confidence in a company with a rich heritage of over 100 years in the automotive industry. The company was also instrumental in launching the new BT 50 pro double cabs which is well suited for the plantation sector. The BT50 pro is a robust vehicle with luxury comforts and equipment levels to compete with the very best in its class and has proved to be a popular choice amongst the plantation companies. The wide range of models currently seen on the roads of Colombo bring a sense of relief to all the Mazda enthusiast who were wondering as to what the future would have been if not for the timely takeover of the brand by Colonial Motors. The strong message Colonials sent with regard to expertise in managing a world class brand with precision technology equipment, superb after sales and high standards of service facilities have been well received by the public which is evident by the presence of many models on the roads. The service teams and spare parts divisions have worked on a strategy to ensure all spare parts are available ex stock ensuring world class service levels and customer satisfaction conforming to Mazda worldwide standards.

The body shop is equipped with the latest body aligning equipment from Finland and has the very latest laser detection to correct every aspect of the vehicle in an unlikely event of an accident. The computerised temperature controlled paint booth ensures that the paint finishes meet the high standards set by Mazda Motor Corporation Japan. With a highly motivated support staff led by the dynamic sales division and Management team the Mazda brand will continue to grow and be well looked after by Colonial Motors in the years to come. The company will ensure that all the latest models can now be seen and experienced at both showrooms situated at 297, Union Place, Colombo 2, and 449, Negombo Road, Peliyagoda.
