In the wake of surging demand for New Energy Vehicles (NEVs) in Sri Lanka, BYD and its authorized distributor John Keells CG Auto have opened the country's largest purpose-built body shop and accident repair centre dedicated exclusively to BYD, and their premium sub-brand DENZA.

Located in Seeduwa, the new facility has taken over the former Formula World site and represents a significant milestone in BYD and DENZA’s ongoing commitment to strengthening their after-sales infrastructure. Capable of accommodating over 100 vehicles simultaneously, the Seeduwa Body Shop substantially increases repair capacity and alleviates congestion at existing service points across the Western Province.

The facility is strategically designed as a dedicated, high-throughput solution for collision repairs and complex bodywork, ensuring BYD and DENZA customers have access to specialized accident repair services with faster turnaround times. This expansion addresses the growing need for efficient body shop services as BYD's vehicle population continues to expand rapidly across Sri Lanka.

"Our Seeduwa Body Shop represents a major step forward in our after-sales expansion," John Keells CG Auto Chief Executive Officer, Charith Panditharatne said. "With these investments, we aim to significantly expand service capacity, improve service consistency, and ensure JKCG customers receive seamless support with faster turnaround times for accident repairs and bodywork."

The opening of the Seeduwa facility reflects BYD's conscious effort to respond to customer needs more effectively and ensure service standards align with the brand's growing market presence. As the largest dedicated body shop for BYD vehicles in Colombo, it strengthens the overall ownership experience and reinforces the brand's commitment to long-term customer satisfaction.

The Seeduwa Body Shop opening is part of BYD's broader after-sales expansion, which includes the recent launch of its largest service centre in Wattala, supporting the full range of BYD and DENZA passenger vehicles.
