Seylan Bank partners with GS EVO Motors Limited to introduce dedicated EV leasing facility

Seylan Bank PLC has entered a strategic partnership with GS EVO Motors Limited, a company engaged in importing electric vehicles (EVs) to Sri Lanka, to introduce a dedicated leasing facility for customers purchasing EVs.

The collaboration enables customers to access specialised leasing solutions designed to support the growing demand for sustainable mobility in the country.

The partnership was formalised through a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), establishing an exclusive leasing arrangement for customers purchasing electric vehicles through GS EVO Motors.

The initiative aims to simplify the EV purchasing process by combining vehicle availability with structured financing solutions, competitive interest rates, and streamlined approvals.

Through this facility, Seylan Bank will offer leasing options with repayment periods of up to seven years. Customers may also benefit from fast-track approval within 24 hours, allowing quicker access to EV ownership while supporting Sri Lanka’s transition toward environmentally responsible transport.

Seylan Bank’s leasing facility will offer interest rates starting from 10% (A.I.R), supported by a Dedicated Leasing Team that provides personalised assistance throughout the leasing process.

Customers will also receive doorstep support and complimentary consultation services, ensuring guidance from initial application through documentation and post-approval procedures.

With Seylan Bank’s island-wide branch network, customers across the country will be able to access the leasing facility and receive support at every stage of the process.

The initiative reflects the Bank’s broader commitment to promoting sustainable transport through accessible green financing solutions.

Commenting on the partnership, Asiri Abhayaratne, Assistant General Manager – Marketing & Sales, Seylan Bank, stated,

“Electric vehicles are becoming an important part of the future of mobility.

Through this partnership with GS EVO Motors, Seylan Bank is providing customers with a practical financing solution that enables faster access to EV ownership while supporting environmentally responsible transportation.”

Priyantha Perera, Chief Executive Officer of GS EVO Motors further noted,
