    GT Force eyes nationwide expansion with 100 new dealerships by 2024

    Mumbai: GT Force, a pioneer in electric two-wheeler manufacturing, has announced its ambitious plan to expand its retail presence across India. By the end of the year 2024, GT Force aims to establish a total of 100 dealership showrooms, each equipped with proper infrastructure adhering to the 3S model, which includes sales, service, and spare parts support. By following this setup, the company is committed to providing service, not only to support its patrons but also to assist consumers of other brands who may face difficulties with after-sales service. This showcases GT’s broader commitment to environmental sustainability within the EV two-wheeler ecosystem.

    Currently, GT Force boasts 35 outlets across multiple states, including Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, Punjab, Haryana, Chhattisgarh, and Delhi-NCR. This existing network provides a strong foundation for the company’s forthcoming expansion into several regions. In Eastern India, the target states are West Bengal, Odisha, Jharkhand, and Bihar. The Northeastern region will see new showrooms in Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, Manipur, Meghalaya, Mizoram, Nagaland, and Tripura. In Western India, all major cities of Maharashtra, including Nagpur, Mumbai, Pune, and Nashik, are part of the expansion plan.

    Commenting on the expansion prospects, GT Force co-founder & COO Rajesh Saitya expressed, “We have meticulously chosen our target geographies after thoroughly understanding these markets and identifying great potential for EV two-wheeler sales. Our new lineup is well-suited to meet the needs of diverse consumers in these regions, which we believe will enhance our brand’s reputation and drive adoption. We are confident that we will develop a holistic network of dealers in the coming months who will play a pivotal role in our growth journey, ensuring broad accessibility and customer satisfaction.”

    GT Force is actively seeking long-term dealer partnerships, with stringent criteria for selection. Prospective dealers are required to uphold high standards, including maintaining well-branded automobile showrooms and fully equipped service centers staffed by skilled technicians. To support their branding efforts, GT Force will provide marketing assistance to dealership stores. Moreover, dealerships can expect attractive margins on both vehicle and spare parts sales, incentivising their commitment to the brand.

    As part of its strategic rebranding initiative, GT Force recently unveiled its latest lineup of electric two-wheelers, catering to both low and high-speed preferences. The GT Vegas, priced at Rs 55,555 (ex-showroom), boasts a 1.5 kWh battery pack, delivering a range of up to 70 km.

Notably, the brand’s flagship model, GT Drive Pro, priced at Rs 84,555, shares similar features and specifications with the One Plus Pro. In addition to this lineup, GT Force is gearing up to introduce a new electric motorcycle in the Indian market. Teased with a glimpse of its headlamp, this upcoming model targets urban riders and promises an impressive range of 130 km on a single charge, with a top speed of 70 km/h.
