~VTK Automobiles Pvt. Ltd. Opens its second 3S Jeep brand showroom on OMR~
Chennai | October 22, 2021 – Iconic SUV manufacturer Jeep, today, inaugurated its
second brand showroom on OMR in Sholinganallur, Chennai. The new brand Jeep sales and service operation, VTK Automobiles Pvt. Ltd. is a 3S facility spread across 16,500 square-feet and has a 4000 square-feet, large eight-car display that will
house the entire Jeep SUV range.
VTK’s second 3S Jeep sales and service is also Brand Jeep’s sixth retail showroom in
the state of Tamil Nadu. Other sales and service facilities are located in Salem (1S),
Coimbatore (1S), Trichy (3S) and Madurai (1S).
Inaugurating the new 3S Jeep Brand facility, Nipun Mahajan – Head of Jeep India
said, “The state of Tamil Nadu accounts for nearly 7% of Jeep India’s national sales
and Chennai city contributes a lion’s share to Jeep brand’s performance. Jeep is on a
progressive growth path in India, having recorded an impressive 144% year-onyear growth, this year. The locally-assembled Jeep Wrangler and the made-in-India
Jeep Compass have shown remarkable retail performance in the premium SUV
segments. We will continue this positive momentum through 2021 and continue to
increase our distribution network, which will play a significant role when we launch
new SUVs in premium segments, in 2022.”
The award-winning SUV brand clocked 13% increase in growth in September 2021
over the previous month and is on a great momentum. This festive season, Jeep
Financial Services is offering a more attractive EMI of INR 21,111 for customers
aspiring to buy a Jeep Compass. Brand Jeep’s financial offers have been especially
popular with new Jeep buyers, this year, and have proven instrumental in the
healthy progression of sales in the previous two quarters.
Dealer Principal, VTK Automobiles Pvt. Ltd., Sree Venkata Teja Kethineni said, “Jeep
India has shown impressive growth this year despite the challenging market
conditions. New SUVs coming to Jeep showrooms next year means that we have
to start expanding our retail operations in Chennai. I am pleased to open our
second 3S Jeep sales and service facility in a prime locality in the city that will offer
a premium experience to customers. We have a number of new vehicle deliveries
today on this auspicious day. VTK’s growing presence in Chennai gives us the opportunity to gain more market share in Tamil Nadu.”
Brand Jeep now has over 65 sales and service outlets across India, including the
second 3S facility from VTK Automobiles in Chennai city.
Jeep India has been actively engaging its customers and local communities in
spreading the positive word about its brand and DNA across the country by
organizing adventure driving experiences like Jeep Trails (for Jeep SUV owners) and
Camp Jeep (for prospects). These two initiatives are also undertaken by Jeep brand
dealers across the country across multiple locations.
Jeep India recently launched its flagship CSR initiative called Mission One Earth
under which 1500 kilograms of plastic waste was collected by Jeep SUV owners
and local communities in the Ladakh Himalayan range. This plastic waste will be
recycled in reverse vending machines and will be converted into environmentfriendly Jeep merchandise, which will be sent to people who have contributed to
reducing the plastic waste.
Jeep India plans to spread the message of Responsible Adventure to every part of
the country through its Dealer network and 50,000-plus customer base.
Therefore, in the coming months, every Jeep dealership in India, including those in
Tamil Nadu, will have an element of Mission One Earth that will help spread the
message.
