DFCC Bank and Prime EV Automobiles Partner to Expand Access to Next-Generation Mobility in Sri Lanka

DFCC Bank has announced a strategic partnership with Prime EV Automobiles, a member of the SENOK Group, to make premium electric and hybrid vehicles more accessible to Sri Lankan customers through tailored financial solutions.

The collaboration is designed to meet the evolving aspirations of middle- and upper-middle-income consumers who are increasingly seeking sustainable, technologically advanced mobility options. By combining Prime EV Automobiles’ globally recognised engineering – including models from the advanced DEEPAL range – with DFCC Bank’s customer-focused financial services, the partnership offers a seamless pathway to vehicle ownership.

As part of the initiative, customers will gain access to specially structured leasing packages from DFCC Bank, featuring reduced interest rates and flexible repayment options tailored to their lifestyle and income patterns. The offer is further enhanced with exclusive benefits, including free vehicle registration, complimentary servicing, and 0% interest instalment plans on motor insurance. Customers will also receive DFCC Credit Cards with waived joining and first-year annual fees, extending lifestyle and financial advantages beyond the purchase.

Aasiri Iddamalgoda, Senior Vice President and Head of Retail & Business Banking at DFCC Bank, said, “This partnership reflects our focus on enabling lifestyles, not just offering credit. By making high-quality electric and hybrid vehicles more accessible, we are helping our customers embrace mobility that is sustainable, future-ready, and aligned with their aspirations. It is about offering confidence, convenience, and value in one complete package.”

Thamali Samarathunga, General Manager – Sales & Marketing, Senok Group,  added, “Through this partnership, we aim to make high-quality, technologically advanced vehicles more accessible to aspirational Sri Lankans, while ensuring a smooth and rewarding experience from purchase to ownership.”

By addressing common barriers such as upfront cost, access to competitive financing, and after-sales support, this partnership brings the next generation of mobility within reach for more Sri Lankans. For DFCC Bank, it represents a growing emphasis on lifestyle-enabling financial solutions, while for Prime EV Automobiles, it strengthens its role in introducing cutting-edge mobility technology to the country.
