Evolution Auto Ltd, with the largest range of EVs, recently announced the official launch of its much-anticipated test drive campaign for Riddara, Sri Lanka’s first-ever Performance Lifestyle Vehicle (PLV). Through a unique fusion of performance, versatility, and sustainability, this campaign allows consumers to witness first-hand a new future of electric mobility. The test drive campaign kicked off on 6 June, at Jayesekara Motors, Kurunegala, and will also be across the country in the future.

Powered by a zero-emission powertrain, Riddara embodies the next generation of intelligent electric vehicles. Engineered for everyday use and designed for the spirit of adventure, the Riddara redefines contemporary mobility by blending in with a variety of lifestyles. The Riddara offers the general crossover/sedan user an opportunity to upgrade to a more vibrant lifestyle with the ability to tackle a rocky terrain and also be more comfortable than a new SUV of the masses.

For thrill-seekers, the Riddara 4WD model is designed to confidently navigate off-road trails and a variety of terrain. It has seven intelligent driving modes that provide the best performance and versatility in a variety of situations. The Riddara 2WD provides the ideal mix of comfort, efficiency, and agility for professionals and families looking for daily usefulness with the possibility of a weekend adventure.

Evolution Auto Group CEO Virann De Zoyza said: “Riddara is more than just a vehicle; it’s a revolutionary change in the way we think about adventure, mobility, and sustainable living. Being the first PLV in Sri Lanka, Riddara epitomises innovation, adaptability, and daring design—elements that appeal to the modern Sri Lankan driver. Customers can really witness this change first-hand thanks to our test drive program.”

The Geely Holding Group, a Fortune 500 global automotive powerhouse with an industry-leading portfolio that includes Volvo, Lotus, Zeekr, Geely Auto, and Lynk & Co., is home to the prestigious Riddara brand. Riddara positions itself as a forward-thinking brand in the evolving outside ecosystem by delivering excellent outdoor intelligent connected experiences by utilising Geely’s state-of-the-art engineering and global R&D network.

With smart, environmentally friendly vehicles that deliver unmatched performance, Evolution Auto, a joint venture between the Atman Group and Sino Lanka, is dedicated to changing the nation’s transportation scene.
