Here’s what Citroën India have to say about expanding its network to 126 POS&S:
Citroën India, stepping up on its promise towards enhancing customer accessibility and brand reach in India, continues to expand its presence across the country with the launch of its 126th Point of Sales and Service in Chennai. Driven by the rollout of the Citroën 2.0 – ‘Shift Into The New’ strategy, the team is working on a long-term roadmap to deepen localisation, expand the dealer and service footprint, and elevate customer-centric product and ownership experiences across India. The resultant growth has been supported by continued product innovation, expanded export programs, and strengthened engineering and software capabilities as the quarter progresses. The renewed focus on India-centric products, an expanded customer ecosystem, and strengthened manufacturing capabilities has accelerated Citroën’s domestic growth.
The new 3S facility is an extension of Citroën’s existing partnership with VTK Automobiles, a long-standing franchise partner of Citroën in Chennai. VTK Automobiles currently operates four Citroën touchpoints in the city, including showrooms at OMR and Nungambakkam, and workshops at OMR and Kattupakkam. Strategically located at Chitlapakkam near Chrompet, the facility has been established to increase Citroën’s coverage in the city and improve accessibility for both sales and aftersales customers. The new showroom provides an immersive, future-forward brand environment, where customers can explore, customize, and experience both brands in a single, unified space that ensures consistency across sales and after-sales services.
Speaking at the inauguration of the 126th POS&S, Shailesh Hazela, CEO and Managing Director, Stellantis India, said,
“The expansion of the Stellantis network further with the VTK dealership in Chennai marks another important step in Citroën & Jeep India’s network growth strategy. Chennai is a key market for us, and this upgraded facility will enable us to serve our customers better with a seamless sales and ownership experience. Aligned with our Citroën 2.0 strategy, we remain committed to strengthening our dealer partnerships and building a robust, customer-centric network across the country.”
Commenting on the development, Kumar Priyesh, Director Automotive Brands, said,
“We have grown our network by almost 48.6% since we announced the Citroën 2.0 strategy and have been able to expand our operations in different parts of the country, adding Tier-II and Tier-III locations while further strengthening our presence in Metro and Tier-I cities. Through Project Visitar, our Network Expansion Program, and expansion into new geographies, we added over 43 POS in the last six months and are already in advanced stages to start additional operations in the North, West, and Eastern parts of the country. We expect to close the year with 135 POS for Citroën.”
Sree Venkata Teja Kethineni, Dealer Principal, VTK Automobiles, said,
“We’re happy to partner in this pivotal shift in automotive retail, proudly representing Jeep and Citroën. Our dual-brand strategy empowers us to deliver a truly elevated and distinctive experience—whether customers seek rugged performance or refined sophistication. With passion, professionalism, and personalized care at the core, our team is committed to exceeding expectations and upholding the global standards these iconic brands represent.”
More than just a dealership, the Stellantis Brand House is a holistic automotive destination. It integrates cutting-edge infrastructure, interactive digital tools including advanced diagnostics, and a fully equipped service center. The staff, trained by both Jeep® and Citroën, is focused on delivering exceptional product knowledge and support to customers at every stage of their journey.
