The prizes that can be won include a Huawei Matepad 12x, Huawei GT5 Series, shopping vouchers, and PLN vouchers. Customers are also entitled to a Wall Charger installation for the purchase of a DFSK Gelora E and Seres E1.

To give people peace of mind during their ownership period, PT Sokonindo Automobile also provides after-sales services. Seres E1 customers will be given an 8-year or 120,000 km warranty for the battery, a 3-year or 100,000 km vehicle warranty, and free maintenance for 3 years or 100,000 km.

Meanwhile, for every purchase of a DFSK Gelora E, customers will receive a 3-year or 120,000 km vehicle warranty, and a 5-year or 200,000 km warranty for the battery and EV electrical system.

“This warranty is attached to the car, so customers who buy a used unit can still get this guarantee,” added Doni.
