At Srikantha Motors, our legacy is defined by unwavering trust, superior performance, and an unrelenting drive to deliver only the finest in automotive excellence. Today, we are proud to unveil a new era in braking technology — Seiken Brake Pads — now available exclusively through Sri Lanka’s most trusted name in auto parts.

Seiken Brake Pads are not just another replacement part. They are the embodiment of advanced Japanese engineering — where every compound, every contour, and every test is purpose-built to elevate your driving experience. Designed with a next-generation ceramic formulation, these brake pads offer quiet, consistent, and confident braking, no matter the road, no matter the journey.

When it comes to safety, compromise is not an option — and with Seiken, compromise is never necessary.

When the skies open and the monsoon rains begin to fall across Sri Lanka, one simple component becomes the frontline of your driving safety — your wiper blades. Often overlooked until it’s too late, these slim strips of rubber determine how clearly you see the road, pedestrians, and vehicles during heavy showers. At Srikantha Motors, we believe visibility equals safety — and that begins with choosing the right wipers.

Unlike tires or brakes, wiper blades don’t make noise when they fail. But the consequences of worn-out wipers — blurry windshields, streaks, or smears — can be just as dangerous, especially during a sudden downpour on a busy Colombo road or a misty drive through the hill country.

Many Sri Lankan drivers delay replacing wipers until they’re completely unusable. This puts you, your passengers, and everyone else on the road at risk.

As the global quest for sustainable and clean energy sources intensifies, automotive giants are exploring innovative solutions to reduce our carbon footprint. One such pioneering effort is Toyota’s vision of a hydrogen combustion engine, a technology that promises to revolutionize the automotive industry. In this scenic exploration, we will delve into the workings of hydrogen combustion engines, critically compare them with electric vehicles (EVs), and examine their impact, particularly in the Sri Lankan context. We will also highlight Srikantha Motors Lanka (Private) Limited’s commitment to promoting this groundbreaking technology.

Toyota has long been at the forefront of automotive innovation, and its commitment to hydrogen combustion engines is a testament to its vision for a sustainable future. Unlike traditional internal combustion engines that rely on fossil fuels, hydrogen combustion engines utilize hydrogen gas as fuel. This process results in the production of water vapor as the primary emission, significantly reducing [...]

Sri Lanka’s automotive industry is experiencing significant transformations, driven by policy changes, growth in local manufacturing, and international collaborations.

In a notable policy shift, the Sri Lankan government announced the phased lifting of the temporary suspension on motor vehicle imports, effective October 1, 2024. This decision aims to rejuvenate the automotive sector and address the challenges of an aging vehicle fleet. The phased approach includes:

• Stage 1 (October 1, 2024): Resumption of imports for public passenger transport vehicles and special-purpose vehicles.
• Stage 2 (December 1, 2024): Lifting of restrictions on commercial or goods transportation vehicles.
• Stage 3 (February 1, 2025): Permission for the importation of personal usage motor vehicles, including cars, vans, SUVs, and pickups.

This strategic easing is anticipated to inject vitality into the auto industry and enhance government revenue.

Sri Lanka’s local vehicle assembly and automotive [...]

At Srikantha Motors, we believe true performance lies in the details — and nowhere is that more evident than in your vehicle’s braking system. For decades, we’ve earned the trust of drivers by offering only the most dependable parts, and among them, Seiken brake rotors have quickly become a standout choice.

Engineered in Japan to meet the highest standards, Seiken rotors are known for their durability, heat resistance, and smooth, vibration-free performance. Whether you’re navigating city traffic or cruising at high speeds, they deliver consistent, confident stopping power.

But the best systems are never made of one part alone.

We’re excited to share that the Seiken range will soon be expanding — offering customers a more complete solution for their braking needs. While we’re keeping the details under wraps for now, what’s coming is designed to work in perfect harmony with the rotors you already trust.

It’s not just an addition — it’s a step [...]

Understanding Wheel Hub Oil Seals and the Importance of Quality Sealing Technology

In automotive systems, wheel hub oil seals play a vital yet often overlooked role in ensuring the longevity and efficiency of wheel assemblies. These seals are specifically designed to retain lubrication within the wheel hub bearings while preventing the entry of contaminants such as water, dust, and debris.

A failure in this component can lead to a cascade of mechanical issues — from worn-out bearings and increased friction to overheating and ultimately, costly repairs. That’s why selecting a high-quality oil seal is not just a matter of preference but a matter of engineering reliability.

Wheel hub seals operate in a challenging environment. They must withstand heat generated by high-speed wheel rotation, pressure from bearing loads, and constant exposure to road elements. Advanced sealing technology addresses these challenges through:

• Material selection: Premium seals use high-grade rubber and [...]
