18th March 2024, Colombo: Global Conversions, a leading Sri Lankan-owned company specializing in automobile re-engineering, has achieved a remarkable milestone in the automotive industry with successful conversion of the world’s first Hummer EV SUV to right-hand drive. This groundbreaking achievement exemplifies Global Conversions’ commitment to innovation and excellence in the field of vehicle conversions.

Global Conversions has been at the forefront of automobile re-engineering, specializing in converting American left-hand drive vehicles such as GMC, Ford, Lincoln, Dodge, Chevrolet, Cadillac, as well as North American Toyota and Nissan, to right-hand drive. The successful conversion of the Hummer EV SUV adds to their list of prestigious achievements.

Handing over the keys to the first customer of the Right-Hand Drive Hummer EV SUV marks a historic moment for both Global Conversions and the automotive industry. This milestone underscores the company’s readiness to undertake and complete many more groundbreaking projects in the future.

Suresh Edirisinghe, Founder and Chairman of Global Conversions, expressed his excitement about this historic moment, stating, “We are thrilled to have completed the world’s first conversion of a Hummer EV SUV to right-hand drive. This accomplishment showcases our dedication to pushing boundaries and delivering exceptional solutions to our customers.”

Transitioning their operations from Sri Lanka to Ras Al-Khaimah in the UAE was a strategic move to expand their business internationally and establish a central meeting point for their customers worldwide. Despite the expansion and relocation, Global Conversions remains deeply committed to delivering exceptional quality and customer satisfaction.

The successful conversion of the Hummer EV SUV exemplifies Global Conversions’ dedication to excellence. Not only have they completed the conversion, but they have also meticulously tested and validated its functionality, ensuring the highest safety and performance standards.

Global Conversions firmly believes that their success sets them apart from the competition. Their combination of skill, dedication, commitment, and extensive knowledge positions them as leaders in the field of conversion services. Each converted vehicle represents a testament to their craftsmanship and the satisfaction of their clientele.
