New Vehicle Delivery WhatsApp Template for Automobile Dealers & Workshops
A ready-to-adapt WhatsApp message for car and two-wheeler dealers and service workshops, with placeholders, sample values and compliance notes.
When to Send This Message
Send on the day of delivery. For car and two-wheeler dealers and service workshops, this is one of the everyday messages that keeps customers informed without a phone call. Most businesses send it automatically from their software, so the timing is consistent.
After the sale, service reminders, insurance renewals and accessories keep the customer returning to the dealership for years.
The WhatsApp Template
Dear {{1}}, congratulations on your new {{2}} from [Business Name]. Your first free service is due at {{3}} km or {{4}} months, whichever is earlier.[Business Name]
Example with sample values
Dear Mr. Singh, congratulations on your new compact SUV from [Business Name]. Your first free service is due at 1,000 km or 1 months, whichever is earlier.
Replace [Business Name] with your registered brand name. Links shown use example.com as a placeholder; use your own domain.
Placeholders and Sample Values
| Placeholder | Meaning | Sample value |
|---|---|---|
| {{1}} | Customer | Mr. Singh |
| {{2}} | Model | compact SUV |
| {{3}} | Km | 1,000 |
| {{4}} | Months | 1 |
Filling in each placeholder
- Customer (sample: Mr. Singh): Use the first name or the salutation the customer gave you; fall back to a neutral greeting if the field is empty.
- Model (sample: compact SUV): Keep the value short and specific; test the longest realistic value to check the message still reads well.
- Km (sample: 1,000): Keep the value short and specific; test the longest realistic value to check the message still reads well.
- Months (sample: 1): Keep the value short and specific; test the longest realistic value to check the message still reads well.
This template has 4 placeholders and a body of 158 characters before values are filled in. WhatsApp allows up to 1,024 characters in a template body, but short messages with one clear action get the best response.
Category and Approval
Utility templates must relate to a specific transaction, account or request the customer already has with you, such as a confirmation, reminder or status update. Do not add offers or promotional lines, as Meta may reclassify the template as marketing.
Compliance Checklist
- Marketing messages include an easy way to opt out, and opt-outs are honoured promptly.
- The template is approved in the correct category before sending; utility and authentication templates cannot carry promotional content.
- The customer has opted in to receive WhatsApp messages from your business, and you keep a record of the opt-in.
Rules to keep in mind for Automobile Dealers & Workshops
Prices in ads should be described accurately (ex-showroom versus on-road) and finance offers must name the lender and state that approval is subject to terms. Insurance renewals offered through the dealership must follow IRDAI rules for the intermediary involved.
General guidance, not legal advice. Rules change, so confirm current requirements before launch. See our WhatsApp compliance guide for India.
Tips for Better Results
- Keep one purpose per message; if you need to send a reminder and a document, the reminder should still make sense on its own.
- Use the customer's name and a reference number so the message is easy to trust and to search for later.
Getting the new vehicle delivery message right
Send it on the evening of delivery, while the excitement is fresh, and include the service advisor's name and the first free service due date.
