India Yamaha Motor, a leading two-wheeler manufacturer in the country, recently concluded its Yamaha National 3S Grand Prix 2024–25, a nationwide competition designed to recognise and reward the skills of dealership staff crucial to delivering Yamaha's 'Premium 3S' experience (Sales, Service and Spares). The initiative aims to enhance customer service across the country and acknowledge the vital role played by on-ground personnel.

The 2024-25 Grand Prix featured five categories: Technician, Service Advisor, the new Tele-Caller segment, Parts Manager and Sales Consultant. The competition unfolded in three stages, beginning with regional contests from 15 August to 30 September 2024, which saw a record 7,567 participants. Top performers from online examinations then advanced to zonal rounds held between 17 February and 18 March 2025.

The national finals took place on 24th and 25th June 2025 at Yamaha’s Surajpur facility in Greater Noida, where 40 finalists vied for top honours. The top three in each category were felicitated by senior management. Notably, the winning technician will represent India at the World Technician Grand Prix 2025 in Japan this November.

Judging criteria varied by category, assessing technicians on troubleshooting and maintenance, service advisors on customer handling and timely vehicle delivery and tele-callers on communication skills. Sales consultants were evaluated on their ability to provide a premium customer experience, while parts managers were judged on efficient stock management and customer service.

Ravinder Singh, Senior Vice-President at Yamaha Motor India Sales, said, "The Yamaha National 3S Grand Prix reflects our deep commitment to nurturing frontline talent and recognizing the critical role they play in delivering an exceptional experience for our customers.

The 2023 edition engaged over 6,000 contestants, with the introduction of the Tele-Caller category in 2024-25 pushing overall participation to an all-time high of 7,567.
