Price, discounts and new features are the prime factors taken into consideration when buying a car while the cost of maintenance and ownership usually takes a backseat. Taking cognisance of the same, Skoda has introduced a newer version of its ‘Skoda Maintenance Package’, now dubbed ‘Skoda SuperCare’.
It helps new customers maintain their Skoda vehicle from wear and tear repair work for up to four years. The programme safeguards customers against spare part price and rising labour costs, offers a warranty of up to two years or unlimited km on the spare parts, and helps in the transfer of ownership at the time of selling the vehicle.
Skoda is offering this programme in three packages: Standard, Enhanced and Comprehensive to new customers starting from Rs 29,999 for 4-year/60,000 km. This can be availed within a year of the vehicle’s purchase or the first service, whichever is earlier. On the other hand, existing customers can avail the same programme for 2-year/ 30,000km starting from Rs 15,777.
