As nationwide dealers have started receiving the new Picanto, the British division of Kia announced it has made available the company’s new all inclusive national servicing package. Customers can thus add a three or five year service package when purchasing an all-new Picanto.
Taken separately, the Care-3 package is £259 including VAT, which covers the first three services – either 36 months or 30,000 miles. On the other hand, the Care-3 Plus package is £499 including VAT which covers the first five services – either 60 months or 50,000 miles.
All work will be carried out by trained product technicians, using genuine Kia replacement parts and specified oils. After the Care-3 package or Care-3 Plus package is complete, the vehicle will have a full service history.
If a customer wishes to retain the Picanto after three years and originally only had the Care-3 package, a top up can be added for £275 including VAT, to extend the package to the full five years.
The Care-3 and Care-3 Plus package stays with the car, so is fully transferable to another customer. If a second owner would like the five year service package – on a vehicle with a Care-3 package, the new owner can top-up this package to cover the next two years.
“This is a new direction for Kia and a real cost saver for customers. We want the Kia brand to stand for more than just delivering great products with great quality and a 7 year warranty; we want Kia to be known as a brand that stands for delivering value for money service excellence. Picanto is a fantastic product and this package allows buyers to guarantee the lowest possible service costs throughout their ownership,” stated Hamish McCowan, Director of After Sales and Logistics.
