Skoda Australia has today announced it is extending its new car warranty to seven years, available on all new Skoda models "with immediate effect".

The newly lengthened warranty period is included within nationally advertised drive-away pricing of all Skodas, including RS variants, and is valued between $1150 and $1670 – depending on your chosen model and variant.

Skoda also indicates that warranty coverage in the term’s later years is uniquely identical to the first few years' coverage, making Skoda’s seven-year commitment a comprehensive one.

Skoda Australia Director, Michael Irmer, said: “Seven years' warranty is full cover without common exclusions, such as infotainment systems or starter batteries”.

The new warranty bolsters Skoda’s ‘ease of ownership’ fixtures offered to its customers, including pre-paid five- or seven-year service packs, and ‘pay as you go’ service and maintenance subscription offerings.

“Value means more than a sticker price”, said Irmer.

“Ease of ownership, peace of mind and more metal for the money – these are values on which Skoda prides itself on”.

Skoda’s new seven-year warranty is already in effect, applicable on all new vehicles sold from today. However, recent buyers need not feel left out. Customers who have purchased a new Skoda in the past five years are also able to upgrade their existing warranties.
