Kia drives peace of mind with 7-Year warranty
MUMBAI: Seven years of smooth sailing for Kia owners. Kia India is taking the worry out of car ownership by extending its warranty programme up to seven years, giving drivers extra miles of peace of mind. The move covers popular models including the Seltos, Sonet, Syros, and Carens, for both new buyers and loyal customers who already enjoy a five-year plan.
Existing owners can upgrade from a five-year warranty to a 5 plus 2-year plan starting at Rs 32,170, while new customers can secure the full seven-year coverage from Rs 47,249. The extended programme is available at any authorised Kia dealership across the country.
“At Kia India, we are committed to making ownership truly worry-free,” said Kia senior VP, sales & marketing Atul Sood. “By extending our warranty, we are showing confidence in the durability of our vehicles while ensuring our customers have continued support through our service network.”
Kia has consistently focused on enhancing the ownership experience through tailored programmes that reduce maintenance costs and boost resale value. The brand has rolled out nine vehicles in India to date and boasts a network of 744 touchpoints across 329 cities.
Since opening its Anantapur plant in 2019, Kia India has dispatched over 1.5 million vehicles, including more than 1.2 million domestically, cementing its position as a leader in connected car technology with over 4.7 lakh connected vehicles on the road.
With this seven-year warranty, Kia is making it clear: owning a car should be more about the journey and less about the worry.
