Hyundai is bolstering its approved used car programme with new five-year warranty on vehicles that undergo an annual vehicle health check (VHC).
The warranty is offered on petrol or diesel cars up to 42 months old that have covered less than 60,000 miles.
It also applies to EV/PHEV/Hybrid vehicles up to 36 months old with a maximum of up to 60,000 miles.
Cars that don’t meet the criteria are eligible for a 12-month warranty, with the option to buy extended packages.
Vehicles must undergo an annual health check by an authorised Hyundai Retailer to unlock the next 12 months of warranty cover.
There is no mileage restriction for petrol and diesel vehicles but EV/PHEV/Hybrid cars have a 100,000-mile cap during the warranty period.
Andrew Tracey, sales director, Hyundai Motor UK, said: “Hyundai has always led the way with new car warranties, and with the newly updated Hyundai Promise our used car customers benefit from the same length of warranty cover for their Hyundai purchase.
“This is a significant landmark for Hyundai and our retail network and we’re extremely proud to be delivering one of the industry’s leading approved used car warranty schemes, bringing the very same reassurance of new car buyers to the used car sales industry.”
