Top 5 Car Brands Protected by Roadwise Motor Warranty
Mondo Admin / 28-06-2024 / Financial News
Ever wondered which cars are the most popular on South African roads that are protected by Roadwise Motor Warranty? As the leading provider of extended car warranties, we have all the details.
But first, here’s a summary of what an extended car warranty is and why you need it:
This type of cover keeps you financially protected against unexpected mechanical or electrical breakdowns by covering repairs or replacements for specific car parts and associated labour costs.
All new cars in South Africa come with a factory warranty, but once it expires—based on years or mileage provided by the manufacturer—you’ll need an extended warranty.
It pays out for all types of car parts, even the costliest, like engine parts, gearboxes, steering mechanisms, and fuel systems. A highly specialised cover, this goes beyond your car insurance and service and maintenance plans.
Now, let’s unpack the most popular cars our customers are driving.
Model: Corolla
An icon on South African roads and the world’s best-selling vehicle, the Toyota Corolla is one of the most popular brands covered by Roadwise Motor Warranty. With over a million units sold in SA since 1975, the Corolla stands out as the preferred family car. We are honoured that so many of our customers trust us to financially protect them and their families from unexpected breakdowns. With Roadwise Motor Warranty, you can rest assured knowing your beloved Corolla is well cared for and remains reliable for years to come.
Models: Polo and Polo Vivo
South Africa’s best-selling passenger vehicle in 2023 and currently still in the lead in 2024, the Polo Vivo unsurprisingly takes a spot on our list. It's joined by its pricier sibling, the Polo, both of which are locally-built hatchbacks that dominate South African roads. VW is one of the most loved brands in SA with a rich seven-decade history, and we’re proud that so many of our customers trust us to take care of these highly sought-after models. Renowned for their stylish design, robust build quality, and top-notch driving dynamics, the Polo and Polo Vivo show no signs of slowing down, especially with Roadwise Motor Warranty ensuring they stay on the road for longer.
Models: Figo, Fiesta, and Kuga
Our Ford customers come from all walks of life. Many students, first-time car buyers, small families, and those starting out in their careers choose our extended warranty for their Ford Figo or Ford Fiesta. These budget-friendly hatchbacks are known for their accessibility and reliability. The Ford Kuga also features on this list because South Africans simply love midsize SUVs that cater to their growing families and make excellent companions for epic road trips.
Models: Swift and Jimny
Our Suzuki customer base is rapidly growing as more South Africans buy the Suzuki Swift or Jimny. It's hard to miss these cars on our roads these days compared to just a few years ago. Whether you opt for a Swift due to its unmatched value for money and stylish appeal or prefer the adventure-ready mini-SUV Jimny, one thing is certain: Roadwise Motor Warranty overs all your journeys.
Models: Duster, Clio, Sandero, and Kwid
A diverse range of Renault drivers opt for our extended warranty, from thrill-seekers tackling rough terrains with the muscular-designed Renault Duster SUV to city dwellers effortlessly navigating urban streets with the compact hatchbacks—the Clio and Sandero—and those seeking sporty and spacious options like the Renault Kwid, ideal for enjoying the great outdoors. This diversity underscores the trust our customers place in us to keep them protected, whether they're exploring off-road, cruising to the coast, or navigating busy city traffic.
Models: X-Trail, Micra, and Magnite
Nissan deserves a spot on this list as we've noticed an increasing number of our extended warranty sign-ups from this legendary Japanese brand. Standout models include the luxurious Nissan X-Trail SUV, the compact and trendy Nissan Micra hatchback, and the comfortable Nissan Magnite crossover SUV. This highlights that whether you're a small family, large family, first-time buyer, or adventure enthusiast, you can always depend on Roadwise Motor Warranty, no matter where the road takes you.
