Maruti Suzuki has expanded its subscription-based ownership scheme which is essentially an easy and flexible car leasing program without actually owning it and by paying a monthly fee. Now the residents of Delhi, Noida, Faridabad, and Ghaziabad can also avail of this service. Earlier, the scheme was only available in Bangalore, Hyderabad, Pune, and Gurgaon. The company is aiming to offer the subscription program in 40-60 cities in the upcoming 2-3 years.
For this subscription-based ownership model, Maruti has collaborated with ORIX Auto Infrastructure Services India which is basically a subsidiary of ORIX Corporation, Japan. Under this program, customers get the choice to bring their favorite Maruti car home by subscribing it from a minimum of 12 months' tenure to a maximum of 48 months, as per their preference. The monthly installments also cover complete maintenance, zero dep insurance, registration charges, and 24×7 roadside assistance. However, the brand won't be responsible for the operating cost of the vehicle.
Which Maruti cars are available on the subscription-basis?
Consumers can opt to subscribe to a new Swift, Dzire, Vitara Brezza, and Ertiga from the Maruti Suzuki ARENA family and a new Baleno, Ciaz, and XL6 from NEXA premium offerings. However, only selected variants are available under this scheme.
