Subaru Southern Africa has introduced two new offers for customers to further entrench the notion of Confidence in Motion.
These two offers are:
- a new Guaranteed Future Value (GFV) product offer across all new models and
- a limited-time Maintenance Plan offer specific to the Subaru WRX.
Subaru Finance, a product of WesBank – a division of FirstRand Bank Ltd was established with the vision of ensuring that customers receive easier access to Subaru Vehicles through smart, tailored, and relevant financial solutions. One of these is a new Guaranteed Future Value (GFV) finance product that gives customers peace of mind with a guaranteed buyback value at the end of the contract.
Marketing Manager of Subaru SA, Nteo Nkoli says, “the Guaranteed Future Value (GFV) offers peace of mind of knowing that your finance arrangement will be settled when your vehicle is returned and the confidence to plan for your next Subaru.”
Subaru Customers can choose a contract period of either 36 or 48 months, whereupon customers will have the following options available to them: Customers could give the vehicle back at the end of the term, trade in the vehicle for a new Subaru, or even opt to refinance the very same vehicle.
In addition to this Subaru Finance product, Subaru SA is also offering a limited-time Extended Maintenance Plan on the Subaru WRX. All Subaru products are currently sold with a 3-year/75 000km Maintenance Plan but Subaru SA is upping the ante for a limited period by extending this to a 5-year/120 000km Maintenance Plan on the WRX at no extra cost.
“Everything we do at Subaru is about offering our customers Confidence in Motion and these finance and maintenance plan offers are yet another way we are doing that” concludes Nkoli.

He made enough capital to open a clothing retailer. In the early 1950\’s Maponya and his wife established the Dube Hygienic Dairy, which delivered milk to customers daily. By the 1970\’s his clothing empire had grown enough for him to branch into other areas, including: general stores, car dealerships and filling stations. In 2007, Maponya Mall in Soweto was opened, one of the largest shopping centres in the country. He continued to focus on Soweto\’s growth by establishing Maponya Motor City, which included a Volkswagen and Toyota dealership.
