Renault introduces five-year warranty across its car range

Renault has announced that all its new cars will now come with a five-year warranty – up from three years.

The move comes as the brand launches a host of important new generation models – the Clio supermini, Captur crossover and Zoe EV.

It means that the firm’s range of models, which also includes the Megane hatchback and estate, Grand Scenic, Kadjar crossover, Koleos SUV, Twizy city EV and Traffic passenger models, are now covered for five years and 100,000 miles by the manufacturer warranty – improving on the previous three-year, 60,000-mile warranty offered previously.

Every new Renault registered from today (December 18) will be covered, though the French firm has said that the cover will also extend to every new Clio, with some customers already taking delivery of this model.

Renault has also said that there will be no mileage limit for the warranty in the first two years, with the 100,000-mile limit only applying from the third year onwards.

Renault also continues to offer three years of roadside assistance for all its models – with electric models and the updated Koleos having assistance up to 100,000 miles, though the rest of the range makes do with a 60,000-mile limit.

Vincent Tourette, managing director of Renault UK, said: “I am proud that Groupe Renault UK is introducing our new five-year warranty as Renault is deeply committed to the quality and reliability of its products and this extended cover reinforces the confidence that both we and our customers have in our vehicles.

“Coming directly after the launch of all-new Clio, all-new Captur and new ZOE, this introduction arrives at an exciting new chapter for our brand.”
