Every pre-owned unit of BMW plug-in hybrid vehicle retailed by SDAS will automatically come with this extended warranty. Customers who purchased a pre-owned BMW plug-in hybrid vehicle from any SDAS branch before the launch of +HYBRID may purchase this extended warranty plan coverage from SDAS’ 3S centre located at Lot 33, Glenmarie. +HYBRID is only available for BMW plug-in hybrid vehicles purchased from SDAS.

Vehicles with mileage of under 140,000km and less than 8 years are eligible for the program with up to RM15,000 per claim, on total aggregate of up to RM100,000 per year depending on the vehicle age and type.

SDAS General Manager Choong Chin Seong said the company aims to be a one-stop-centre for customers in the pre-owned vehicle market, catering to all their needs.

“SDAS strives to keep innovating our offerings in anticipation of customers’ needs, and hopefully exceed the demand of our customers.

“We aim to set ourselves apart from the competition and are determined to offer only quality products and services that are akin to the 3S centres,” said Choong.

This product is brought to customers through collaboration with SDAS’ partners GMR and RHB Insurance.
