Renault Renews Finance Offer to Save Customers Thousands

VICTORIA, AUSTRALIA – July 14, 2011: Renault’s return to the shopping lists of Australian car buyers will continue to gather momentum with the announcement of a renewed finance offer.

Renault launched Renault Financial Services in Australia in May, and to celebrate the start of the new Financial Year, Renault is now offering its passenger car line with affordable finance at the rate of 2.9* per cent.

Renault believes this is the most attractive finance offer in the market today.

Based on the $25,990 drive away price of either the manual transmission Renault Mégane or Fluence Dynamique models, the 2.9* per cent finance offer – which attracts no establishment fee or account keeping fee – would save a customer $4,169.79 over conventional finance at 9.9 per cent, assuming a three-year finance period with a 50 per cent residual balloon payment.

Renault is offering this ultra-competitive interest rate for July and August 2011 only.

It is available on the Renault Mégane Hatch, Mégane Coupé-Convertible and Fluence Sedan, as well as the Latitude and Latitude Luxe, and Koleos 4x2 and 4x4 models.

The feisty Clio Renault Sport 200 range is also included in the Finance Offer this time, making the Cup, Gordini Edition and Australian Grand Prix Edition cars even more attractive. The Mégane Renault Sport 250, Top Gear Australia Magazine’s Car of the Year, is not included in this offer.

For Renault Kangoo and Trafic Light Commercial Vehicles, the inaugural 3.9^ per cent finance offer rolls on into July and August 2011.

The Renault Finance offer in July and August follows the inaugural Renault Financial Services Finance Campaign from May and June 2011, which assisted Renault Australia in securing its most successful retail months since April 2002.

“Renault is aiming to maintain the momentum it has built up this year,” says Justin Hocevar, Managing Director of Renault Australia.

“We have increased our sales through a combination of well-equipped, well-priced new models, backed-up by a highly competitive finance offer. We intend to keep the momentum flowing into the new Financial Year.

“We are delighted that Australian car buyers have quickly recognised the value offered by our new models, backed by a five year factory warranty on Renault passenger cars.

“Renault has a busy time ahead with more new models in the pipeline and the arrival here next year of the Renault Fluence Z.E. (Zero Emission) electric car, which will begin another exciting new chapter for our brand in Australia,” Justin said.
