Suzuki Introduces 10-Year Service-Activated Warranty and Market-Leading Battery Coverage for e-Vitara

Suzuki Introduces 10-Year Service-Activated Warranty and Market-Leading Battery Coverage for e-Vitara

Date Posted: 25 April 2025

Suzuki is set to roll out a 10-year Service Activated Warranty across the UK and Ireland from 1st May 2025—an upgrade from the previous 7-year offer and still completely free of charge.

Available once a vehicle’s 3-year/60,000-mile manufacturer warranty expires, the cover kicks in at the next scheduled service within the Suzuki dealer network. It renews with each qualifying service, up to 10 years or 100,000 miles, and can be transferred to a new owner, helping boost resale value.

This initiative ensures the use of genuine parts and manufacturer-trained technicians.

In line with the launch of the new e-Vitara EV this Autumn, Suzuki is also introducing an industry-leading 10-year battery warranty—2 years longer than most rivals and well ahead of the standard 8-year industry minimum.

Even cars bought privately or with gaps in service history can qualify for the Service Activated Warranty, offering another great talking point when selling Approved Used stock.

Denis Houston, Director of Aftersales at Suzuki GB, commented:
"This extended warranty reflects our commitment to keeping customers within the Suzuki family—delivering peace of mind, value, and top-tier service."

With multiple UK Customer Satisfaction Awards and being named the UK’s No.1 automotive brand in the UKCSI index eight times since 2019, Suzuki continues to set the standard for customer experience.

Once your vehicle’s standard 3-year warranty ends, Suzuki offers an additional warranty—free of charge—when you service your car at a Suzuki dealership. It can be renewed each year, up to 10 years or 100,000 miles.

Yes. The Service Activated Warranty is available even if the car was purchased privately or has a gap in its service history, as long as it’s brought in for a scheduled service at a Suzuki dealer.

Yes, the warranty can be transferred to the new owner at no cost, as long as the vehicle continues to be serviced at a Suzuki dealership. It’s a great added value when selling your car.

Sherwoods Motor Group Limited is an Appointed Representative of Automotive Compliance Ltd, who is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA No 497010). Automotive Compliance Ltd’s permissions as a Principal Firm allows Sherwoods Motor Group Limited to act as a credit broker, not as a lender, for the introduction to a limited number of lenders and to act as an agent on behalf of the insurer for insurance distribution activities only.

We can introduce you to a selected panel of lenders, which includes manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent. An introduction to a lender does not amount to independent financial advice and we act as their agent for this introduction. Our approach is to introduce you first to the manufacturer lender linked directly to the particular franchise you are purchasing your vehicle from, who are usually able to offer the best available package for you, taking into account both interest rates and other contributions. If they are unable to make you an offer of finance, we then seek to introduce you to whichever of the other lenders on our panel is able to make the next best offer of finance for you. Our aim is to secure the best deal you are eligible for from our panel of lenders. Lenders may pay a fixed commission to us for introducing you to them, calculated by reference to the vehicle model or amount you borrow. Different lenders may pay different commissions for such introductions, and manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent may also provide preferential rates to us for the funding of our vehicle stock and also provide financial support for our training and marketing. But any such amounts they and other lenders pay us will not affect the amounts you pay under your finance agreement, all of which are set by the lender concerned. If you ask us what the amount of commission is, we will tell you in good time before the Finance agreement is executed. All finance applications are subject to status, terms and conditions apply, UK residents only, 18’s or over. Guarantees may be required.
