Warranties out to seven years

LDV, the distributor of New Zealand’s largest range of commercials, has boosted its warranty package to seven years to “keep Kiwi families and businesses moving”.

Any model bought from January 1 is eligible for the new package. It includes seven years or 200,000km of coverage, whichever comes first, for models with internal combustion engines. The distance travelled drops to 160,000km for electric vehicles. 

Then there’s seven years of roadside assistance and warrant of fitness checks.

Customers who bought a new LDV from the start of 2025 need take no further action because the new package has been automatically applied. 

Kym Mellow, general manager of Inchcape NZ, LDV’s local distributor, says the initiative elevates standards of the commercial-vehicle market and highlights the brand’s commitment to support future owners. 

“This coverage is a significant step in enhancing the confidence our customers have in their purchase,” he adds.

“LDV vehicles continue to help Kiwi businesses work harder every day. This package reflects our commitment to providing peace of mind and support throughout a customer’s ownership journey.”
