CUPRA Introduces 5-Year Warranty For All Models From 3 April 2024

All new model releases will receive the five year warranty, including the upcoming CUPRA Born VZ

CUPRA has introduced a five-year/90,000 mile warranty across the range, for all CUPRA models from 3 April 2024.

The new warranty will be valid for orders placed on, or after 3 April 2024 and applies to both new factory orders and stock orders. It comprises of a two-year manufacturer’s warranty with unlimited mileage, plus a further three years up to a maximum of 90,000 miles (whichever comes first).

“Our new five-year warranty across the range makes the CUPRA offering even more appealing. We want to reassure our customers with the knowledge that they are extensively covered when purchasing their CUPRA, so they can enjoy their experience. The accessibility of our models is very important to us, and by increasing the warranty of our range to five years, we give customers continued peace of mind on the road.”

Marcus Gossen, Director of SEAT and CUPRA UK

Previously, the CUPRA range covered three years (or 60,000 miles), with the option to extend to either four years (or 75,000 miles), or five years (or 90,000 miles) for an additional cost.

CUPRA’s paint warranty and body protection warranty remain unchanged at three years and 12 years, respectively. CUPRA Born’s battery warranty also remains unchanged at eight years or 100,000 miles, whichever is earliest. 

With the new five-year warranty priced into the range, customers will reap the rewards of competitive vehicle cover for longer.

Manufacturer 'Warranty' is actually an insurance policy taken out by the brand to protect themselves from unlimited liability - it is administered from within the importer (VAG UK in our case) by a team from the insurance company. It is the insurance company that authorises the dealer to do warranty work and in some cases even how to diagnose a fault.

So the 5 year warranty shouldn't be interpreted as 'the cars are better now' but rather that VAG UK have made commercial decision to be competitive with some other brands.
