SK rent-a-car unveiled its online exclusive used-car long-term rental product

2021-12-21

- Service available at ‘SK Rent-a-car Direct’ Homepage starting from 20th, 12 to 36 months deal available
- Wide product spectrum ranging from domestic sedan (G80, G70, K3, etc.) to SUV (Palisade, Sportage, etc.) to foreign vehicle model (BMW, etc.)
- “Efforts for continuous innovation will be made to elevate customer value and social value of resource recycling through rental service”


SK rent-a-car has launched online exclusive long-term rental product on a pilot basis following the roll-out of ‘TAGO PAY’ last month, the first pay-per-mile rental plan in the industry. Along with this, the company has elevated social value from the perspective of resource recycling.


SK rent-a-car (CEO: Hwang Il-Moon) made an announcement on the 20th that it unveiled a product that complements its existing long-term secondhand vehicle rental product.


The company selects vehicles with high marketability to make this service ▲safe, ▲simple, ▲fast, and ▲cheap.


In detail, SK rent-a-car selected the vehicles that meet the requirements of single driver, no-accident record, contract period of less than 36 months, and accumulated mileage of less than 60,000 kilometers. And the selected vehicles were inspected and repaired for the roll-out of the service. The company replaced vehicle consumables of all selected vehicles including engine oil with new ones, and completed interior cleaning to transform the vehicles into the level of new cars.


One of the focuses is on elevating safety to remove drivers’ concern about secondhand cars. To this end, the company provides free ‘on-site inspection’ service for customers who drive 10,000 kilometers or whose contract reaches one year. Besides, ‘Smart Care’, the application for comprehensive vehicle inspection service, enables customers to see when they receive maintenance service at a glance and use relevant other services.


Being easy and simple is one of the advantages. Anyone who wants to use the product can sign a deal online anywhere and anytime within 3 minutes through SK rent-a-car Direct. Regardless of popularity, the selected vehicle is quickly delivered to home. In addition, customers can enjoy a 2% additional price discount online.


For example, if you select Palisade 3.8 Gasoline (prestige class, KRW 46.82 million with option included), and sign a 48-month new vehicle long term rental deal, the monthly rental fee is around KRW 900,000, but if you select two-year-old 2019 model of the same vehicle whose driving distance is 55,000 kilometers, the fee is around KRW 570,000, which is KRW 330,000 cheaper. SK rent-a-car allows customers to use new vehicle-class products when the rental fee reach 60% or above of new vehicle long-term rental, saying that this product is aimed at smart customers who seek for reasonable consumption.


This secondhand vehicle long-term rental consists of two types; ‘Rental fee save’ which lowers monthly rental fees, and ‘Takeover fee save’ which reduces the amount of vehicle takeover. According to the vehicle model, the contract period is from 12 to 36 months. More details are available at SK rent-a-car’s Direct homepage (www.skdirect.co.kr)


An SK rent-a-car official said, “we will pay attention to the results of the test operation of this service to see how our customers feel about it, and then reflect their feedback when we commercialize this product, thereby making constant efforts to deliver better customer value and innovate ourselves. And we will upgrade secondhand vehicle long-term rental products to enhance social value of resource recycling so that we can contribute to promoting ESG management.”
