New Volkswagen model gets three years of free servicing

Volkswagen Australia has added another model to its free servicing initiative, aimed to offset supply chain and logistics-related cost increases currently being passed on to customers.

The Tiguan Allspace 132TSI Life is now available with a complimentary and transferable three-year or 45,000km servicing plan that’s usually worth $1650. It’s also being priced at $49,990 drive-away.

Both of these offers are available on Tiguan Allspace 132TSI Life models purchased before March 31.

This bolsters the existing complimentary five-year or 75,000km servicing plan offer available with the Passat wagon, Passat Alltrack, Arteon and Touareg. This offer has been extended to the March 31 cut-off date too.

Based on Volkswagen’s service car plan prices, purchasers of these models reduce their ownership costs by between $2400 and $3600, depending on the model.

Volkswagen notes that all these models, including the Tiguan Allspace 132TSI Life, are available for immediate delivery.

The brand is currently offering the following drive-away pricing offers on the following models:

• 2023 Volkswagen T-Cross Life: $32,990
• 2023 Volkswagen T-Cross Style: $36,990
• 2023 Volkswagen Tiguan Allspace 132TSI Life: $49,990
• 2023 Volkswagen Tiguan Allspace 162TSI Adventure: $54,990
• 2023 Volkswagen Touareg 170TDI: $95,990

All prices are drive-away.

Volkswagen also has finance offers available on T-Roc Style and R-Line, and Tiguan Life, Elegance and Monochrome models.

As recently reported, Volkswagen increased the prices on the majority of its passenger and commercial vehicles as of January 1, 2023.

Before on-road costs increased by between $240 and $1500, with shipping costs being cited as a factor.

“Shippings costs certainly aren’t diminishing. For as long as possible we shielded customers from associated price rises,” said a Volkswagen Australia spokesperson.

“We do not allow orders made prior to the designated increase date to be subject to an extra impost.”
