[Asia Economy Reporter Suyeon Woo] AutoPlus, a leader in non-face-to-face used car purchases, announced on the 15th that it will hold a 'Bountiful Hangawi Discount Event' offering its directly managed used cars at unprecedented special prices until the 14th of next month in celebration of the Korean traditional holiday Chuseok.


This special event was prepared to provide abundant benefits and support the opportunity to purchase a car ahead of Hangawi. Various vehicles including Genesis and Hyundai models such as Santa Fe and Grandeur have been listed, and depending on the model, customers can purchase at prices up to 5 million KRW cheaper than the regular price.


In particular, when purchasing discounted vehicles, customers can enjoy the longest test drive service in the domestic industry for 10 days and a refund policy. Buyers can thoroughly check the vehicle condition through a 10-day test drive, and refunds are possible under the conditions of no accidents and less than 200 km driven.

Additionally, in September, AutoPlus will newly launch a non-face-to-face curation deal service presenting carefully selected vehicles based on the recently spotlighted car purchasing trends. As it is difficult to explore cars offline due to social distancing, the company plans to offer differentiated shopping content by showcasing vehicles selected weekly based on popular themes such as family cars and car life.


Moreover, AutoPlus has prepared substantial benefits to support customers’ return trips through various events on its official website. In the 'Take Care of My Car' event, 10 customers who submit their stories by the 20th will be selected by lottery to receive expert customized car care services at their desired date and location.


During this month, the first 50 customers who purchase a Reborn Car and register a review on the Reborn Car website will receive a GS Caltex fuel voucher worth 30,000 KRW.


Yang Kyung-deok, Executive Director of AutoPlus Platform Business Division, said, "Ahead of Chuseok, we have prepared a bountiful Hangawi discount event with unprecedented discounts for car purchases and various events to help with the return trip as a way to repay our customers' support. We will continue to provide reasonable and substantial benefits through various special events that add joy and value to customers’ overall car life."


Meanwhile, AutoPlus is also running the industry's largest 'Flooded Car Liability Compensation Program' until the 30th to alleviate consumers’ concerns about purchasing used cars with flood damage history due to the prolonged rainy season.



If a directly managed used car purchased from AutoPlus is found to have flood damage within 90 days, the full vehicle price will be refunded, registration tax will be compensated at 300%, and an additional compensation of 3 million KRW, the largest in the industry, will be provided.
