"Second in the World" Tesla Korea Launches Extended Warranty Program

Basic Warranty Plus Up to 8 Years or 160,000 km

Tesla Korea announced on the 3rd that it has launched the EWI (Extended Warranty) program, which allows customers to receive additional warranty coverage after the basic vehicle limited warranty period ends, as the second country in the world after China.

Customers who enroll in this program can extend the warranty period by an additional 4 years or 80,000 km, providing the same service as the basic vehicle limited warranty (4 years/80,000 km) offered at the time of vehicle purchase. This means that after purchasing a new car, customers can receive coverage for up to 8 years or 160,000 km by adding the extended warranty to the basic warranty.

This program is tied to the vehicle, not the customer. From the customer's perspective, it reduces the burden of repair costs and is advantageous for preserving the vehicle's value when selling it as a used car. The company explained that since the expiration date of the basic vehicle limited warranty for the Model 3, launched in 2019, is approaching, this program is attractive to existing consumers.

To enroll, certain conditions must be met, such as passing a pre-inspection and the vehicle's basic warranty period not having expired. Vehicles that have been modified, short-term rental cars under 36 months, and commercial vehicles are not eligible for enrollment.

The price of this program varies depending on the vehicle model and purchase time, and customers can enroll through the Tesla application (app).
