CARS24 CARE+: Best in Class Used Car Warranty Packages

New Delhi [India], October 29: The journey of buying a pre-owned car is traditionally overshadowed by one critical question: What happens after I drive it home? The fear of unexpected, crippling repairs is the single biggest barrier to achieving peace of mind in the used car market. Generic warranties offered by most platforms often come with fine print, excluding critical parts or applying only to a small fraction of their inventory.

CARS24 has engineered a definitive solution: the CARE+ Extended Warranty. It’s not merely a repair policy; it is a meticulously designed complete shield against ownership uncertainty, positioned as the industry's most transparent and value-driven offering. By offering a 360 shield across all essential ownership touchpoints, CARE+ elevates your purchase to a long-term, secure investment.

CARE+: The 360° Used Car Ownership Shield

The CARE+ plan is the only program in the country to offer an unconditional full ownership shield that is available across all types of cars on the platform, whether they are from CARS24’s own stock or a private seller. This universal coverage is what truly defines its value and makes CARS24 stand out from other players in the market, who only stick to warranty on limited stock.

Key components that deliver unmatched value for money:

Maximum Warranty Coverage: You receive warranty coverage for up to 3 years or 45,000 km, the most extended tenure offered in the used car industry. This provides maximum parts coverage on critical mechanical and electrical components, going far beyond basic engine and gearbox cover to protect you from the unexpected costs that often erode resale value.

Assured Buyback Promise: Uniquely, the CARE+ plan includes an Assured Buyback promise. This feature protects your investment from day one by guaranteeing a resale value, transforming your liability into a secure, predictable financial asset and making future upgrades simple.

Total Peace of Mind Services: The shield extends to convenience and maintenance. It includes Free Annual Servicing using genuine parts, ensuring your vehicle's longevity and performance. Furthermore, 24x7 Roadside Assistance (RSA) is provided nationwide, ensuring you are covered in any emergency, any time, anywhere.

Industry’s Only 30-Day Return: To solidify buyer confidence, every assured car comes with a 30-day return period, ensuring you have ample time to confirm the car is the right car for you, removing all decision-making risk.

Why CARS24 is the Clear Winner in Warranty Protection

The true inadequacy of competitor offerings is their limited scope. Most players restrict their full warranty and protection features only to cars they directly own. This forces buyers to compromise on choice or risk buying an unverified car.

CARS24 solves this fundamental problem with its full-stack model and universal CARE+ application, as highlighted in the comparison below:
