Renault Korea is extending warranty coverage to up to seven years or 140,000 kilometers for customers who buy the Filante or Grand Koleos this month, while offering 5 million won ($3,690) in fuel cost support for buyers of the Arcana hybrid.

The automaker announced Thursday that it will run a "7-year/140,000 km" free warranty extension program for individual and sole-proprietor customers purchasing the Filante or the 2027 Grand Koleos — continuing a program it introduced last month.

The program stretches the standard body and general parts warranty from three years or 60,000 km to seven years or 140,000 km, and extends the powertrain warranty from five years or 100,000 km to the same ceiling. To keep the extended coverage, owners must visit an authorized Renault Korea service center once a year for a 12-item complimentary inspection and pay for an engine oil change. If those conditions are met, the extended warranty transfers when the vehicle is resold as a used car.

Existing warranty terms for hybrid-specific components and high-voltage batteries remain unchanged at eight years or 160,000 km and 10 years or 200,000 km, respectively.

All Arcana models are eligible for 36-month zero-interest fixed installment financing. The Arcana Hybrid E-Tech also receives 5 million won in fuel cost support regardless of payment method, and buyers can combine that benefit with the zero-interest installment plan. Customers choosing the 1.6 GTe model may select either the 36-month zero-interest plan or 1 million won in fuel cost support.

Fuel support amounts for the Filante vary by production date: vehicles produced before April this year receive 1.5 million won, those produced from May through July receive 1 million won, and August production units receive 700,000 won. Buyers may also choose either an electric sunshade or accessories worth 500,000 won.

Benefits for the 2026 Grand Koleos are also tiered by production month. Customers with vehicles produced before April can choose between 3 million won in fuel support or a package combining 1.5 million won in fuel support with a seven-year warranty extension and up to seven engine oil change vouchers. Those with May-through-July production units may select either 2 million won in support or a package of 500,000 won in fuel support plus the warranty extension and oil change vouchers. August production vehicles receive 1.5 million won in fuel support.

Renault Korea is also offering incentives for long-term vehicle owners and returning buyers. Customers who have owned a vehicle for five or more years and purchase a Filante or Grand Koleos will receive 500,000 won. Returning buyers receive 500,000 won for their second through fifth purchase and 1 million won from their sixth purchase onward.

The company has also broadened the definition of a returning buyer. Purchase histories of the buyer's spouse and their direct-line relatives, as well as the buyer's and spouse's siblings, now count toward the total. Customers with a history of using Renault Korea's affiliated financial products will receive an additional 300,000 won cashback the following month.
