KUALA LUMPUR 18 Jan. - Toyota Capital Malaysia to be the first in the world to introduce an Islamic based car subscription program to the discerning and financially savvy customers of the local car market.

 

KINTO ONE is a car subscription-based program that has now reached the shores of Malaysia. 

 

Introduced under the label KINTO ONE by Toyota Capital Malaysia, it offers a new medium to the public to owning and driving a car without all the hassles associated with the traditionally popular hire purchase facility.

 

In the simplest description, KINTO ONE is an all-inclusive, fixed monthly payment, car subscription plan. 

 

.

 

The fixed monthly subscription covers registration of the vehicle, annual comprehensive insurance and road tax, periodic maintenance as well as preventive maintenance. 

 

Subscription period comes in either two years or three years and once the subscription period is completed, the customer is to just simply return the car to Toyota Malaysia.

 

President of Toyota Capital Malaysia, Thomas Chai said, KINTO ONE is the direct translation of a strategic partnership between Toyota Capital Malaysia and UMW Toyota Motor and is a distinctly curated response to the new generation lifestyle seeking for mobility.

 

"It is about the shift of consumer behavior from car ownership to car usership. It is about Toyota’s vision of Mobility for All.

 

"KINTO ONE is a subscription plan that allows the customers to get the most value of their car at the same price throughout the contract period, particularly when all the scheduled periodic and preventive maintenance costs are included.

 

"This simply means customers really do not have to pay for anything else; be it oil change and all the labor cost associated with servicing the car and not even tires nor battery change amongst many others. Everything is all truly inclusive," he said.

 

.

 

Thomas added, KINTO ONE is to serve customers who are looking for more private and safer mobility solutions amidst the Covid-19 pandemic.

 

Not only that, the complete range of services and maintenance will be handled by authorized Toyota dealers with genuine parts and that all KINTO ONE customers are covered under comprehensive takaful insurance coverage with 24-hour emergency assistance.

 

Meantime, President of UMW Toyota Motor Sdn. Bhd., Ravindran Kurusamy said, while it all seems new and revolutionary for KINTO ONE aiming to cater to the newer generation of car owners seeking for freedom and mobility through its all-inclusive fixed monthly subscription plan, KINTO ONE has been introduced in many parts of the world.

"While it is newly launched here in Malaysia, we are starting with our learning curves way past the introductory stages.

 

"With strong support of Toyota Motors Corporation and the abundant availability of intellectual discourses amongst KINTO operators across the world, it has made our market introduction journey a very enriching one," he added.

 

KINTO ONE is exclusively available online via the website www.kinto-my.com and now officially available to the Malaysian public starting 18 January 2021. - DagangNews.com
