Jaguar Land Rover China and PICC Property and Casualty Co Ltd inked an extended vehicle warranty agreement last week in Guangzhou, Guangdong province.

This is the British luxury automaker's latest move to enhance its presence in China through providing better service to customers.

According to the agreement, the warranty period of Jaguar Land Rover vehicles can be extended from original three years or 100,000 km to five years or 160,000 km at most.

The agreement applies not only to new cars within the existing warranty period but also to used cars having official authorization by the carmaker.

The extended warranty service covers the network of its auto dealers nationwide.

In addition, the warranty contract can be transferred together with the car when it is sold second hand.

The warranty extension means that the car can have better care and maintenance and thus its value would be higher in case of used car trade-off.

The cooperation intends to offer better services to customers by integrating the resources and networks of Jaguar Land Rover and PICC P&C, executives of both companies agreed.

"Our company has always been committed to providing top-notch services to our customers, while they are enjoying our cutting-edge products," said Bob Grace, president of Jaguar Land Rover China.

"We will continue to fulfill our long-term commitment to the China market, trying to become the preferred partner with a variety of companies and institutions, so as to secure a healthy and sustainable development jointly."
