The choice is yours

Fortunately, there are still some guarantees in life. Volkswagen Choice1 is a flexible finance solution that lets you lock in a pre-determined minimum value for your vehicle at the end of your loan. Once your loan ends, you have the option to trade in, retain or return your vehicle. The choice really is yours.

How it works

01   Choose your favourite Volkswagen model and enjoy peace of mind knowing its minimum future value.

02   Choose your preferred term of 12, 24, 36, 48 or 60 months, along with an annual kilometre allowance and repayment options.

03   Choose one of three end of term options: trade in, retain or return.

Your options at the end of the term

What you choose at the end of your loan is up to you.

Options below:

Trade in

You can trade in your Volkswagen for a new one at the dealership. In the event that the trade-in value is higher than the Guaranteed Future Value3, you can use the equity towards your new vehicle.

Retain

If you want to keep your Volkswagen, simply let us know. If you've met the relevant payment obligations under your contract, you can purchase your vehicle outright for the Guaranteed Future Value3.

Return

You can choose to return your Volkswagen at the end of the term if the vehicle meets the agreed kilometre and Fair Wear and Tear requirements.

What is Guaranteed Minimum Future Value?

A loan with Guaranteed Future Value gives you the flexibility, certainty and peace of mind of having three options once your lease period on your work vehicle expires. You can upgrade your Volkswagen for a new one, retain your current vehicle or simply return the vehicle to a Volkswagen dealer.

A Guaranteed Future Value loan is like any other loan with a balloon payment at the conclusion of the term. The only difference is that Volkswagen will guarantee the minimum return value of the vehicle to ensure it covers the final payment. This means that if the vehicle is in good condition, has met the agreed kilometre usage and is undamaged – you and your business will never be out of pocket when trading your vehicle in to cover the final payment.

Maintaining your vehicle

We understand that you will want to keep your Volkswagen in premium condition. To ensure the integrity of the Guaranteed Future Value Program1, your Volkswagen must be in acceptable condition when you return it to us and must not exceed the kilometre limit as every kilometre over your limit is charged at 66 cents per kilometre. We also understand that some reasonable wear and tear is only to be expected, but it needs to remain within the provisions set by your Volkswagen Financial Services contract. If you exceed your nominated kilometre allowance, it will reduce your Guaranteed Future Value. However this won’t affect your ability to Trade in, Retain or Return your vehicle.
