Current statistics indicate that the risk of your vehicle being stolen or involved in a road accident is now greater than ever before. Guaranteed Asset Protection cover is perfectly suited to complement your credit contract and protect your investment.

If something does happen, and your vehicle is deemed a total loss, the value of your insurance payout may be significantly less than the outstanding balance of an existing credit contract. In order to cater for the shortfall, cover of $5,000, $10,000, $15,000, or $20,000 is available.

Suzuki Insurance understands how important it is for you to maintain your ability to repay your credit contract. So should the unexpected happen, Payment Protection Insurance provides you with personalised options that can be tailored to suit your changing needs.
