Skoda has launched Shield Plus - an extended warranty, roadside assistance and insurance package for customers. It is available on all models including the Rapid, Octavia, Superb and Kodiaq.

As part of Shield Plus, Skoda is offering 1 year comprehensive insurance and 3 years of third party coverage for subsequent years. Extended warranty for an additional period of fifth and sixth year or 1,50,000 km (whichever is earlier) is also part of the package.

The carmaker is offering 24x7 roadside assistance to customers for the fifth and sixth year of ownership. Skoda Assist will provide assistance for mechanical or electrical failure, flat or weak battery, flat tyre, fuel exhaustion, mislaid key, breakdown and accident anywhere in the country. 

In 2018, Skoda had introduced 4 year warranty, 4 year road side assistance and optional 4 year maintenance package on its cars. Shield Plus is available for existing Skoda customers who have opted for the 4 year warranty program.
