Why are more & more choosing Car Subscription?
There’s no doubt about it – COVID-19 has tipped life as we know it upside down. And sadly, thanks to the far-reaching and often crippling economic impacts, as well as the potential threat to our health, life has felt uncertain and shaky in so many ways.
Self-isolation and social distancing have brought life back to bare basics, haven’t they? So it’s no wonder that so many are feeling the need to simplify, decrease stress and money commitments – at home and work.
If you’re feeling this, and you’d much prefer an easy, affordable and less stressful way to drive, then we’d love to introduce you to Car Subscription.
How many people are choosing to Subscribe their Car?
Before Coronavirus hit, Forbes were predicting that by 2025 there could be 1.9 million subscription cars
driving on Australian roads and would account for around 10 per cent of all new vehicle sales. Move over traditional car ownership!
But, we won’t be at all surprised if this number rises thanks to the ripple effects of this pandemic.
The reality of businesses closing, downsizing or having to rapidly pivot just to stay afloat will mean that many small businesses and self-employed will be looking for ways to:
- Be smart about what assets they buy,
- Save money,
- Free up cashflow, and
- Perhaps avoid those dreaded car loan applications altogether.
Why Subscribe your Car, rather than buy?
Why
you’d subscribe your car, really comes down to What
you get by subscribing. So let’s explain that for you right now.
1. Start off by exploring our wide inventory of cars, all available to be ordered online and delivered to you in Adelaide.
We’ve got all types of vehicles to choose from. We’ve got hatchbacks, small & medium SUVs, 7 seat SUVs, Peoplemovers and all sizes of sedans for the daily commute. Or single cab chassis or twin cab 4wd utes, as well as Commercial Vans. Plus if you don't see exactly what you want, just tell us and we will get it for you!
This means you can get the right car to suit your lifestyle or you can try out different makes & models. Plus, the awesome part about car subscription – you can switch cars or return!
This beats car ownership hands down, you’re not tied into the one car!
2. Forget keeping track of all of the costs that come with owning a car in the traditional way.
With your Easywheels Car Subscription service, you choose the plan that will suit your budget, lifestyle and the kilometres you usually travel, and then you’ve got just one affordable weekly payment that starts from as little as $199/week!
You can delete the Registration, Insurance, Servicing and Roadside Assistance lines from your budget spreadsheet, because that’s all wrapped up in the car subscription. All you need to do is pay for fuel & tolls as you go.^
So if you’re looking for less budget stress and no more surprises with repair or service costs, you’ll love this.
3. You can start celebrating now, because there’s no stressful loan applications involved! And no tense negotiations with a car dealership.
If you’re self-employed or have had to start a new business, then buying or leasing a car can be a huge challenge – and right now, who is keen on having one more commitment to keep your business running? (And let’s not even mention the words depreciation, or balloon payments!).
With Easywheels, there’s no financials needed.
So in addition to self-employed, the subscription model can also prove to be a perfect solution for you if you’ve wanted to buy a car but had a car loan declined. Or you may have just started a new job and are still in the probationary period, or you’re not ‘loan-friendly’ for any other reasons.
How do you get started with Car Subscription?
We’re all getting more accustomed to ordering online and getting delivery at the moment. And the great news is, your Car Subscription is no different!
You can get the car you want, without having to step foot into a dealership.
- Choose the Car You Want
- Pick the Right Plan
- Apply Online
- Enjoy Your Drive
- Swap or Return
Also, if you’re looking to sell your car to free up additional cashflow, we can also look at buying your car.
So, if you don’t want to buy or lease a car, you’re unable to get a loan, you’ve just started a new job, you’re not keen to commit your cash to a large asset, or you’re just not settled on what model is best for you at the moment – car subscription provides you with a fantastic alternative.
And, we think that you’ll quickly see why during COVID-19 and beyond, car subscription is only going to grow in popularity in Adelaide and right across Australia.
