The VW Sign&Drive subscription program includes armored versions of the T-Cross and Taos; Audi also offers the armored Q5 by subscription in Brazil
Now it is possible to sign a Volkswagen armored car in Brazil. The German automaker’s subscription service, VW Sign&Drive, has just announced armored versions of the T-Cross and Taos Highline. With plans starting from R$5,529, the service promises deliveries in just seven days even in the city of Sao Paulo (SP) and has the same benefits as other subscription plans, with durations ranging from 12 to 36 months.
According to Volkswagen Financial Services Brasil (VWFS), the company responsible for the service, the advantage is the speed of receiving the armored car via signature, with deadlines of seven working days in Greater São Paulo, Campinas and Ribeirão Preto; 15 days in the other municipalities of São Paulo and in the cities of Brasilia, Goiânia, Curitiba and Belo Horizonte; and 30 days in the rest of the country.
In comparison, the brand points out that other companies take three months or more to deliver cars with this protection. “The prompt delivery differential reinforces our commitment to serving a demanding public, who values every minute and cannot wait months for the delivery of an armored car,” says Simone Caracante Moras, Marketing and Sales Director of VWFS Brasil.
VW Sign&Drive offers the T-Cross Highline and Taos Highline models, both equipped with automotive protection from Target Blindagens, for monthly fees starting at R$5,529 and R$6,659, respectively. Mileage allowances vary from 500 to 2,500 km/month. The contracts are for 12, 18, 24 or 36 months, with the possibility of renewal and exchange with another new model at the end of the period.
Like the other vehicles offered by the subscription program, the armored models are delivered to the customer with documentation and paid fees, as well as additional services such as preventive maintenance, licensing and theft and accident coverage, all already included in the package. All details and conditions are available on the program website and from the German brand’s dealer network.
The announcement comes at a time of strong growth for this modality, which has increased by 31% in the last year, according to the Brazilian Association of Car Rental Companies (ABLA). According to the Brazil Armor Association (Abrablin), in the first half of 2024 there was a 45% increase in the number of armored vehicles in Brazil. More than 20,000 cars were armored between January and June alone, surpassing the annual record of 29,200 armored vehicles registered at the end of 2023.
The armored Audi Q5 also has the signature
Audi Signature, Audi’s car subscription program managed by VWFS, now also offers the Q5 equipped with homologated protection in Brazil, available with immediate delivery for monthly installments starting from R$ 13,899 and deductible options of 1,000 or 1,500 km/month . The deadline for collecting the model is seven working days for Greater São Paulo.
For the other municipalities of São Paulo the deadline is 15 days and 30 days for the rest of the country. The model is also delivered to the customer with documentation and expenses paid, in addition to preventative maintenance, licensing and theft and accident protection already included in the package. Model contracts last 12, 18, 24 or 36 months, with the option to renew and exchange for another new Audi after your chosen period.
