Peugeot UAE and Avis Launch Flexible Car Leasing Solutions

Customer-Focused Partnership Offers Hassle-Free Leasing

In line with Peugeot's commitment to customer-centric solutions, ‘Swaidan Trading’—a member of the Al Naboodah Group and the exclusive distributor of Peugeot vehicles in Dubai and the Northern Emirates—has announced a new partnership with award-winning car rental company Avis. This collaboration brings exclusive leasing options to customers across the United Arab Emirates, providing enhanced flexibility and convenience.

Flexible Leasing Terms Without Long-Term Commitment

Through this initiative, Swaidan Trading now offers attractive leasing contracts for one or two years, with the option to extend for a third year—completely hassle-free. This agreement allows customers to lease any Peugeot model without the need for a long-term investment typically associated with buying a car.

Meeting Changing Mobility Needs After the Pandemic

Commenting on the new partnership, Greg Cotterill, General Manager of Swaidan Trading’s Automotive Division, stated: “The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted people across the region. One emerging trend has been the increased preference for leasing, especially among those who want to drive a brand-new car without the risks of long-term commitment. Peugeot is pleased to collaborate with Avis to offer an alternative that ensures safe mobility while granting customers the opportunity to experience a new car.”

Comprehensive Benefits Included in Every Lease

As part of this partnership with Avis, customers enjoy an annual mileage allowance of 30,000 kilometers, along with complimentary maintenance and servicing, free registration, and free insurance. At the end of the lease term, customers have the option to purchase the vehicle or select a new model, providing maximum flexibility.

Avis Brings Decades of Expertise to the Table

James Luxbacher, General Manager of Avis UAE, added: “The pandemic has accelerated shifts in customer behavior, prompting individuals to rethink their mobility choices. With over 40 years of experience in the UAE, Avis is well positioned to adapt to the changing needs of our clients. Partnering with Swaidan Trading to offer Peugeot leasing options enables us to provide exceptional vehicles, backed by one of the region’s top automotive agencies. Since 2018, many Peugeot models have received outstanding customer feedback for their reliability, standard features, and affordability, making Peugeot one of the best value brands in the UAE. We are excited to introduce these special leasing offers and are confident they will be well received by our customers.”

Peugeot 508: Executive Sedan Leading the Lineup

Among the vehicles available through this partnership is the luxurious fastback sedan, the Peugeot 508. Voted the customer favorite at the 2020 Middle East Car of the Year (MECOTY) awards, the new Peugeot 508 stands out with its exceptional design, advanced road handling, efficient new engines, and a host of innovative features. This model has become a game-changer in the executive sedan segment, highlighting Peugeot’s significant advancements in quality and innovation.
