- Guaranteed Future Value is like a warranty on the resale price of your car
- Short 3-year tenure repayment with the Agility+ program is equivalent to a 7-year long tenure with conventional fixed-rate financing
- When the contract ends, you can sign up for a new car, or buy it over without having to pay a large sum balloon payment
Jamaican activist Marcus Garvey once said, “Progress is the attraction that moves humanity”. Mankind’s nature to question a question, learn and evolve is the basis of all technological and socioeconomic advancement we see in the world today.
But to progress, we first need to be dissatisfied. It is perhaps the guiding principle behind every new Mercedes-Benz vehicle; to be dissatisfied first, before pushing the envelope of design, engineering and craftsmanship ever further.
It is for this reason, the Mercedes-Benz S-Class remains the benchmark of luxury motoring for more than half a century; and why the Mercedes-AMG Project One is the first production car ever, to be powered by an actual Formula 1 engine.
Dissatisfied with conventional forms of car ownership - where owners are penalized with heavy depreciation, especially on high-end models - Mercedes-Benz Malaysia has introduced Agility+; the latest all-inclusive financing plan designed for utmost flexibility and peace of mind, as you step into your next Mercedes-Benz.
Agility+: The art of flexible ownership
Improving on the previous Mercedes-Benz Agility package, the Agility+ program now offers even greater flexibility with the addition of its Guaranteed Future Value (GFV) mechanism.
Thus, customers have greater security in choosing an ownership plan that meets their specific mobility needs and monthly financial goals, whilst being safeguarded against depreciation at the end of the plan tenure.
Think of it as a warranty on the resale price of your car!

The GFV will predetermine the outstanding value of the vehicle at the end of the primary plan - ensuring you do not lose on depreciation - and provide you with an option to settle, extend or return the vehicle.
You don't have to decide now, but rest assured that flexibility is in your hands depending on your mobility needs down the line.

Perhaps most importantly, if you choose to keep driving your Mercedes-Benz, with Agility+, there is no large balloon payment at the end of the tenure, simply extend your plan and continue payment on your Mercedes-Benz.
Take for instance the locally-assembled (CKD) Mercedes-Benz C200 which retails at RM 292,888. Opting for a 3-year tenure in Agility+ offers a monthly repayment of only RM 3,788.
When compared to a conventional hire purchase loan at an interest rate of 2.95 percent P.A., the same monthly payments would require a 7-year loan period, not to mention the depreciation that is accrued over the same time.
Thus Agility+ not only allows you to own your next Mercedes-Benz at a lower monthly repayment and protects you against depreciation, but also gives you the option to upgrade your vehicle to a newer model after just three years.
Limited time offer: Agility+ takes care of maintenance
For a limited period only, the Agility+ program will now go beyond just financing, and include the maintenance of your Mercedes-Benz during the period of ownership.
Selected Mercedes-Benz models - such as the A200, C200, C300, E200, GLA200, GLA250, GLA35, EQA250, and EQS500 - are now offered with 4 Service Packages as part of the Agility+ plan.
This covers all your Mercedes-Benz periodical service and inspection services for up to 4 years (at 12,000 km/1-year service intervals).
And for discerning owners of the Mercedes-Benz S-Class, the Agility+ plan matches the pinnacle of luxury with ultimate peace of mind, providing an extended 5-year warranty and 9 exclusive service packages.
