The Suzuki S-Presso is the cheaper of the two each month, from about R7 653 on a R140 000 vehicle value with a rental deposit from R14 000. The Hyundai Atos starts at about R8 118 a month. Both are best-case indicative figures confirmed on approval and set out in your signed rental agreement.

What is included in the monthly rental on either car?

One monthly debit order covering comprehensive insurance, vehicle tracking, licence and registration, 24/7 roadside assistance and all rental administration, plus the option to own the vehicle at the end of the term. Fuel and tyres are yours. It is a rental agreement with an option to own, not vehicle finance.

Can I switch between the Atos and the S-Presso after applying?

Yes. You apply once and we match you to stock in the national dealer network, so you can compare the two side by side before signing. 10 units in the network today for the Atos and 3 units in the network today for the S-Presso.

Do I qualify for either car with a low credit score?

Approval is affordability-led from R14,000 gross income a month with a soft credit check only, which does not affect your credit score. Blacklisted and debt-review applicants are welcome, and the same terms apply to both models.
