The Honda Insurance Plus (HiP) aims to provide the best value insurance plan for all Honda owners.
Attention Honda owners who are on the market for insurance, Honda Malaysia has recently rolled out a revamped version of its Honda Insurance Plus (HiP) insurance plan.
Touted by the automaker in being the best-in-value automotive insurance plan for its customers, the improved HiP package offers a combination of three enhanced benefits: unlimited mileage towing, 100% pay-out up to 15 years, and 100% coverage on accidental repairs (no betterment) up to 13 years.
The upgraded HiP package currently focuses on three core pillars: Rescue, Protection, and Savings, to provide extended coverage for customers.
1. Rescue
This newly-enhanced HiP has brings with it the benefit of unlimited mileage towing for accidents, breakdowns, and floods, while the roadside repair services offer free labour of up to RM 200 per event, excluding spare parts.
Customers can call Honda Malaysia’s 24/7 HiP Emergency Assistance at 1-800-18-1177 for vehicle breakdown and accident assistance services. The 24/7 rescue team will be on call to assist customers with unforeseen incidents, which includes the rather handy helping hand for changing a flat tyre.
2. Protection
HiP members whose cars are repaired at a Honda Authorised Body & Paint Centre will benefit from fast claim pre-approval for claims below RM 30,000. Customers are also to be assured that all repairs are carried out using 100% genuine Honda parts with a warranty of six months or 10,000 km mileage.
More importantly too, customers are now further entitled to Personal Accident Coverage of up to RM 15,000 in the event of Accidental Death or Permanent Disability in the Named Vehicle Car accident.
3. Savings
In the event that the vehicle is stolen or not repairable after an accident, the enhanced HiP plan guarantees 100% insurance payout based on the agreed value of the car for up to 15 years from the date of registration (up from the 13 years previously).
Additionally, vehicles covered by this plan are entitled to enjoy 100% coverage for 13 years with no betterment fee, allowing for the replacement of old parts of a Honda vehicle damaged due to accidents with new and original parts.
Honda Malaysia Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer Mr. Hironobu Yoshimura said, “Since its introduction in 2002, HiP has been providing comprehensive protection, underscored by its new tagline ‘Maximise Coverage, Maximise Smiles’, elevating an inclusive experience for Honda owners. We continuously strive to provide the best after-sales services for our customers.
The upgraded HiP package is an affirmation to our commitment to meet the current market needs and ensure that our customers can enjoy maximum benefits and at the same time having peace of mind while owning a Honda car. This Honda-exclusive insurance plan not only provides protection but also emergency services and savings benefits for both new and existing customers. We are also dedicated to providing an efficient and hassle-free claim assistance for HiP customers.”
The enhanced HiP will be rolled out starting 1 July 2024, and all existing and new Honda customers are welcome to renew or apply for their HiP package at any authorised Honda dealership.
