Maruti Suzuki is going the extra mile to ensure that the otherwise complicated process of financing a new car is almost as easy as buying a phone online. To this end, the country's largest car maker on Friday announced the launch of Smart Finance, its one-stop online finance scheme for its Arena customers. Underlining how the company's website will be a bridge between a customer and the financier, the car maker states that the entire process can now be done through digital means in current Covid times.

Under the digital service, prospective customers can choose from several finance options based on his or her needs. The company's website will then provide real-time status updates with the overall objective of providing a transparent and hassle-free experience.
