In Germany, PSA Finance S.A.

Beyond financing, PSA Finance S.A. NL Deutschland also offers insurance products designed for the automotive industry. These often include comprehensive and liability insurance policies, as well as GAP insurance, which covers the difference between the vehicle’s value and the outstanding loan amount in the event of theft or total loss. Furthermore, service and maintenance packages can be bundled with financing agreements, providing customers with a convenient and cost-effective way to maintain their vehicles.
For dealerships, PSA Finance S.A. NL Deutschland provides wholesale financing, also known as floorplan financing. This allows dealerships to stock their showrooms with vehicles and manage their inventory effectively. They also offer financing solutions for dealership operations, such as loans for equipment purchases or facility upgrades. By supporting dealerships with these financial tools, PSA Finance S.A. NL Deutschland plays a critical role in the distribution and sales of Stellantis vehicles across Germany.
