Cobra safety and security products for motability customers

2nd September 2010 Print

Vehicle safety and security system provider Cobra has launched a range of value added products which allow manufacturers to enhance their offering to Motability customers.

ParkMaster Parking Sensors, a hands free Bluetooth system, the CobraTrak GPS Stolen Vehicle Tracking device and a Cruise Control system are all available as plug and play products developed specifically with the Motability customer in mind.

All four products are OEM approved and offer a warranty that mirrors the manufacturer’s warranty.

Visually all products reflect factory fitted options and can be installed by a national network of Cobra approved fitters. Cobra also offers a full marketing and installation service to support dealers, the manufacturer’s production facility or port of entry.

“We have developed these products to help manufacturers enhance their product offering to the Motability market sector,” explained Cobra’s UK Managing Director Andrew Smith.

“All products have been developed to fit cars and light commercials, including wheelchair accessible vehicles and offer a point of differentiation for manufacturers as well as an additional revenue opportunity,” he added.

Cobra currently supplies products to 26 car brands in the UK.
