Spartanburg, SC -- KYMCO USA, a longtime leader in quality, fuel-efficient scooters, motorcycles and ATVs, has announced an agreement with Progressive, the #1 name in motorcycle and scooter insurance. With Progressive on board, KYMCO dealers will now be able to get insurance for new customers with a phone call or at the web site www.progressive.com/KYMCO.
"This partnership with Progressive is a win-win for both dealers and people purchasing our products," said Steve Lazoff, Director of Sales, KYMCO USA. "We're going to make getting insurance quicker and easier, especially for buyers who come in on evenings or weekends."
"As the largest seller of motorcycle and scooter insurance in the country, it makes sense for us to partner with a fast-growing company like KYMCO," said Marcy Gray, Motorcycle Product Manager for Progressive. "We want to make it easy for riders to buy affordable insurance on all KYMCO models, and to really understand what they're buying. Progressive representatives are available 24/7 to answer any questions dealers and customers have about scooter, ATV or motorcycle insurance."
Low rates, specialized coverages, and around-the-clock service are just some of the benefits that customers will receive. Progressive will offer insurance coverage for the entire KYMCO product line, from the People S50 scooter to the UXV500 side-by-side UTV to the Quannon 150 and Venox 250 motorcycles.
To support their efforts, KYMCO dealers are receiving a welcome packet from Progressive, including vehicle and insurance FAQs, and a sample annual premium for KYMCO models.
