Dedicated Acura Financial Services Launched

New Acura-Branded Financial Services Created to Enhance Luxury Client’s Experience

American Honda Finance Corp. (AHFC) this week launched Acura-branded financial services to better satisfy the needs of Acura dealers and customers. The creation of Acura Financial Services (AFS) marks a major milestone in Acura history. This is just the first step of a multifaceted effort to further enhance customer service and raise the brand image for Acura, the luxury nameplate that pioneered the launch of Japanese luxury automobiles in the U.S.

“With our most recent ranking in the top two, three and four positions in the luxury lease segment of the 2008 J.D. Power and Associates Consumer Financing Satisfaction Study, the timing is perfect to utilize our years of experience and expertise to create financial services that will meet the needs of Acura clients,” said Stephen E. Smith, senior vice president of AHFC. “The creation of separate Acura-branded financial services parallels other moves to strengthen and differentiate the Acura luxury brand.”
