'Hero Deals' Promotion is Welcome Economic News for Husqvarna Dealers and Their Customers 1

Husqvarna wins finance race while others plunge off track.

February 10, 2009 -- Woodcliff Lake, NJ -- In the face of a struggling global economy specialty off-road motorcycle maker Husqvarna has this week spread good news to its American dealer network about an unprecedented new model financing offer geared for their bargain-savvy customers prowling for a new motorcycle.

"We launched the new HERO DEALS promotion in hopes of focusing consumer attention on the Husqvarna brand," said Scot Harden, Husqvarna's National Sales & Marketing Manager. "In today's economic climate just offering motorcycle financing is almost unprecedented and our rate of 4.99% APR should move customers to strongly consider purchasing a new Husky as their next motorcycle. If financing isn't required the customer can opt for $1000 factory cash back on almost every 2008 and 2009 model in the range. 4.99% APR financing or $1000 factory cash back, it's really a huge benefit to the consumer any way you look at it."

Backed by Husqvarna partner company, BMW Financial Services, the aggressive HERO DEALS program is designed to increase sales of year 2008 and 2009 Husqvarna models currently in USA dealer inventory. (NOTE: offer not available in Canada).
