A Certified Pre-Owned vehicle is a pre-owned car that has a warranty akin to a brand-new car. A CPO car could even have a more robust warranty than when the car was new, in some instances. ​Meanwhile, other dealers may offer cars, trucks, SUVs, and minivans that they ‘certify’, but it can just be a play on words. Those dealerships might complete a certification process on pre-owned cars, but it’s not really the same thing. A true CPO car undergoes a strict and meticulous inspection, provides new car security (just without the brand-new car price), and has perks like special financing options. The only way to buy a legitimate CPO vehicle is at a dealer backed by the car manufacturer.
The main advantage of getting a CPO car is its reliability. Most CPO vehicles are picked specifically because they have low miles, are accident-free, and are typically nicer than the regular pre-owned car. Once determined to be a possible CPO candidate, it will be subjected to a rigorous inspection process. If the inspection locates any issues those concerns are repaired before the vehicle is certified. Once a car is certified, it gets a warranty to guard against problems in the future.
Another advantage of purchasing a CPO vehicle is you get a vehicle that appears new, drives new, and has a warranty, all without the new-car price. A CPO car is typically one of the best deals in the market because the new-car depreciation has already occurred. While a 3rd party warranty may be available on almost any vehicle, a Certified Pre-Owned warranty is both more robust and also more cost-effective.
Purchasing a Certified Pre-Owned Vehicle has some additional benefits that buyers may not be aware of. Most CPO cars are eligible for better interest options and also longer loan term lengths. In the rare possibility that your Certified Pre-Owned Vehicle has problems, complimentary roadside assistance is yet another possible perk (and they could even have a free loaner car waiting for you). A complimentary trial of satellite radio, prepaid maintenance options, and trip interruption insurance are all other upgrades that may be available. See one of our CPO experts for more info.
