A CPO car is a pre-owned car, truck, SUV, or minivan that boasts a warranty akin to a brand-new car. As a matter of fact, in some rare cases, a Certified Pre-Owned car, truck, SUV, or minivan could even have a better warranty than when the vehicle was new. Meanwhile, some dealerships may offer cars that they ‘certify’, but it’s just a play on words. Those dealerships could do a certification procedure on pre-owned vehicles, but it’s not really the same thing. A manufacturer Certified Pre-Owned car is subjected to a meticulous and rigorous examination, supplies a new car experience (but without the new car price), and boasts extras like special financing options. The one place to get a legitimate CPO car is at a dealer backed by the car manufacturer.
The biggest advantage of buying a Certified Pre-Owned Vehicle is its reliability. Most Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles are picked specifically because they have lower mileage, they’re accident-free, and are generally nicer than the normal used vehicle. Once identified as a likely CPO contender, it will undergo a meticulous inspection procedure. If the inspection locates any issues those concerns are fixed before the car will be certified. Once the vehicle is certified, it gets a warranty to shield the buyer from future issues.
Another advantage of a Certified Pre-Owned Vehicle is that you get a vehicle that appears new, drives like new, and has a warranty, all without the new-car price. Since the new depreciation has already occurred, a Certified Pre-Owned Vehicle is typically one of the best values in the used car market. While you might be able to get a warranty from a 3rd party on most vehicles, a Certified Pre-Owned warranty is both more comprehensive and also more cost-effective.
There are additional perks of purchasing a CPO car. Most CPO cars are eligible for lower financing rates and also extended loan terms. In the rare instance that your Certified Pre-Owned Vehicle has issues, complimentary roadside assistance is another likely advantage (and they may even have a free loaner waiting for you). Prepaid maintenance options, a courtesy trial of satellite radio, and trip interruption insurance are other benefits that could be available. See our CPO experts for more info.
