What Does Certified Pre-Owned Mean?

A CPO car is a pre-owned car, truck, SUV, or minivan that boasts a warranty like a brand-new car. A Certified Pre-Owned vehicle could have a better warranty than when it was brand-new, in some situations. ​Meanwhile, other dealers may offer cars that they ‘certify’, but it is just a play on words. Those dealers could do a certification procedure on their pre-owned vehicles, but it is not truly the same thing. A true Certified Pre-Owned vehicle undergoes a rigorous and detailed inspection process, gives new car reliability (but without the brand-new car price), and has perks like lower financing options. The one way to buy a legitimate Certified Pre-Owned vehicle is from the vehicle manufacturer’s dealership.


Condition is Guaranteed

Value is Guaranteed

The central advantage of getting a CPO car is peace of mind. Most Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles are hand-picked because they are accident-free, have lower mileage, and are generally nicer than the normal used vehicle. Once established as a likely CPO candidate, that car will be subjected to a rigorous inspection process. If the inspection procedure locates any issues with the vehicle then those issues are repaired before the car is certified. Once the car is certified, it obtains an extended warranty to protect the owner from future problems.

Better Value

Lower Cost For New-Car-Like Quality

Another perk of a CPO car is you get a vehicle that appears new, drives perfectly, and has an extended warranty, but without the new-car price tag. Since the new depreciation has already happened, a CPO car is generally among the best buys on the used car market. While a 3rd party warranty might be available on most vehicles, a Certified Pre-Owned warranty is not only more exhaustive but usually more cost-effective.

More Advantages Available

Added Advantages

Purchasing a CPO vehicle has additional benefits that buyers may not be aware of. Most CPO vehicles qualify for lower financing options and even longer loan terms. In the rare event that your Certified Pre-Owned Vehicle breaks down, courtesy roadside assistance is yet another likely benefit (and there could even be a complimentary loaner waiting for you). Prepaid maintenance options, a free satellite radio trial, and trip insurance are all other perks that could be available. Talk to our Certified Pre-Owned professionals for more information.
