If you’re looking for a luxury vehicle that doubles as a practical commuter, you can’t go wrong with a Volvo. But even if you’ve decided to go with a Volvo, you still have to decide whether you want to invest in a new or pre-owned model.
However, before you finalize your decision, there’s also a third option to consider as well: certified pre-owned Volvo vehicles.
Why Buy New?
If you want a car that’s yours and yours alone, a new car is for you.
In addition to that sweet new-car smell, new models are in pristine condition. As long as you give them the maintenance they need, new vehicles have several worry-free years ahead of them.
Of course, the downside to buying a new vehicle is the expense, which is why you may want to consider another option before you sign on the dotted line.
Why Buy Certified Pre-Owned (CPO)?
CPO Volvo vehicles are as close to new as possible without actually being new. To start, they have to be five years old or newer and can’t have more than 80,000 miles on their odometers.
Each CPO car also has to pass a 170-point inspection, as well as road test assessments. You'll also get to enjoy a five-year/unlimited-mile warranty with a $0 deductible that usually comes with new vehicles. Every CPO Volvo also comes with a CARFAX® Vehicle History Report that includes a buyback guarantee and 24-hour emergency roadside assistance.
If you still can’t decide between a new or CPO vehicle, come check out both types at our Volvo dealership near Highland Park. Or, if you’d rather schedule a remote test drive, let us know which vehicle you like and we’ll bring it to your home.
