Certified Pre-Owned Audi Advantages

Should You Buy A Certified Pre-Owned or Used Audi Vehicle?

If you're currently in the market for a new vehicle, but you're not ready to buy "new," you have two other options: to drive a used vehicle or certified pre-owned vehicle. If you're torn in two directions and not sure whether you should purchase a certified pre-owned Audi from a dealership, or purchase a used vehicle from an independent seller, we hope to help with our D comparison.

The Advantages of Purchasing a Certified-Pre Owned Audi

While there may be many advantages to both, purchasing a certified pre-owned vehicle offers total and complete peace of mind with a whole wealth of benefits. For example, when drivers choose to drive a certified pre-owned Audi, they will also get limited warranty, which offers six-years or 100,000 miles (whichever comes first) of coverage. Drivers will also get Roadside Assistance and feel confident knowing each CPO model has passed a rigorous 300+ point dealer inspection for safety, quality, performance and reliability. Finally, some CPO models may even come with low finance rates that wouldn't be available with a used car.

If you're not convinced that purchasing a certified Audi is for you, read on to learn about the potential advantages and disadvantages of purchasing a used vehicle.



Avoiding CPO Problems

As with purchasing anything, there are some disadvantages to consider, however they're quite avoidable. Here are a few ways you can steer clear of potential disadvantages.

  • Make sure the CPO is genuine: If you are considering a CPO Audi, the best way to ensure that it's genuine is to purchase it from a certified dealership over a private dealer. A true CPO vehicle will feature a manufacturer sticker that outlines the price and the warranty.
  • Review the CPO inspection: If the CPO vehicle is listed at a certified dealership, it should have passed a rigorous inspected. As we mentioned above, all CPO Audi's must pass a 300+ point inspection in order to be considered a CPO. Reviewing the inspection with the dealership will help you gain peace of mind and clarity over exactly what was inspected on the vehicle. Plus, it ensures that you're actually purchasing from a certified dealer.

The Advantages of Purchasing a Used Audi


If you are looking to purchase a used vehicle, it's probably because they too come with a number of benefits including a low price tag. In fact, purchasing a used car over a CPO may be a more affordable option. They also have plenty of life as they have been proven tried and true. Another benefit to consider is that they will depreciate at a much slower rate than if you were to buy new.



With advantages, come disadvantages, however. Unlike CPO vehicles, they aren't backed with warranties that give drivers peace of mind. Nor have they been inspected as thoroughly by a certified technician. Because of this, used vehicles from an independent dealer are typically more affordable but often can't provide the same affordability in the long-run that CPO vehicles do.
