Why Hyundai Is One of the Best "Certified" Used Car Brands

Car buyers are running, not walking, this December to dealerships to take advantage of end-of-year car deals.

The new models are right around the corner and car makers are looking to sell off as much of their new car inventory as possible in preparation, so you can usually find a great price. But even with great savings on new vehicles available, you still might be missing out on the best deal possible. I'm talking about certified pre-owned vehicles - a special category of cars that Hyundai happens to specialize in.

Certified pre-owned cars are used vehicles, but with an added bit of protection from the dealership. These cars have undergone a safety inspection and carry a warranty to ensure that you as a potential car owner are not getting a "lemon." Because of this process, CPO vehicles tend to cost more than traditional used cars, but also come with a higher level of reliability and can usually be bought with a higher level of confidence in the quality of the car.

CPO vehicles are often sold to the dealership, refurbished then resold. They can be had with low miles and less wear and tear than traditional used cars. 

We like to mention this because Hyundai is the best in the business when it comes to CPO vehicles! In a third-party study from IntelliChoice, Hyundai was named the best CPO program around. Not only did all CPO vehicles in the study pass with a 100% inspection rate, but IntelliChoice lauded the great benefits that came with a Hyundai Certified Pre-Owned vehicle including:

• Complimentary CARFAX Vehicle History Report
• No-Charge, 3-Month Trial of SiriusXM Satellite Radio
• 24/7 Roadside Assistance
• Travel breakdown reimbursement up to $100/day; $500 per occurrence
• 1st-Day rental car reimbursement for covered repairs up to $35/day for up to 10 days
• 10-Year / 100,000 Mile Powertrain Limited Warranty (the best in the business)

So when you get a CPO vehicle from Hyundai, you're getting more than a car. You're getting the best service available and the vote of confidence that your used car is one of the best around.
