If you’re interested in upgrading to a new Honda without going over your budget, consider buying certified pre-owned! Our dealership is sharing just six benefits of choosing a certified pre-owned Honda in this guide.

1. Thorough Inspections

To be considered a certified pre-owned, the vehicle must undergo a thorough inspection process of all of its parts. This includes exterior and interior elements along with all inner components that keep the vehicle running smoothly. Certified pre-owned inspections can determine just how much wear and tear a car has been through and what’s required to get it as close to like-new condition as possible.

2. Complete Reconditioning

After the vehicle completes its multi-point inspection, it goes through a complete reconditioning process. This ensures that it doesn’t have any faulty elements or damaged features when it hits the lot. The end result is a car that can be trusted to operate just as well as a brand-new model, giving you more peace of mind when you make the purchase.

3. Low Upfront Cost

Used vehicles are a popular choice among car buyers because of their lower upfront cost. Depending on the make and model, you can get a certified pre-owned car for hundreds to thousands cheaper than a new one. Compound this with lower sales tax and any existing dealership specials, and you scored an affordable vehicle that’s in perfect condition!

4. Wide Variety of Options

Any time you take the pre-owned route, you’ll have endless options to choose from. Brand-new inventory is limited to the current releases, which may not have an option that meets your needs. Certified pre-owned vehicles include makes and models of all kinds, including popular Honda models like the CR-V, Ridgeline, Accord, and Civic.

5. Low Mileage

To qualify as a certified pre-owned, a vehicle must have low existing mileage and be a relatively recent model. In general, most certified pre-owned vehicles have less than 50,000 miles on them.

6. Recent Models

Certified pre-owned inventories are made up of many recent models, with most options being less than ten years old. This gives you access to the latest features, including high-tech Infotainment systems and advanced safety functions, without the hefty price tag of a brand-new model.
