CPO

Can you lease a used car? In a word, yes. But there are plenty of ramifications.

Some 2.5 million fleet vehicles are purchased annually, and most of those will wind up on used-car lots or for sale online.

Buying a used car is a great way to save money, but it pays to know and understand all the pros (and some of the cons) of the process.

Should you buy a new or used car? It depends on your needs and preferences as a buyer, but there are plenty of good vehicles out there either way.

If you're trading in a low-mileage, well-maintained late-model vehicle, your car could be a candidate for a certified pre-owned program.

The lingering effects of the inventory shortage make it more difficult to answer the common question of whether you should buy a new, used or certified pre-owned car.

A CPO certification can boost confidence when buying a used electric car, but it also boosts the car’s price tag and may not be necessary for every used EV.

There are many details to consider when comparing different CPO programs, and it pays off to read the fine print and know what you’re getting for your car-buying budget.

Can you get a lower monthly payment by leasing a CPO car? The answer is yes, as several automakers are offering a lease option for their CPO cars.

Going with a CPO vehicle can offer a break from the record high new-car prices seen during the current inventory shortage and the high depreciation rate of new vehicles.
