Why Buy Certified?

When you're looking for a new ride, many people think there are only two options: new and pre-owned. New vehicles ensure quality, but can be harder on your wallet. Pre-owned vehicles are more competitively priced, but you don't always know how well the previous owner took care of the vehicle. The truth is there is a third option that combines the best of both worlds: certified pre-owned, or CPO.

CPO is the automakers way of ensuring the quality of the model. Not just any vehicle can become CPO. In order to be considered for the certification process, an Audi needs to pass a few criteria. It needs to have under 60,000 miles on the odometer, and it needs to be 5 model years old or newer. Assuming it passes those criteria, it then undergoes a rigorous 300+ point inspection process, ranging from the cabin filter to the cup holders. If even a single point does not live up to Audi's strict standards, it needs to either be repaired or replaced; otherwise, it is not good enough to become CPO. CPO vehicles also come with a vehicle history report, so you know exactly what the car has been through. CPO ensures that you only get the utmost quality in your used car.

CPO benefits continue after the purchase as well. There is a 6-year/100,000-mile (whichever comes first) bumper-to-bumper warranty from after the original purchase date. Audi keeps you covered with 24-hour roadside assistance. If you ever change your mind about your vehicle, the warranty is transferable.
