CPO vs. Used Vehicles – What Differentiates Them?

L/Certified Banner
 

When you’re looking for a pre-owned vehicle to tackle your Delray Beach commute, you’ll notice that there are two different options available – CPO vs. used. But, what is the difference between used and certified pre-owned? Technically, both options are pre-owned and have been previously driven by someone else. However, compare CPO vs. used, and you’ll often find that certified pre-owned vehicles come with an added layer of inspection and protection.

 

That’s not to say that a standard used vehicle isn’t a smart choice, but CPO vehicles have been given a deeper look and often provide an additional warranty. In the case of Lexus, our certified pre-owned vehicles are referred to as L/Certified vehicles, and they come with a whole host of benefits. Today, the experts at Lexus of Palm Beach will help you dive deep into the question, “What is the difference between used and certified pre-owned?” so that you can get a better understanding of whether a pre-owned or L/Certified vehicle is better for your Lake Worth lifestyle!

What Is the Difference Between Used & Certified Pre-Owned?

When you shop for a pre-owned vehicle at our dealership, you can always expect to receive a high-quality ride that won’t let you down on the Palm Beach Gardens roads. However, opt for a Lexus certified pre-owned vehicle, also known as an L/Certified vehicle, and you’re treated to a whole new level of quality and assurance. If you’re not sure about what makes an L/Certified vehicle an even better option, we’ve got you covered. Here are the differences between used and L/Certified vehicles:

Standard Used

  • Various Options: Regular pre-owned vehicles aren’t limited to a specific manufacturer. Meaning, you’ll have the ability to choose from a wide range of makes, models, and years with a standard pre-owned vehicle.
  • Mileage Qualifications: Our standard pre-owned vehicles come in a wide range of miles. You’ll be able to opt from vehicles with 1,000 miles or 100,000 miles depending on the exact vehicle.
  • Thorough Inspection: We thoroughly inspect all of our pre-owned vehicles, whether they’re L/Certified or not. However, the used vehicles at other dealerships may not always have a thorough inspection.

L/Certified

  • 161-Point Inspection: In addition to the inspection we offer, L/Certified vehicles are looked over by trained Lexus technicians for an added layer of quality.
  • Warranty Coverage: Like a new vehicle, L/Certified vehicles come with exceptional warranty protection. The L/Certified Limited Warranty offers up to six years and unlimited miles of warranty coverage when combined with the new-vehicle basic warranty.
  • Complimentary Maintenance: To help you keep your CPO Lexus is great shape, you’ll get eligible for complimentary service for your next four factory-recommended maintenance visits for two years or 20,000 miles, whichever comes first.
  • Newer: Unlike standard used vehicles, L/Certified vehicles can only be a few model years old and have less than a certain number of miles to even be considered as L/Certified.
