Certified Pre-Owned vs Used Cars in Newfoundland
Certified Pre-Owned vs Used Cars in Newfoundland
Posted on July 10, 2025
When shopping for a used vehicle in Newfoundland, there is usually two choices: regular used cars and Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) vehicles. So, what’s the difference and which is right for you?
What is a Certified Pre-Owned Vehicle?
A CPO vehicle is a late-model, low-kilometre used car that passed a manufacturer-backed inspection process. It often comes with extended warranty, roadside assistance, and other perks provided by the dealership.
Pros of CPO Vehicles
- Manufacturer-backed warranty (which can reach up to 100,000 km)
- Rigorous 100+ point inspection
- Newer model years, usually under 5 years old
- Added peace of mind and resale value
Pros of Regular Used Cars
- More affordable upfront cost
- Wider range of years, makes, and models
- Greater flexibility on pricing and financing
Which Option Is Best for You?
If you're looking for a newer car with warranty protection and peace of mind, go CPO. If budget is your top priority and you're okay with older models, a standard used vehicle may be better.
