Hyundai certified used vehicles (HCUV) are late-model used trucks, SUVs or cars that have had a thorough reconditioning and inspection process. This allows them to have a factory-backed limited warranty. Dealerships will often sell HCUV vehicles to provide reliable vehicles at a more reasonable price than new. They often include new-car benefits such as maintenance, roadside assistance and loaner car access.
Typically, cars that qualify are returned leased vehicles or newer trade-in vehicles that meet specific requirements, such as being within a certain number of years old, having under a certain number of miles on the odometer, having an issue-free vehicle history report and a clean title. If a used vehicle is accepted into the program, a factory-trained technician will perform an extensive inspection to ensure it meets or exceeds the program requirements. Any parts that are problematic or worn are replaced or repaired to bring the vehicle as close as possible to as-new condition.
The vehicle is then available for sale under the terms of the certified pre owned program, with a range of additional benefits typically including a warranty and low-interest financing rates. You’ll typically see higher prices because of this work that has been performed, but it’s usually only about 5-7% higher than similar used cars on the market, with luxury vehicles running slightly higher, though the price is negotiable.
Let’s start by taking a look at some of the benefits you’ll realize when purchasing HCUV cars, HCUV trucks or HCUV SUVs. To start, they cost less! Car value depreciates, often dropping in value by up to 50% in its first three years of life, while paying higher insurance, sales tax and oftentimes registration. For all the perks, you’ll pay a lot for them, whether it’s lower financing, warranties or free maintenance service.
You can get a lot more for your money when you buy certified pre-owned trucks and SUVs. Instead of buying a base model new, you can enjoy a premium trim of the same vehicle that’s only a few years older. But what about a warranty? If you buy a certified pre owned vehicle, you can receive a warranty as well as a vehicle that’s been gone over carefully. Even most used vehicles can have a warranty added to them by third-party vendors.
Used cars also offer a lot more variety than the usual 350 new models offered annually in the U.S. If you want a car that is no longer in production, a great used vehicle may be the approach to take. What’s more, there’s a lot more data to back up your purchase decision for vehicles that have been on the road a while, allowing you to avoid those exploding tires or terrible transmissions. Aftermarket communities make it simple to figure out how to handle basic repairs and maintenance, saving you even more money.
Speaking of data, it says that the certified pre-owned option includes a range of ways to improve your chances of buying a great used vehicle. Vehicle history reports allow you to avoid the risk of buying a salvage vehicle. Data used in vehicle testing is why we no longer have vehicles with 5-digit odometers, because cars last a lot longer, often into multiple hundreds of thousands of miles.
Now that you understand the benefits of buying certified pre-owned, what kind of vehicle do you need? Start by considering what you didn’t like about your last vehicle. Does it not have enough interior space? What about storage? Maybe you’ve got three kids fighting over two cupholders in the backseat. Not enough power to get you out of bad weather conditions? Whatever your reason, start by considering what you want to change in your next vehicle.
Next, consider any changes in your life that should impact your decision. Have you recently gone all-remote with work and are planning on buying a travel trailer to see the country? You’ll need to step up to a tow vehicle, typically HCUV trucks or SUVs. Serious illness or aging parents in the family requiring a lot of travel in the foreseeable future? Consider an economical hybrid to get the most out of your gas purchases. Adding to your own family? Change that coupe out for a sedan or crossover.
Planning a move in the near future? You may not need all-wheel drive in the desert, but you certainly will in the mountains. Like to go mountain biking with friends on the weekends? Look for something with a receiver hitch already installed for hauling your other wheels. Want to move out to a hobby farm? Get a light-duty truck to be able to handle those feed sacks and hay bales. By taking the time to figure out what features and tasks you’ll need to have, you can hone in on the perfect vehicle for you.
Hyundai’s reputation for quality is only surpassed by its variety. Whether you want one of the efficient certified pre-owned Hyundai Venue or Kona compact SUVs, the Tucson strikes your fancy for a mid-size SUV, the Santa Fe’s crossover looks, the adventure you’ll find in a Santa Cruz, the full-size Palisade or the alternate fuel Nexo, you’ll find these vehicles fully capable of an amazing time. Want something more sedate? Hyundai’s lineup of certified pre-owned cars includes the Accent, Elantra and Sonata sedans, along with the efficient Ioniq and Veloster compacts.
Hyundai’s certified pre-owned program adds the original 100,000 mile/10 year powertrain warranty back into the mix versus the 60,000 mile/5 year warranty if you simply buy used. However, the warranty starts from the original sale date, not when you purchased the car, the warranty is not transferable and there’s a $50 deductible.
