Top Certified Pre-Owned Deals for March 2019 According to Autotrader
ATLANTA, March 8, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- With warmer weather on the way, automakers and dealerships are gearing up in March for one of their prime selling stretches of the year. Car shoppers can make the most of dealers ready to drive sales by checking out certified pre-owned vehicles, a part of the market that's been growing in recent years.
"To kick off the spring selling season, dealers will be rolling out specials on new cars to attract customers, but car shoppers looking for a good deal should consider a certified pre-owned vehicle," said Brian Moody, executive editor for Autotrader. "Automakers continue to back their CPO programs by offering favorable pricing, financing and warranty coverage on a great selection of vehicles. Customers can drive off the lot this March with a car that looks as good as new but has a lower monthly payment."
The editors at Autotrader have rounded up some of the best CPO deals to help shoppers find that perfect certified pre-owned vehicle this month.
Autotrader Editors' Top Picks for Certified Pre-Owned Deals for March 2019

Subaru's certified pre-owned program offers desirable coverage that lasts for 7 years or 100,000 miles from the original sale date.

Toyota's certified pre-owned program is a good one, as it offers 1 year of comprehensive coverage in addition to the standard warranty coverage, along with 7 years or 100,000 miles of powertrain coverage.

Volkswagen's certified pre-owned program offers different coverage for different vehicles, though most cars get an additional 2 years or 24,000 miles added to their factory warranty. This month, shoppers looking for a CPO Volkswagen can also get a better deal than usual, as Volkswagen is offering qualified shoppers 3.99 percent interest for up to 60 months on CPO models to qualified buyers, which is a desirable long term for a pre-owned car.
