Are you starting to think it may be time to upgrade your vehicle? If so, you may be wondering whether you should buy new or used. To help you decide which route to take, we’ve outlined a few of the advantages of both below.

The Advantages of Purchasing a New Vehicle

One of the ways new vehicles standout to car shoppers is that they boast the latest in safety, technology, and design features. From advanced infotainment systems that sync with your smartphone and next generation safety technology to first-class amenities and overall superior driving ambience, chances are you can buy a vehicle that feels tailor-made for you.

While many drivers choose to buy used because of their affordable price-tags, many don’t realize that they can often secure a number of competitive financing offers, such as low or zero APR financing, low monthly payments and more.

The manufacturer warranties that come with new vehicles are typically unmatched with anything you can find with a used model. While you may have the option to purchase warranties for a used vehicle, or find one standard with a certified pre-owned vehicle, the best warranty you will find is the one that will come with a brand new model.

The Advantages of Purchasing a Used Vehicle

In most cases, used vehicles are going to be the more affordable option, which allows you to focus your money on long-term expenses, such as routine maintenance, insurance and the like. Put simply, if you’re trying to be mindful of your budget, buying used is the best option for you.

As we mentioned above, buying used typically equates to more savings in the long-term. The same rings true for insurance rates. In most cases, when you purchase used, you will likely have the option to secure a more affordable insurance rate. Just be sure to do your research so you can find the most competitive rate available—no matter which route you choose.

While cars may lose value overtime, they lose most of their value right away. With a used vehicle, however, you don’t have to worry about the immediate depreciation that occurs the moment you drive a brand new model off of the lot. Used car drivers are also typically less concerned with getting a scratch on their vehicle, especially since they’re not leasing.
