Read moreVolvo’s Certified Pre-Owned vs. New: What’s Right for You?
When it comes to driving home in a Volvo, both new and Certified Pre-Owned vehicles offer exceptional value, luxury, and peace of mind. But which is the better choice for your lifestyle, budget, and driving needs?
At Valentine Volvo in Calgary, we’re here to help you weigh the benefits of both so you can make a confident decision.
Why Buy a New Volvo?
There’s something special about the new car experience: the scent, the feel, and the knowledge that everything is factory-fresh and fully yours.
Benefits of buying new:
- Latest tech & safety: Volvo’s newest innovations—like Google built-in, Pilot Assist, and mild-hybrid or EV options—are available exclusively on new models.
- Full warranty coverage: Enjoy the full factory 4-year/80,000 km limited warranty, plus optional upgrades.
- Customization: Choose your colour, trim, wheels, and packages to suit your personal taste.
- Incentives & financing: Take advantage of manufacturer lease and finance offers, including low rates and seasonal promotions.
Best for: Drivers who want the latest features, plan to keep their vehicle long-term, or are considering hybrid or electric models like the EX30 or XC60 Recharge.
Why Buy a Certified Pre-Owned Volvo?
Volvo’s Certified Pre-Owned program is one of the most trusted in Canada. Every vehicle goes through a 170+ point inspection, is fully reconditioned, and comes with comprehensive warranty coverage—all while offering excellent value.
Benefits of buying Certified by Volvo:
- Volvo Certified warranty: Up to 6 years / 160,000 km of total coverage from the original in-service date.
- Lower cost: Save on purchase price compared to buying new, with many vehicles under lease return or low-mileage status.
- Roadside assistance: Enjoy 24/7 Volvo On Call Roadside Assistance throughout your CPO warranty.
- Peace of mind: Each CPO Volvo includes a CARFAX Canada report and must meet strict safety and quality standards.
Best for: Value-conscious drivers who want the assurance of a warranty, Volvo quality, and a lower monthly payment.
