Classified Auto Website Names Top Certified Pre-Owned Deals for January 2018

ATLANTA, Jan. 17, 2018 -- It's officially 2018 and what better way to start the new year than to snap up some of the best incentive deals that January has to offer? While many car shoppers tend to see their purchasing options as black and white, new or used, a certified pre-owned (CPO) vehicle can be the perfect blend for those who are on a strict budget, but are not willing to compromise on the reliability and comfort that comes with purchasing a new vehicle.

"While CPO vehicles are often lightly used, with a long manufacturer-backed warranty, they come at a great discount from the new price," said Tara Trompeter, managing editor for Autotrader. "Enticing car shoppers further, many automakers also offer special deals and incentives on CPO vehicles. And to ring in the new year, a number of automakers have added January exclusive incentives to their already strong programs."

The editors at Autotrader have rounded up some of the top CPO deals this month to help welcome in 2018 and guide car shoppers.
